Hell yeah, Happiness Patrol and Greatest Show are two of the most underrated stories in the show's history. The Seventh Doctor's era is now COMPLETE on Blu-Ray. Love to see it.
Agreed. So glad there's been a recent surge of Greatest show spin off stuff (Big Finish story, special audio release, author released his Paradise Towers compilation etc).
@@TediousMilkshake Bit hard to do it with the missing stories...shame too, as he is definitely one of my favourite too. I'm thankful that we can at least see them in the cartoon and audio adaptions. Looking forward to the inevitable Wheel in Space remake.
Hopefully they include the documentary from the happiness Patrol DVD in which the writers of the classic series discuss the doctor's political philosophy and decide that he is a libertarian, a philosophy that is sadly absent from modern Doctor Who.
"Every great decision creates ripples, like a huge boulder dropped in a lake. The ripples merge, rebound off the banks in unforeseeable ways. The heavier the decision, the larger the waves, the more uncertain the consequences." - The Seventh Doctor, Remembrance of the Daleks
Awesome! It’s a shame that the original shorts for the trailer got cut, but it’s clear they put a lot of effort into still making the extras worthwhile.
At least the original trailer for the 25th season works as well now as it did in 1988 (the bookend scenes with 7 and Ace) it makes this a great trailer.
Ace and the "Professor" have been my favorite pairs on Doctor Who. Remembrance of the Daleks and the Happiness Patrol were my favorite episodes of his run.
How long before we get the McCoy collection with all 3 series, Dimensions in Time, the TV Movie and extra special extras though to draw more money from us?
I think the real reason the sets slowed down for a bit was because they were preparing for going the extra mile on every set they do! This looks absolutely incredible!
Heck, yeah! 25 is definitely one of the show's most solid seasons, and Remembrance isn't just one of the best Dalek stories or anniversary stories (even though it wasn't technically an anniversary story), but one of the show's greatest stories in general. The Seventh Doctor's era is finally complete on Blu-Ray, that's wicked, Professor!
My Doctor, 7 is just perfection, the little hints of darkness in the Timelord that get explored further in Season 26, fantastic portrayal by Sylvester McCoy
The Special Weapons Dalek blowing up a simple gate is still, to this day, one of the most satisfying explosions in TV history. They had to do some editing to save the scene (seeing as the prop-Daleks were heavily damaged, and the locals thought that the area was being bombed by the IRA), but hot-dayum, that explosion is utterly delicious. Can't wait to see these cleaned-up episodes with shiny new effects. My favorite story may be in Season 26, but Season 25 is fantastic. Greatest Show, Remembrance, and Happiness Patrol have always been some of my favorites, and while I'm not keen on Silver Nemesis, even that has some very memorable moments that will benefit from the update.
Seasons left to do- First Doctor- Season 1 Season 3 Second Doctor- Season 4 Season 5 Season 6 Third Doctor- Season 7 Season 11 Fourth Doctor- Season 13 Season 16 Fifth Doctor- Season 21 Eighth Doctor- Wilderness Years
im calling it, season 5 will be next and our first Troughton. alot say 6 but The Space Pirates is a glaring issue. While compared to season 5, which is "complete" through animation and an already done, official BBC recon for Wheel in space. Doing 5 next instead of 6 would give even more time for something to be done for the space pirates(as the sheer lack of resources make a proper photo recon nearly impossible) while also giving us our first Troughton finally
@@ShanghaiRooster Unlikely. Their deal is only for distribution of the new seasons. Anything that isn't going on Disney+ has no funding from Disney and seen as how these special editions are labelled as "blu ray exclusives" I doubt we'll suddenly get a surprise announcement.
@@bryanpypops8073 Yes, obviously! Nothing Doctor Who is a Disney production including the new season, it's a Bad Wolf Production. Disney don't just give money to something that they aren't going to get any benefit on. Don't act smug with a response that makes no sense.
Yes, indeed. Every droplet of Sylvesters' gob, that splatters onto the camera lens, will be there in wonderfully high definition, for us to behold, marvel at and wonder how many cuts for lens wiping Sylv inadvertently caused. I gather the entire production staff and crew were bedecked in mackintoshes and wellingtons for his utterance of 'protuberances' - how very lucky and insightful they were! The resulting expulsion of bodily fluid from Sylvs' mouth whilst just halfway through that word, destroyed an entire street full of cars, lampposts and some small animals that were nearby. His second attempt created a tsunami of 'gob' which gushed forth, wiping out a nearby family enjoying a pic-nic. Alas, no remains of the family have ever been found.
@DomH75 My hope is they're taking their time with enhancing that effect and getting it just right for the Blu Ray Release. I hope a Similar effort is done for some of the Ropey blue screen effects in 'Inferno' for the Series 7 Boxset (that's one of my Favourite 3rd Doctor Serials).
A big favourite season, plus extended versions of all of them, plus some gorgeous CGI options, plus that VHS Silver Nemesis US documentary, and what look like some funny and information and bittersweet (Dursley) extras. Even by the standards of the Collection sets, this really looks like a special one.
To the surprise of no one and hey one we can be truly thankful for. Extended cuts, new effects and special editions of each story is such a massive win!
