An alien and a loner, his detached logic gives him a vital edge when the world's in danger. But when it comes to human relationships, he can be found wanting. That's why he needs Rose. From the moment they meet, the Doctor and Rose understand and complement each other. As they travel together through time, encountering new adversaries, the Doctor shows her things beyond imagination.]]> Review: You will not be disappointed! This is the series that started it all - To anyone unsure as to whether to upgrade to the Blu-ray - do it. You will not be disappointed! This is the series that started it all, revitalised and rebooted Doctor Who for a new generation and upon watching it back, I have more than just fuzzy, fond nostalgia; this is a genuinely clever, ambitious and incredibly well produced series that sets the bar for everything that precedes it. Christopher Eccleston electrifies the screen as the ninth Doctor. Haunting, pained and filled with the inner self hatred and regret from the time war, Ecclestons Doctor is edgy, dark and unpredictable without ever being melodramatic. Billie Piper astounds as Rose Tyler - an average 19 year old from a London council estate. The writing for Roses character is very well defined. Rose could be anyone we all know. But it is Pipers warm and grounded portrayal of an innocent, wide eyed girl from inner city London taken across time and space that makes Rose, personally, my favourite of all the new companions so far. Piper gets a chance to really shine in this series too, showing off her diverse range of acting skills from terror to wonder, to confusion, anger, and raw, heart wrenching emotion. Those performances, alongside the brilliant chemistry of the two leads and you have yourself a very intelligent debut series. I won't reel the episodes off in stars or review them or anything like that; it's been done before. But what I will say is this; series 1 of Doctor Who has a clever story arc, new monsters, old scares (yes, the Daleks are back!) and a genuinely inventive finale that weaves everything from the previous 12 episodes together. The writing is sharp and the characters relatable; no easy feat considering the madness of the stories. From a technical standpoint, Doctor Who series 1 has never looked better. As has been previously pointed out, this is not absolute, true HD; it can't be - the source material simply doesn't allow for a true HD transfer. What we get, however, is the quality upgraded from the DVD to as close to 1080p as can be. There is a very noticeable difference, too. Colours are more realistically balanced, the image quality is definitely sharper, and there's clarity like never before - it's definitely worth the upgrade in my opinion. Also, the blu rays spread over 3 disks which is nice! Often overlooked, series 1 of Doctor Who is a masterpiece in modern television, and this blu - ray, FINALLY available separately, is a great starting point. But it - the upgrade is absolutely worth it. Review: Utterly brilliant. - With 42 years of history, and a 26-year long TV show to match up to, the BBC have braved the wrath of millions in bringing back this historic show. It could have been done with top of the range effects, distracting from the storylines, or it could have been done with wobbly sets and cheap costumes, which seems to be about all anyone can remember of the classic series. Instead it nicely covers the balance, Making a fine distinction between being able to use top quality effects, and actually using them. The storylines, in general, have been faultless. A trip to see the end of the World, fighting the remains of an alien civilization with Charles Dickens, creating a tear in time which can only be solved by a sacrifice, and a child moving around London during a World War 2 air raid, looking for his mummy, and not stopping for anyone. I suppose that now is the time I should mention the Daleks. These have been brought back bigger, better, and shinier than ever. The episode "Dalek" is pure class. Incredible drama is provided by Chris Eccleston, and the Dalek scenes are well handled, without looking tacky or predictable. My only complaint (and it is stupid, but it's the only way I can really fault this episode) is the overuse of "Exterminate". In the very first Dalek story, that word was never even used! Once a Dalek said "They shall be exterminated", but that was it. Now, it seems to be its entire vocabulary! What possible reason did it have for using "Exterminate" as its last word? By far the best episode though was The Empty Child. Physical injuries acting as a plague, moving from person to person, infecting everyone the Child touches, turning them all into mindless gas-mask wearing zombies, looking for mummy. Creepy on every level, highly dramatic, and superbly directed. The risk you often run with a longer story is making the second half live up to the first. "The Doctor Dances" remains highly dramatic. The horror of the first episode is gone, but the thrill is still there. Chris Eccleston has his finest hour, and it's hard to stop smiling when he is so cheerful at the end. He has reason to be happy, and when he so gleefully cries out "just this once, everybody lives!" it's a magical moment, showing just how fine an actor Eccleston really is. As with any TV show, there are both ups and downs, but such superb episodes as "The Unquiet Dead", "Father's Day", and of course "Dalek", "The Empty Child" and "The Doctor Dances" make this boxset worth buying even if you didn't want the others. In all honesty, I can't stand the last three episodes, but the others are so wonderfully done that it doesn't matter. Buy this. You won't regret it. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Colour | Unknown | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 3,562 Reviews | | Format | AC-3, Dolby, NTSC | | Genre | Science Fiction & Fantasy | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00883929374472 | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | BBC | | Number of discs | 3 | | Publication date | 21 Jun. 2016 | | Runtime | 9 hours and 45 minutes | | UPC | 883929374472 | ## Product Details - **Genre:** Science Fiction & Fantasy - **Format:** AC-3, Dolby, NTSC - **Language:** English - **Number of discs:** 3 - **Runtime:** 9 hours and 45 minutes ## Images ![Doctor Who: The Complete First Series [Blu-ray] - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81AAQ6u8mqL.jpg) ![Doctor Who: The Complete First Series [Blu-ray] - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51TRTY5zDCL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ You will not be disappointed!
