    Laughing my head off. These retards are totally out of their minds.

    The Blu-Ray release will have plenty of extras to keep us going
    during these dark times too... forget Disney+ or the iPlayer,
    let's get physical!


    No, let's not give these woke retards our money and instead spend it on something which doesn't constantly insult, attack, and demean its own
    audience for not accepting and praising their sick and degenerate
    garbage as the bestest birthday suit ever.

    I say buy, buy, buy... the limited edition packaging Blu-Rays
    look GREAT on the shelf. You can't take them with you but every
    shelf needs some sort of "Doctor Who" merch on it... even if the

    Only DVD and CD. Not going to waste my money on a Blu-Ray drive a 4 to 8
    times the price when they can't play 4K discs on a modern PC.

    Or does playing a Blu-Ray blow up computers like using

    They can't play 4K discs unless you downgrade the firmware and use other hacking techniques.

    The sex obsessed child grooming pervert RTD destroyed the entire
    franchise so there's nothing to like about it any more.

    It seems I might have got Series 13 mixed up with Season 13 thanks to
    the pervert’s renaming of series as seasons and seasons as series over
    and over again.

    You "might"? Is that your way of saying you made a mistake

    But yes, Jodie Whittaker was Series 13, Tom Baker was Season 13.
    It is confusing but the clue should have been that the "Doctor
    Who: The Collection" Blu-ray range is for the classic era of the
    show.

    Plus, I doubt there's ANYONE that would claim Series 13 is one

    All you had to do was click the link! It's a great set, with
    cool extras. If people didn't like SEASON 13 of the show then
    there's no hope for them!

    Doctor Who is finished. The sex obsessed pervert destroyed it

    "Doctor Who" will never die whilst the fans keep it alive... so
    while I am breathing I will collect the BBC Blu-ray's and listen
    to the Big Finish audios until the show returns to our TV
    screens... and if it turns out that I have outgrown the modern
    version of the show - whenever it does come back, I will just put
    a 3rd/4th Doctor Blu-ray into the machine and carry on watching

    Of course, it is an easy enough mistake to make (clearly!) so
    we won't hold it against him. Every Doctor Who 'fan' should know
    that Season 13 was a Tom Baker season though, and if they didn't,

    The sex obsessed child grooming pervert RTD destroyed the entire

    Then you’ll be happy to learn that RTD wasn’t involved in

    Will the Timeless Child still is a bad linger?


    For you, grammar is just something that happens to other people,
    isn’t it?

    That should be

    Well The Timeless Child is a bad linger.

    Er...

    Did it take you this long, Blueshirt, to realise Aggy was
    referring to the THIRTEENTH DOCTOR rather than the THIRTEENTH
    SERIES of Doctor Who??

    No actually, because Series 13 WAS a 13th Doctor series!!!

    Aww!! O.K., I'll let you have that (New Series 13 v Classic 13!!) ....
    but I still think there was a mix-up there!!

    Did it take you this long to realise that Aggy actually mixed
    up Season 13 with Series 13 though?! ;-)

    You say 'Either', I say 'EIther!!' (yes, I know, doesn't quite work in
    text mode!!)

    Of course, it is an easy enough mistake to make (clearly!) so
    we won't hold it against him. Every Doctor Who 'fan' should know
    that Season 13 was a Tom Baker season though, and if they didn't,
    all they had to do was click the link and read the article
    provided. Simples.

    In hindsight, I think RTD tries too hard to be clever and just

    They won't upgrade your VHS tapes, but they have upgraded the

    they have added is usually quite good too, "Behind the Sofa" and
    the new interviews especially. (Tom Baker is looking very old in
    that bit in the trailer for the Blu-ray that I posted. It'll
    likely be the last word on those days from him!)

    RTD has nothing to do with the "Doctor Who: The Collection"

    A fan promoting "Doctor Who" here should be what this place is
    about, especially during the quiet periods when the show is
    off-air. I mean, this is a Doctor Who newsgroup after all, so
    people here should - in theory - be like minded and have some
    interest. The fact you don't is irrelevant.

    Plus, Season 13 is one of the best seasons of Doctor Who out
    there... really. If there's any Doctor Who classic era box set
    worth the fifty quid - this is it!

    I am of the opinion that most of these people who object,

    them anyway!

