Radio Free Skaro #209 – Eevanerab! Tumal Tumal! Verram Verram! Xarak Namaan!
< Warren ran for cover when he learned Time-Flight was the next up to bat in the Classic Series Commentaries series, so Paul from The Pharos Project podcast was strongarmed into filling his shoes. The crew did their level best to not talk about the story at hand thanks to its less than stellar production values and execution, but from time to time nevertheless felt compelled to address what was on their screens. In a cruel twist of fate, the Randomizer decided next week’s commentary was going to be for another story that one of the crew, as with Time-Flight, greatly dislikes… |

Doctor Who Series 5 DVD/BR Update
<
November 9 has now been confirmed as the North American release date for the Series 5 box set on DVD and Blu-Ray, and DVD box art has now been made available (previously only Blu-Ray art was available). Along with the “Meanwhile, in the TARDIS…” content mentioned previously, the feature list confirms story commentaries. While the past few series have featured both DVD- and internet-based commentary releases, the powers that be chose to not release internet-based commentaries for Series 5, so including them on the DVDs will make a lot of fans clamouring for such content very happy.

November North America Doctor Who DVDs
<  |
| November 2 will see the North American release of two Classic Doctor Who Cybermen stories, Tom Baker’s Revenge of the Cybermen and Sylvester McCoy’s Silver Nemesis. Neither of these two stories is often rated very highly relative to some other Cybermen stories but they’ve both got certain charms. Unlike the UK, and as has happened a lot of late in North America, the titles will be sold separately. It should be noted the Silver Nemesis release is the transmission version rather than the extended cut issued on VHS in the 1990s.

Doctor Who Series 5 DVD/Blu-Ray – November 9?
<
Today the LA Times is reporting the DVD/Blu-Ray release of Series 5 of Doctor Who will hit store shelves November 9th. Given the source, this should represent the North American release date and may or may not coincide with the UK release date. As yet neither BBC Worldwide nor Warner (which distributes Who DVDs/Blu-Rays in North America) has confirmed the release date but that is expected to happen soon.
The cool bit of news is there will be a bonus called “Meanwhile, in the TARDIS…” comprised of two specially-filmed segments to bridge some story gaps. What a delightfully interesting concept to say the least!
Edit: Reports are now coming in the UK release date will be November 8.]]>
Radio Free Skaro #207 – Please Do Not Throw Hands At Me
< The Radio Free Skaro Classic Series Commentaries kept trucking along this week with a look at another Tom Baker story. The Robots of Death, a wonderful murder mystery, goes under examination in the form of the Three Who Rule jib-jabbering their way through four episodes of Chris Boucher goodness. Oh, and there’s some like casting news… or something… about the 2010 Doctor Who Christmas Special. And Torchwood news. And DVD news. But that’s all peanuts compared to robots! ROBOTS! |
