Doctor Who: Series 5 Boxset Revealed


This year's season of Doctor Who, helmed by Matt Smith, Karen Gillian and Steven Moffat, came to an end over a month ago now, but that doesn't mean the team are sitting back and relaxing: a Christmas Special confirmed to 'provide a merry twist on Dickens' A Christmas Carol' is being filmed this August, with Michael Gambon (Dumbledore in HP 3-6) and popular opera singer Catherine Jenkins signed on as guest stars in the festive 60 (or more) minute episode set to air on the 25th of December 2010. Meanwhile, four volumes containing each of Series 5's 13 episodes are being released up till early September, each featuring simply the stories and Monster Files detailing the Doctor's new adversaries. All of these have now been confirmed to star on the Series 5 box-set, which has a lenticular cover (above, left), and a limited edition (which won't be cost anymore but you'll have to pre-order) metal casing featuring a crack in space and time. All 13 Doctor Who Confidential episodes will also be included in the 6-disc set, along with exciting new scenes starring Matt and Karen called "Meanwhile, in the TARDIS" which will bridge the gaps between several adventures. Get ready to start saving, as the box-sets tend to release for around £50, but given the superb standard set this year, that'll be well worth it!