    I have tons of Doctor Who stories on VHS which I bought and
    paid for. When is the BBC going to upgrade them to Blu-Ray?

    They won't upgrade your VHS tapes, but they have upgraded the

    Well they're going to have to since they say I don't own them. And by
    law I have the right to a backup.

    stories, hence "The Collection" Blu-ray range... the new stuff
    they have added is usually quite good too, "Behind the Sofa" and
    the new interviews especially. (Tom Baker is looking very old in
    that bit in the trailer for the Blu-ray that I posted. It'll
    likely be the last word on those days from him!)


    Ah yes, the extras, including Ncuti Gatwa destroying canon.

    It was a general observation though and not wholly aimed at
    you, as our resident village idiot is in my Bozo Bin and he
    buys nothing!

    It's virtue signalling in a way... Hey! Look at me I am
    refusing to buy a Doctor Who Blu-ray* as I object to the
    Timeless child... that'll show 'em. Fuck you BBC. You ain't
    getting my money. But in reality, they have never bought a
    Doctor Who Blu-ray* anyway!

    Wrong, well I can't play Blu-Rays since I don't have a player.
    I have the stories on VHS. Not sure if I can still play those
    either, but I'm not going to buy any new merchandise unless
    RTD goes and the Timeless Child monster is removed from canon.

    RTD has nothing to do with the "Doctor Who: The Collection"

    Think again.

    Blu-ray range and he had nothing to do with any of those stories
    either, so that is a lame argument. Not being able to play
    Blu-rays is a good enough reason though.

    Totally wrong. Have you read the Radio Time article on it?


    It's just self-importance, all for show... and nobody here
    actually cares.

    [* Blu-ray, BF audio, action figure etc.]

    If you don't care then why are you trying to line the BBC's
    malicious pockets by getting people to buy the Blu-Rays?

    I am on a commission!

    A fan promoting "Doctor Who" here should be what this place is

    Doctor Who ended when it was turned into insane woke masturbation by the showrunners.

    about, especially during the quiet periods when the show is
    off-air. I mean, this is a Doctor Who newsgroup after all, so

    The show has been off-air since at least 2017.

    people here should - in theory - be like minded and have some
    interest. The fact you don't is irrelevant.

    Plus, Season 13 is one of the best seasons of Doctor Who out
    there... really. If there's any Doctor Who classic era box set
    worth the fifty quid - this is it!
    Not any longer it isn't after it appears that Pyramids of Mars has been
    re-cut to include Ncuti Gatwa and Millie Gibson. It looks like I was
    right after all.

    It is a good job I already have the story on VHS.

    "Doctor Who" will never die whilst the fans keep it alive...
    so while I am breathing I will collect the BBC Blu-ray's and
    listen to the Big Finish audios until the show returns to
    our TV screens... and if it turns out that I have outgrown
    the modern version of the show - whenever it does come back,
    I will just put a 3rd/4th Doctor Blu-ray into the machine
    and carry on watching my favourite episodes until the light
    goes dim and I know no more.

    I hope we're in the same hallway at the nursing home, so it'll
    be easy to have watch parties.

    Speak to my children... they're the ones that will be shoving me
    into care when the time comes... I'm sure they will have binned
    my Doctor Who DVDs/Blu-rays and CD's by then though... so we'll
    probably have to watch those classic Doctor Who episodes via a
    stream to an implant in our brain, or something...

    Are you unhealthy?

    I regret giving up my VHS copies of Red Dwarf. I'll never be able to see "Parallel Universe" properly again.


    The original version is still on there in episodic form but who knows
    what they've done to it. The VHS version is in movie format without any
    breaks I think.

    Physical copies of TV shows you like are always the way to go...

    Of course, you need to keep them... and something to play them

    RTD has nothing to do with the "Doctor Who: The Collection"

    Think again.

    I don't need to think again. I read the article that I posted
    a link to here two days ago... did you?

    I know what the extras are, but they are just that, extras. The
    decision to include the 75 min 2024 edit of "Pyramids of Mars"
    was made for the completionists. It hasn't replaced the
    original broadcast version.

    There's an omnibus version of "Pyramid of Mars" also included in
    the set, and that doesn't replace the original four-episode
    broadcast version of the story either. That's what these Blu-ray
    sets do, they try to include as much as they can as bonus
    features.