Looking forward to some new effects comparison videos!!!! Are you going to do a video comparing the effects from the 2009 version of Enlightenment with the 2023 version?
No announcement trailer? Those trailers were the Best. I hope You keep doing them.but still thanks for still releasing the sets i have all previous ones.
Sad that they’ve stopped making those special scenes with returning actors for the collection trailers, but it’s understandable. Sylvester isn’t getting any younger…
I think they see the Tales of the Tardis as a replacement for them. Sort of unfortunate, since the Tales are just little intro/outro scenes all shot on the same set rather than proper varied short films like we were getting for a while.
So thrilled they got the old NJN “Making Of Doctor Who” documentary from PBS in America! If you haven’t seen it, it is shot during production of Silver Nemesis and is a great snapshot of production of Doctor Who near the end of the classic era.
Fun thing: today I was thinking about seasons that didn't get the Collection release. I was thinking about 2 Pertwee seasons: his first and his last (aka "the only with Liz Shaw" and "Sarah Jane's first one") . But I think because those seasons needs cleaner picture (with all colorasation of B&W surviving material) and Invasion of the Dinosaurs needs good Dinosaurs animation and not cheap puppets they can wait for the future
Yep Season 7 has the hardest time (and I'm looking forward to it the most, like, I must have bought Inferno a few times by now and am scrounging for every last drop of it), and Season 11 needs the most effort for the dinosaurs. We're JUST ABOUT at the point where a project like this can scratch and sub-in the CGI Dinos. It deserves it.
@@ShanghaiRooster yep nice thought but no. And these are low-budget productions that sell probably fewer than you think. The goal with the DVD range, and now the Blu-ray range, has always been to take it slowly and carefully and sparingly, and get the most out of a thin budget - which is contrasted to the show they're editing: The original filming was HECTIC, and had a proper budget, even if it felt cheap compared to other shows. It was only "cheap" in the sense that it needed to go to other planets and do things "normal" shows didn't, and this stretched the budget or rushed the production or both. A lot of what goes wrong (wobbly sets, poor acting) is down to time running out. There's a third element - which is neglect, and it happened a bit in the late 1970s and a lot in the late 1980s, building up along the way. Thankfully the team behind Season 25 was seriously fighting back.
The first Doctor to have all his stories released on Blu-ray. I really thought it would've been Tom Baker to have that honor but then again, he does have the most seasons. Anyway, already pre-ordered. Those new special effects are fantastic, btw!
Love the fact that The Happiness Patrol is getting the CGI treatment. The original never looked like it was a real place. I look forward to watching the new cut. The whole season looks even more wonderful now. I cannot wait to see what they've done!
Tbh Im happy with Season 25 and Im grateful but, I can't believe we have our first complete doctor before we have all our doctors with one set. Troughton is calling
second complete. Colin Baker was finished a while ago. But yeah, it's a shame there's no Troughton as yet thanks to the BBC junking so much of his stuff.
@@ShanghaiRooster can't have Colin complete without The Twin Dilemma and that's still to come on Season 21! I assume it'll still be Davison's face on the spine though...
. Who fandom, the media, the general public at large and the BBC itself weren't too keen on this era back in 1988 but I absolutely loved watching these episodes live and the season the followed. The current reboot doesn't come anywhere close to the timeless genius of McCoy's final two seasons.
This is a superb run of stories and a clear example of how marvellous Dr Who can be(take note RTD) when the casting, writing, vision and production coalesce: Cartmel and JNT didn’t have Disney money but they had drive, passion and intelligence. The stories are entertaining and beautifully written yet manage to land heavy Political punches but in a collegiate and humane manner(take more notes RTD)…..
Mind your language: I did not “attack” RTD.I offered commentary on the qualitative differences apparent as between his current failed Doctor WHO and an era which actually DID address Political issues in a meaningful and coherent way.His current Dr Who has no future and faces imminent cancellation without a huge course correction.The course correction will not come as he will brook no dissent.No one looks at his current output fondly, if they look at all.The viewers have spoken and they deem his vision that of a man who has forgotten how to entertain.
Resorting to insult as opposed to reasoned debate is the refuge of a man who does not have an argument or an opinion of his own. Show a little kindness and compassion and moderate your language.Or does your goodwill extend only to those that you perceive to be your “side”? I don’t care to continue this discourse if you cannot communicate without firstly misrepresentation of my initial contribution and then secondly using dismissive and insulting language. Personal attacks are never excusable.
Hell yeah, Happiness Patrol and Greatest Show are two of the most underrated stories in the show's history. The Seventh Doctor's era is now COMPLETE on Blu-Ray. Love to see it.

Sylvester McCoy was an underrated Doctor. He was able to do the comedy and eccentricity while showing a dark and Machiavellian side.
Yet totally incapable of pronouncing words like 'protuberance' without gobbing over all within a 3 mile radius.

My Doctor and companion. Always.
Remembrance of the Daleks is one of the *greatest* stories ever written for Doctor Who
It's all right. Besides not making a lot of sense continuity wise, it doens't hold a candle to Happiness Patrol or Greatest Show.
