A bit of a surprise, that one......so we just need the Kinda/Snakedance double pack to complete that season then!

[Pip Madeley]

One story I could've done without. Let's hope it's vanilla.

[SiHart]

Perhaps they picked up on Peter's comments about never having seen it, and decided sooner rather than later was a good idea. Will be interesting to find out what he thinks of it.

[Si Hunt]

Oh for Christs sake.

Si.

[Dave Tudor]

Hmm, even I have to admit that that's an odd choice so soon. It's got some original concepts and some unusual imagery, but... it is a bit dull.

Maybe Burt Kwouk can liven up the commentary, though.

[Antony Cox]

Doesn't bother me - as with so many DW stories I don't have a copy and haven't seen it for about 15 years so it'll be like watching it for the first time!

I am aware of it's reputation but I always have an open mind with these types of stories.

[Larry]

Warriors of the Deap, Invasion of Time, Invisible Enemy and now Four to Doomsday, this is turning out to be a crappy year..

[stuartdg]

Another good year for releases then,Underworld next please

[Lissa]

Why the negativity? It means another Davison/Fielding commentary, the story isn't as bad as people say and it is another of those special DVDs which you don't have to buy if you don't want to.

oh it is most definitely as bad as they say I watched it a week or so ago and found it thoroughly boring as for Adric watching this irritating brat made you want to put your foot through the telly

[SiHart]

But, on the plus side, it has wonderful sets, and has the amazing scene where Tegan displays her hitherto unsuspected skills as a fashion designer, and the one where Tegan and Adric argue and somehow Adric knocks himself out! I love that one! No it's not great, but I'm not getting drawn into the whinging about every DVD release that comes out. Again.

[Si Hunt]

I have caused a ruckus about this on the RT forum, as is my way!

Si.

[Wayne]

meh

[Simon R]

I've only seen it twice or thrice and can remember very little apart from wanting to kill myself whilst it was on. Davison's performance is certainly different to the rest of his era and the sets are nice but it's so so slow and awful. Didn't someone once say it was like an episode of Blue Peter pretending to be Doctor Who?

[Pip Madeley]

It's going to be a £2.99 affair for me.

[Rob McCow]

Stratford Johns gives a great performance as Monarch. And if there's any budget to improve the effects, 42Dmsday deserves it!

[Captain Tancredi]

It's the second story I saw on its original broadcast, so (as with all that season in fact) I don't mind it at all.

[Antony Cox]

Why the negativity?

Because we're DOCTOR WHO FANS and we like to be NEGATIVE about EVERYTHING! I can't BELIEVE you asked such a QUESTION! WHAT were you THINKING????

[Paul Monk]

I quite like it

I must be quite an unusual Dr Who fan because I really don't give a toss about what stories they release on dvd. If its a story I like then I might buy if not then I won't. Whenever any are reduced in sales and the like I might pick up a couple but I don't ever feel disappointed or angry about any of the releases. That only happens if you are obsessive about buying everything as it comes out as far as I can see. If you're unhappy splashing out £15 for Four To Doomsday, then don't. Buy it later or get something else.
Or am I missing something?

[SiHart]

Well said Paul. I agree entirely!

well I suppose at the end of the day they all have to be released sooner or later..

[Paul Monk]

Exactly and at the moment there's still some classics to look forward to.
With the videos it became quite miserable because all the crap was released at the end.

Hey, leave 'Invasion of the Dinosaurs' alone!

[Paul Monk]

Well apart from that one.
