Recovered and restored – a classic Patrick Troughton adventure!
The TARDIS lands on an Australian beach in the 21st Century, but this is no seaside holiday. Within minutes, the Doctor (Patrick Troughton), Jamie (Frazer Hines) and Victoria (Deborah Watling) are under attack.
They soon discover that the Doctor bears a startling resemblance to leader Salamander, a would-be dictator intent on world domination. Before long, the Doctor and his companions are plunged into a dangerous game of espionage, intrigue and deceit as they face off against the enemy of the world.
The Enemy of the World is the first of two classic
Doctor Who stories recovered by
BBC Worldwide in 2013. The story had not been viewed in the UK since it was first broadcast over 45 years ago. The second missing story,
The Web of Fear, will be released on DVD in early 2014.
The DVD comes with a fully restored and remastered version of the story, subtitles and a Coming Soon trailer for
The Web of Fear.
The Enemy of the World is available on Nov 22 from the BBC Shop.com
, and on Nov 25 from other retailers -
pre-order HERE.