    Yes, RTD is responsible for one of the bonus features, so
    "nothing" was not 100% correct... sue me!

    Blu-ray range and he had nothing to do with any of those
    stories either, so that is a lame argument. Not being able
    to play Blu-rays is a good enough reason though.

    Totally wrong. Have you read the Radio Time article on it?

    As I said, I am aware of what the extras on the Season 13 set
    are. I posted a link to the original article announcing the
    release remember? (Which clearly you didn't actually read or
    you would have known it wasn't Jodie's Series 13!)

    The original episodes from 1975 are the main feature of the
    "Season 13" set, obviously, as they are what constitute Season
    13... and RTD had nothing to do with them. People wouldn't buy
    or not buy a Blu-ray set because of an extra thrown in on a
    bonus disc. Well, unless they were the sort of person that had a
    tiny mind!

    Fortunately for you, if you can't play Blu-ray discs you won't
    have to make that decision.

    Plus, Season 13 is one of the best seasons of Doctor Who out
    there... really. If there's any Doctor Who classic era box
    set worth the fifty quid - this is it!

    Not any longer it isn't after it appears that Pyramids of Mars
    has been re-cut to include Ncuti Gatwa and Millie Gibson. It
    looks like I was right after all.

    <face palm> The "Tales of the Tardis: Pyramids of Mars" edit was
    broadcast on BBC Four and is on the BBC iPlayer, so of course it
    was going to be thrown in as an 'extra'. It's only an hour or so
    long and it is not the actual four-episode broadcast story. It
    is not a part of Season 13... it is just a bonus feature.

    Nobody is forcing an extra thrown in as a bonus down anyone's
    throats...

    It is a good job I already have the story on VHS.

    You can't play Blu-ray discs anyway, so your moans are
    irrelevant.

    I do have the old BBC "Pyramids of Mars" DVD if you want it
    though? I won't need it anymore obviously. So I'll send it to
    you free of charge... that can be your back-up! Just say the
    word.

    Oh boy. If they're pulling that, hard copies are the only
    way to go.

    I regret giving up my VHS copies of Red Dwarf. I'll never be
    able to see "Parallel Universe" properly again.

    The original version is still on there in episodic form
    but who knows what they've done to it.

    I'll get back to you when I've seen it.

    The VHS version is in movie format without any breaks
    I think.

    Yes. And that - the omnibus version - is on the set too. (As an
    extra!)

    Of course, you need to keep them... and something to play
    them on too... :-)

    Exactly. I had no way to play them. I figured I'd probably
    never own a VHS player again.

    I haven't had a VHS player in years. (Decades?) I do still
    have a handful of the BBC Doctor Who VHS tapes in a box
    in the loft. I sold/traded/gave away the rest. Nobody wants VHS
    tapes anymore so what's left will stay left.

    VHS isn't a great format for permanence anyway. Tape distorts
    after enough viewings. A multi-tiered approach may be ideal.

    I've moved my main collecting on to the Blu-rays as I have a
    good Sony Blu-ray player and a decent-ish TV. How long they will
    last for though is anyone's guess... I'm hoping they outlive me!

    Watch party for Genesis of the Daleks still going on, BTW, if
    you're free.

    The football is on... Real Madrid v Dortmund.

    I could probably do "Genesis of the Daleks" scene by scene in my
    head anyway... I've seen it that many times. A classic! Hope ye
    are all enjoying it.

    I can't play Blu-Rays since I don't have a player. I
    have the stories on VHS. Not sure if I can still play
    those either, but I'm not going to buy any new
    merchandise unless RTD goes and the Timeless Child
    monster is removed from canon.

    RTD has nothing to do with the "Doctor Who: The Collection"

    Think again.

    I don't need to think again. I read the article that I posted
    a link to here two days ago... did you?

    I know what the extras are, but they are just that, extras. The
    decision to include the 75 min 2024 edit of "Pyramids of Mars"
    was made for the completionists. It hasn't replaced the
    original broadcast version.

    There's an omnibus version of "Pyramid of Mars" also included in
    the set, and that doesn't replace the original four-episode
    broadcast version of the story either. That's what these Blu-ray
    sets do, they try to include as much as they can as bonus
    features.

    Yes, RTD is responsible for one of the bonus features, so
    "nothing" was not 100% correct... sue me!

