He wasn't surprised at their inclusion.Cameron McEwanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15901099890643285873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272431515083873489.post-76337281157256876722013-11-11T12:53:55.089+00:002013-11-11T12:53:55.089+00:00Just re-reading this and realised something.

And that's because the original is officially, and currently, a missing episode. No more, no less.Jack Bowmanhttp://www.jackbowman.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272431515083873489.post-7629577651649881382013-06-25T11:49:12.053+01:002013-06-25T11:49:12.053+01:00Why have you described TP4 as being 'officiall...Why have you described TP4 as being 'officially' missing?

The animated episode is a good carrot for those willing to invest in the new set, but I am puzzled as to why they didn't include any of the extra features, since it's not as if (with the exception of Tenth Planet) that they had to make any new ones. I assume the standalone release of Tenth Planet will have extras, not the least of which is the surviving footage of the regeneration, hopefully properly VidFired for the occasion.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272431515083873489.post-81631736627787078422013-06-24T17:37:02.139+01:002013-06-24T17:37:02.139+01:00Episode 4 of the Tenth Planet is still ''o...Episode 4 of the Tenth Planet is still ''officially'' missing.

Recently Amazon had the set for £36, and I briefly considered pre-ordering it, only for the price to £48 mere days later.<br /><br />Considering I'm only missing Tenth Planet, Spiders and Time & The Rani, £48 seemed far too steep a price when all I've heard on the collector's booklet is it's good for new fans. As a fan who's watched since 2006 and done a LOT of watching classic tales/catching up, I no longer fit that category. I'll just get Planet for £6, Rani for £8 and wait on Tenth- I may well get Dalek War, Beneath the Surface and Lost In Time to further my classic collection with just as much content too. :)WhoGuy123https://www.blogger.com/profile/11515752902045476362noreply@blogger.com
