Doctor Who - Get Lost In Time with The Doctor

Posted by David Lambert

Never broadcast in the US, restored and loaded with extras: The episodes on Doctor Who - The Lost In Time Collection offer an enticing glimpse into 'lost' stories that have achieved legendary status. Fans can relish rare appearances of the Daleks, Cybermen and Yeti, as well as an episode from the second Doctor Who story by Robert Holmes, the series' most influential writer. Also, guest star turns by Julian Glover (Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade), Michael Gough (Batman) and Jean Marsh (Upstairs, Downstairs).

New to video is Episode 2 of "The Daleks' Master Plan," the story that marked the series debut of Nicholas Courtney, who later returned time and again as Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart. Also includes episodes from: The Crusade, The Daleks' Masterplan, The Celestial Toymaker, The Underwater Menace, The Moonbase, The Faceless Ones, The Evil of the Daleks, The Abominable Snowman, The Enemy of the World, The Web of Fear, The Wheel in Space and The Space Pirates.

You'll be able to buy these all together on 3 DVDs as "Doctor Who - The Lost In Time Collection." Also available separately are Doctor Who - Lost In Time: The William Hartnell Years (a single disc release) and Doctor Who - Lost In Time: The Patrick Troughton Years (a 2-DVD release).

November 2nd is the in-store date for these releases. The Hartnell 1-DVD item goes for $24.98 SRP, the Troughton 2-DVD item goes for $34.98, and you can get both releases together - all 3 discs in two keepcases, tucked in a lovely slipcover - for the economical cost of $49.98 SRP (a ten dollar savings over getting them separately).

Includes episodes 1 and 3 of "The Crusade"; episodes 2, 5 and 10 of "The Daleks' Master Plan"; episode 4 of "The Celestial Toymaker"; episode 3 of "The Underwater Menace"; episodes 2 and 4 of "The Moonbase"; episodes 1 and 3 of "The Faceless Ones"; episode 2 of "The Evil of the Daleks"; episode 2 of "The Abominable Snowmen"; episode 3 of "The Enemy of the World"; episode 1 of "The Web of Fear"; episodes 3 and 6 of "The Wheel In Space" and episode 2 of "The Space Pirates."

    This is obviously the same item we heard (and reported about) a few months ago, under a different name. Our thanks to reader Tory Danna, who first heard about this particular title on the release a couple of weeks ago, from a BBCAmerica service agent. We would have gotten this news to our readers sooner, but until today's announcement, nobody at BBC would admit that this title existed! Stay tuned, and if we find out anything more, we'll bring it to you just in "time"!
