This is a list of Doctor Who serials and episodes that have been released on DVD and Blu-ray.

DVD[]

Release[]

Most Doctor Who DVDs have been released first in the United Kingdom with Region 2, and released later in Australia and New Zealand (Region 4) and in North America (Region 1). Aside from differences in the external packaging, special features and commentaries are mostly identical in all versions. The Region 1 release of The Five Doctors contains a commentary track featuring Peter Davison and Terrance Dicks not available on the earlier Region 2 release. All Region 1 releases prior to September 2005 also included a "Who's Who" feature that identified key cast members and gave brief biographies and filmographies. The Region 1 releases of Robots of Death, The Ark in Space, The Talons of Weng-Chiang, and Pyramids of Mars also include a featurette with the syndicated Time-Life introductions and closings narrated by Howard da Silva.

There are also minor variations having to do with technical glitches that occurred in the Region 2 discs but were corrected in time for the Region 1 release (The Caves of Androzani, Remembrance of the Daleks, Complete Series Two box set). The Region 2 discs released up to 2009 have also been dual coded with Region 4, so the two have been identical; this practice ceased for new releases in 2010. The only exceptions are Vengeance on Varos, which fixed an error on the Region 2 version in episode 2, and Remembrance of the Daleks, which used the NTSC master due to errors on the UK version and issues about music clearance.

The Region 1 classic series DVDs are labelled with story numbers, which are listed below. The numbering system follows that used in the 1995 reference work The Discontinuity Guide. It differs slightly from that used by Doctor Who Magazine (the source for the Wikipedia list of Doctor Who serials), firstly by including the uncompleted serial Shada, and secondly by counting the four segments of The Trial of a Time Lord as four separate stories. Because of this, both schemes are identical until the 108th story, The Horns of Nimon, after which they diverge. The Region 1 DVDs of the 2005 revival of Doctor Who do not have story numbers, so none are listed here.

Features[]

With few exceptions (noted below), each of the 'classic series' stories have been carefully restored by the Doctor Who Restoration Team from the best available materials, and are presented as originally broadcast—in episodic format, where applicable. Other features present on every (or nearly every) DVD include cast and crew commentary, subtitles, production notes, and a photo gallery.

"Special edition" releases (which make up the bulk of the line; see above) also typically include one or more documentaries relating to the serial in question, any relevant archive material, and—where applicable—the occasional highlight such as a Dolby 5.1 mix or enhanced movie edit. The precise features vary, depending on the available resources and the nature of the story.

Most, but not all, Doctor Who mini-episodes, prequels and webcasts are bundled as part of the DVD and Blu-ray releases.^[1] For example, five prelude videos were released online as part of series 6, and these are extras on the series 6 box set. Some Doctor Who webcasts were released on their own special DVDs.

Blu-ray[]

Release[]

"Planet of the Dead" was the first Doctor Who episode to be filmed and broadcast in high definition. It was released on Blu-ray on the same day as its corresponding DVD in Region 2. All subsequent episodes (excluding the animated "Dreamland") have also been filmed and broadcast in high-definition and released on Blu-ray, usually simultaneously with the corresponding DVDs. An upscaled version of "The Next Doctor" (which was shot in standard definition) was also released on Blu-ray as part of a box set containing all of the 2008–2010 specials. It was also released individually in Australia and New Zealand. In 2011, the 1975 Doctor Who serial Pyramids of Mars was included on both the DVD and Blu-ray box sets for The Sarah Jane Adventures Season 4.

