Revisitations 3 DVD Box Set

articleimage_428
Doctor Who’s DVD producers 2|entertain have now revealed what the contents of the much-anticipated Revisitations 3 DVD box set. The box set will contain the three classic stories, ‘Tomb of the Cybermen’, ‘The Three Doctors’, and ‘The Robots of Death’ (FYI the covers shown are NOT the revisitations versions but the original DVD release covers).

For those who aren’t familiar with the Revisitations box sets, the premise is that 2|entertain are taking three classic Doctor Who titles that have already been released on DVD (but quite a few years ago) and updating them with much more bonus features and better picture and sound quality than the original DVD release.

The story by Kit Pedler and Gerry Davis is the earliest surviving complete story with the Second Doctor. Joining Patrick Troughton in the cast are Frazer Hines as Jamie, Deborah Watling as Victoria, George Roubicek as Captain Hopper, George Pastell as Eric Klieg, Clive Merrison as Jim Callum, Cyril Shaps as John Viner, Shirley Cooklin as Kaftan and Roy Stewart as Toberman.

      No details of the release date other than it'll be this year have been revealed yet, so I'm afraid I can't help you on that, sorry.

      Thanks for commenting, Lewis :D

    4. The 3 Doctors is a favorite story of mine, it could really do with some new effects to make it worth while buying it again. Shame they aren't doing that for any of these stories.
