In the US, the release of Tom Baker - Complete Season One was marked with a screening of the aforementioned omnibus edition of Genesis of the Daleks in theatres across the country. The release of Tom Baker - Complete Season Seven was similarly promoted with an omnibus screening of Logopolis, demonstrating the revised visual effects. Both screenings featured exclusive bonus content after the showing, and were organised by Fathom Events in partnership with BBC Studios. New episodes with Sylvester McCoy, Sophie Aldred, plus companions Janet Fielding, Sarah Sutton, Anneke Wills and Jodie-Whittaker-era writers Pete McTighe & Joy Wilkinson. Including scripts, exclusive unseen BBC production files, the Radio Times 20 th Anniversary Special and other rarities. PLUS LOTS MORE

So to be clear, it’s not about rushing the hardworking people on these sets, and I don’t agree with Levine’s take on the silence. For me it’s the not knowing at all what’s going on. It’s only thanks to @Gordon in the comments above regarding Mark Ayers that we finally have some kind of granule of a hint that it may be the actual workload proving greater than maybe initially intended towards a release date with regards to Peter Davison and co. Anonymous, I’m referring to where you say flash drive would be easier then you might as well go for Britbox streaming I would say if you are going to do straight through your TV rather than change a disc but Blu-Rays are better of course. In some cases, visual effects have been improved - improved exterior shots of the Pharos Project were used to replace models in some instances, including brand-new location shots filmed using drones. As with such improvements on the DVD range, these changes are optional and can be enabled or disabled at will. Serials have also been remixed in 5.1 surround where possible.As with the UK releases, disc replacements were made available for seasons 12 and 18, and reissues included the replacement discs. An additional promotional DVD was released in DWM 544 on 17 October 2019 as part of the magazine's 40th anniversary, though it is not part of the official 'The Collection' boxset run. Occasionally, material from the standalone DVD releases of serials is moved to a particular season release if it is deemed a more appropriate fit. For example, Tomorrow's Times: The Sixth Doctor, originally included on the Vengeance on Varos Special Edition DVD, was included instead on the Bluray release of Season 23. Most notably, Coming Soon trailer for at-the-time forthcoming DVD releases of serials have been moved to the disc for the preceding story. For example, the trailer for The E-Space Trilogy box set, originally included on the DVD release for Battlefield, is included in the Season 18 set on the disc for Meglos. it’s been half a year and we still don’t know what’s going on with this range, and due to reselling, I can fully empathise with fans that both don’t have the confidence to invest in catchup spending in the hundreds of pounds, while on the other hand not having a single clue what’s to become of this range.

If not that, then bring the Standard editions up to sync with Limited, instead of delaying them by over a year plus.

Coming Soon to Blu-ray: Doctor Who The Collection — Season 20

I may be in the minority but I adore The Web Planet. It’s so imaginative and creative. The Zarbi are wonderful and the shots of the Menoptera in flight are superb. Similarly, I believe that The Crusade is a bit of a masterpiece. Written and performed largely as a play, it features some wonderful performances from Julian Glover, Jean Marsh and Bernard Kay. By contrast The Space Museum is only wonderful for the first episode. Then it turns a bit rubbish. Our second Dalek story of the Season The Chase is also not particularly strong but is thoroughly entertaining. Finally, with new companion Steven Taylor in tow, Season 2 finishes on a real high note with The Time Meddler. The introduction of Peter Butterworth as The Monk is a sublime bit of casting within an excellent story. Bonus Features

Season 24 only had Limited and Standard out at the same time due to poor sales. Too many more instances of that and then BBC may pull the plug so I wouldn’t be praising that if I were you, if you want them to complete all sets and possibly do Wilderness etc.