Spearhead from Space, the only serial of the classic series shot completely on film, was released on Blu-ray on 15 July 2013 with exclusive bonus features.^[2] The 1996 telemovie received a Blu-ray release on 19 September 2016. Despite being shot entirely on film, the Blu-ray release is simply an HD upscale of the 480p broadcast copy.^[3] A Limited edition Blu-ray box-set containing Series 1-7 of Doctor Who was released 5 November 2013. Series 1-4 was shot on Standard Definition video but upscaled and remastered to full 1080p for this release.^[4]

The classic-era began to receive complete season Blu-ray releases from 2018 onward, under the banner "The Collection". In 2021, the BBC rebranded the range as "The Collection Limited Edition Packaging", with the original "The Collection" name to be used for standard edition versions of the releases.^[5] In 2018, Season 12 was released in July,^[6] and Season 19 in December.^[7] In 2019, Season 18 was released in March,^[8] Season 10 in July,^[9] and Season 23 in October.^[10] In 2020, Season 26 was released in January,^[11] and Season 14 in May.^[12] In 2021, Season 8 was released in March,^[13] and Season 24 in June.^[14]

4K Ultra HD[]

"Twice Upon a Time" (2017), Peter Capaldi's final episode, was released on 4K in 2018.^[15]

Specifications[]

Episodes released on Blu-ray starting with "Planet of the Dead" were shot in full 1080p High Definition and have been released with DTS-HD High Resolution 5.1 soundtracks. All Ninth and Tenth Doctor episodes appearing on Blu-ray produced prior to "Planet of the Dead" have been upscaled to 1080p for those releases. The first classic series serial released on Blu-ray in HD, Spearhead From Space, was shot entirely on 16mm film and true 1080p masters for those episodes were produced from the original film elements; the Blu-ray release was in 1080i. Other classic series releases have been upscaled, with HD film scans inserted where possible,^[16] and some releases use specially made animated elements.

The Five Doctors[]

The original release of The Five Doctors was the very first Doctor Who DVD release, and as such, is rather lacking compared to later releases in the range. This release contains a straight transfer of the 1995 Special Edition, which recut the story, added several scenes, and replaced the original effects with CGI. The Region 2 version had no commentary track, but one with Peter Davison and writer Terrance Dicks was added for the Region 1 release nearly two years later. The Doctor Who Restoration Team has repeatedly stated that neither they nor 2 Entertain considers this to be part of the "official" release range. The packaging for the DVD and the design of the menus is different from all other releases in the range, although the BBC have subsequently made a new sleeve available for download from the official Doctor Who website which is intended to better match the rest of the range. A new version of the story was released in Region 2 on 3 March 2008, containing remastered versions of both the Special Edition and the story as originally transmitted. It also features both the R1 commentary track, a newly recorded commentary, and a number of special features. To distinguish it from the previous release, the newer version is subtitled 25th Anniversary Edition.

Alternative feature-length versions[]

The Curse of Fenric,^[758] Battlefield,^[759] Enlightenment^[760] and Planet of Fire.^[761] Some have re-edited feature-length versions on a bonus disc, while others have a reduced edit with additional footage and new special effects, as well as a remixed 5.1 surround soundtrack. The alternative versions of Enlightenment and Planet of Fire are presented in 16:9 widescreen rather than the original 4:3 aspect ratio. The Curse of Fenric and Battlefield are extended edits with new scenes added, while Enlightenment and Planet of Fire are cut down in length to make them more like modern Doctor Who stories. Day of The Daleks featured the original four 25-minute episodes, re-edited, with new CGI, new Dalek voices by Nicholas Briggs and new specially shot scenes filmed at the original locations.

They started by publishing the revived series, beginning with "Rose".^[763] Starting from issue 29 the DVDs focused on the classic series starting with Remembrance of the Daleks. The David Tennant specials of 2008–2010 were released midway through the series, with issues 55 and 56 and Matt Smith's first series was released with issues 74 to 80. From issue 81 up until the last issue, 152, the DVDs returned to classic series starting with Planet of the Daleks.

These two theatrical movies do not take place within the established canon of Doctor Who. The two films have been released as a boxed set (often with the Dalekmania documentary on a separate disc), first in region 4 (9 May 2001), then region 1 (22 November 2001) and later region 2 (29 July 2002).