    Blu-ray range and he had nothing to do with any of those
    stories either, so that is a lame argument. Not being able
    to play Blu-rays is a good enough reason though.

    Totally wrong. Have you read the Radio Time article on it?

    As I said, I am aware of what the extras on the Season 13 set
    are. I posted a link to the original article announcing the
    release remember? (Which clearly you didn't actually read or
    you would have known it wasn't Jodie's Series 13!)

    The original episodes from 1975 are the main feature of the
    "Season 13" set, obviously, as they are what constitute Season
    13... and RTD had nothing to do with them. People wouldn't buy
    or not buy a Blu-ray set because of an extra thrown in on a
    bonus disc. Well, unless they were the sort of person that had a
    tiny mind!

    Fortunately for you, if you can't play Blu-ray discs you won't
    have to make that decision.

    Plus, Season 13 is one of the best seasons of Doctor Who out
    there... really. If there's any Doctor Who classic era box
    set worth the fifty quid - this is it!

    Not any longer it isn't after it appears that Pyramids of Mars
    has been re-cut to include Ncuti Gatwa and Millie Gibson. It
    looks like I was right after all.

    <face palm> The "Tales of the Tardis: Pyramids of Mars" edit was
    broadcast on BBC Four and is on the BBC iPlayer, so of course it
    was going to be thrown in as an 'extra'. It's only an hour or so
    long and it is not the actual four-episode broadcast story. It
    is not a part of Season 13... it is just a bonus feature.

    Nobody is forcing an extra thrown in as a bonus down anyone's
    throats...

    It is a good job I already have the story on VHS.

    You can't play Blu-ray discs anyway, so your moans are
    irrelevant.

    I do have the old BBC "Pyramids of Mars" DVD if you want it
    though? I won't need it anymore obviously. So I'll send it to
    you free of charge... that can be your back-up! Just say the
    word.

    RTD messes up again.

    Physical copies of TV shows you like are always the way to go...

    Of course, you need to keep them... and something to play them

    No, it's the "Tales of the Tardis" episode from June 2024. Are
    you not familiar with that series? They are all still on the
    BBC iPlayer... check out the first five minutes of any of them
    and you will understand the framing structure used for those
    edited versions of Doctor Who stories.

    The Doctor talks to his companion... in the TARDIS ... about one
    of his adventures... and there is an edited version of the
    relevant story. Nobody is "inserted" into the actual episode,
    the new material bookends the stories. It is on the iPlayer if
    you don't believe me!

    As you didn't read the announcement article, and are not
    familiar with the Blu-ray "Collection" range I will explain it
    to you.

    The Season 13 set will contain the broadcast four-episode
    "Pyramids of Mars" as the main feature on that episode's Disc...
    maybe cleaned up and visually enhanced by the Restoration Team
    if it needed it. As is always the case.

    As a bonus, the omnibus version will also be included. So that's
    a movie style version with no episode breaks, as per the old BBC
    video releases. (Not every Collection release has these as not
    every Doctor Who story was released in that movie-style format
    on VHS.)

    Also, the "Tales of the Tardis" edit of "Pyramids of Mars" will
    be included an extra. This version was only around an hour long
    and had enhanced special effects. (It is on the iPlayer so it's
    not exclusive to this set.)

    So basically there will be three different versions of "Pyramids
    of Mars" in the Season 13 Collection package. This is the norm
    where there are any different versions of stories out there. As
    we all know how nerdy and completionists us fans can be.

    You already have the VHS version, the four-episode broadcast
    version is on the iPlayer, as is the "Tales of the Tardis"
    episode, so you are missing out on nothing by not buying the
    Blu-rays. But as a collector I think it's nice to have all the
    stuff in one place. One season = one box. Simples.

    My next idea is to do The War Games, then swing right into Three's
    entire era. I would just start with Three, but The War Games is too >incredible to skip.

    I am not on Discord, and if I am watching Doctor Who generally
    I am not in front of my laptop or on my phone... the tea is
    made, the feet are up and the biscuits are being dunked!

    Games is too incredible to skip.

    I do my own Doctor Who watch parties, that usually start with a
    3rd Doctor story... but could go anywhere after that depending
    on the mood. Three is always a good place to start though. I've
    done two of his stories (from Season 9) this weekend...
