Doctor Who: The Complete Sixth Season DVD/Blu-Ray Announced

As per their annual release schedule, DVD and Blu-Ray distributor 2Entertain has announced the upcoming release of Doctor Who: The Complete Sixth Season. The boxset will contain the 2010 Christmas Special, A Christmas Carol, along with the thirteen episodes of this series which will have finished airing as of October 1st: The Impossible Astronaut; Day of the Moon; The Curse of the Black Spot; The Doctor's Wife; The Rebel Flesh; The Almost People; A Good Man Goes To War; Let's Kill Hitler; Night Terrors; The Girl Who Waited; The God Complex; Closing Time and The Wedding of River Song. There have already been two disc packages of these episodes, Series 6: Part 1 and Part 2, but this new set will include both the special features found in those releases and bonus extras exclusive to it. The bonus content on The Complete Sixth Season is as follows:
  • Doctor Who at the BBC Proms 2010- A video recording of the 2010 Who prom, which saw Matt Smith's Doctor pay a visit and a little boy saving the Royal Albert Hall! (Originally available on the Christmas Carol DVD, TBC by 2Entertain)
  • Doctor Who Confidential featurettes for all fourteen episodes
  • Additional Scenes- Five scenes specially shot for the package that help bridge the gap between episodes, and range from 2 minutes to 15 minutes in length. These are titled Good Night; Bad Night; First Night; Last Night and Up All Night, the latter starring James Corden and the other four starring Matt Smith and Karen Gillian.
  • Prequels: We've seen most of these, but you can now watch the prequels to selected episodes of the season and watch their corresponding stories directly afterwards. The prequel stories are for The Impossible Astronaut, The Curse of the Black Spot, A Good Man Goes To War, Let's Kill Hitler and The Wedding of River Song.
  • Monster Files: Special Confidential-style mini documentaries focusing on the baddies of Series 6. There are files on the Silence, the Flesh, the Antibodies and the Cybermats here.
  • Audio commentaries for selected episodes.
  • Trailers & Ads- Selected previews of the new season released to the media in 2011.
Doctor Who: The Complete Sixth Season is out on DVD and Blu-Ray this November.
