Doctor Who Blu Ray Announcement - Season 14 Coming Spring 2020



It's official, today Doctor Who fans and Blu Ray collectors alike now know the next blu ray boxset to be released as part of "The Collection" Blu Ray box set range is Season 14. Tom Baker's third season and Philip Hinchcliffe's final season as producer.

It's also the season to feature the last story of Sarah Jane Smith, there's a wonderful tribute on this boxset to pay homage to Elisabeth Sladen's time on Doctor Who and will always be 'Our Sarah Jane'.

Not only that some of the very best Doctor Who stories are on this boxset: The Deadly Assassin, The Robots of Death, and The Talons of Weng Chiang, three classics that have gone down in Who History as being fan favourites.

With updated special effects and new bonus features, restored picture and sound quality, this boxset has it all and is a welcome edition to the collection.

The packaging is designed by Lee Binding who has done the artwork for the other six box sets, Lee you've done it again, the design and artwork for the cover is stunning and I really like the fact you have used a photograph of Tom Baker (The Fourth Doctor) in his Weng Chiang outfit as it is a unique and definitive look and exclusive to Season 14.

I'm really excited to be seeing this released in the spring. This boxset is available to pre order on Amazon, Zavvi, and Zoom. It says the release date is April 20th, however, given what has happened with other boxsets being delayed, I wouldn't be surprised if we got this May. Still, it's wonderful we're getting this none the less, I know this has been a season on many people's lists to be given a blu ray release.

It would seem from the pattern of the way these boxsets have come out in the past, we get a new boxset for every season of the year. Take last year for instance, Spring 2019 - Season 18, Summer 2019 - Season 10, Autumn 2019 - Season 23, Winter 2019/20 - Season 26.

Season 14 is looking to be the blu ray boxset release for Spring 2020 and I can't wait.
