Doctor Who: Series 10 Part 1 -UK Region
DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:
one of my favorites. Pearl Mackie as Bill is one of the best ‘new” Doctor Who companions. I miss the fact that she seems to be a ‘one season’ companion and won’t be a part of the show anymore. Bill & the 12th Doctor make such a good Tardis team! Nardole is also fun, and his actor manages to make the character funny without making him a simple comic relief character (c’mon, how can you not laugh at Nardole’s “death by Scotland” line?)
Now, this box set includes all the episodes from Series 10, plus the “Return of Doctor Mysterio” Christmas special from 2016. This set does NOT include the 2017 Christmas special called “Twice Upon A Time”. That will have a separate release sometime in February, and it’s also a possibility that it will be included in the future complete eleventh series box set. Unlike some previous Doctor Who releases, this comes in a slim style blu ray box set. It’s not as elaborate as the digibook editions of the past season releases, and takes up a little less space on your shelf. If you buy it early enough, you will get a slipcover with it (same artwork as on the set’s cover, no alternate art).
My favorite extra on the whole set (other than the binaural audio for the ‘haunted house’ style episode “Knock Knock”) has to be all the behind the scenes stuff relating to the final two episodes. It’s a good two part story with a couple returning villains (the Cybermen have not been this creepy/scary for a long time), some surprises, and overall I think it’s a good way to end the tenth series. The 12th Doctor’s last series feels like a good jumping on point for new Doctor Who fans (the first episode is called “Pilot” and sets up everything pretty well), and I’d definitely recommend it. 🙂
