Doctor Who: Season 7 DVD Release Date

The DVD (and Blu-ray) release date for season 7 of Doctor Who has finally been announced. The happy day is September 24. I have been waiting for this for quite a while. I recorded all of the episodes when they aired on BBC American, but "The Angels Take Manhattan" was ruined when my DVD recorder started erasing the shows I recorded. Such a black time. So, even though I have all of the episodes except "The Angels Take Manhattan," I still look forward to owning the official set, since I have all six seasons of the new Doctor Who already.

I am excited for the extras on the DVD, which include:
  • Audio Commentaries
  • Behind the Scenes Featurettes
  • Episode Prequels
  • Doctor Who on The Nerdist
  • Doctor Who in the U.S.
  • Last Days of the Ponds
  • Pond Life
  • The Science of Doctor Who
  • The Companions
  • Doctor Who at Comic Con

Who fans, are you excited for the release of season 7 on DVD? What are your favorite episodes? Least favorite?

Please indicate if you are including spoilers in your comments. I have friends who still haven't seen the Ponds' last episode, or any of the second half of season 7. Thanks!

Great News for Doctor Who Fans

One of the Doctor's best companions, according to this fan, was Donna Noble. The chemistry between David Tennant and Catherine Tate was electric - though not in a romantic way. Their exchanges were sometimes reminiscent of Benedick and Beatrice from Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing. So it didn't come as much of a surprise when they were cast opposite each other in a West End production of Much Ado About Nothing as Benedick and Beatrice.

I was hoping that the production would be filmed so that those of us who didn’t get a chance to go to London to see it live could enjoy the pairing of the Doctor and Donna, I mean, David and Catherine again.

I am ecstatic that I won’t be disappointed.

The production will be available on DVD in Britain, and eventually it will be available in the United States.

Here is a sneak peak of the delight in store for us in the unknown future. It will have to be enough to keep us content, if not satisfied, until then.



Thanks to Megan for making me aware of this great sneak peek.
