Jon Pertwee
Third Doctor
1970 - 1974

DVD

BBC DVD Doctor Who Logo In 2001 the BBC started to release Doctor Who adventures on DVD along with additional extra features and commentary. The DVDs offer digitally remastered picture and sound quality, and in some cases the soundtrack has been enhanced to 5.1 surround sound, and special effects have been enhanced wth the use of CGI.

I've reversed the polarity of the neutron flow, so the TARDIS should be free of the force field now.
