Doctor Who: The Movie has been newly restored for 4K and Blu-ray

In 1996, Paul McGann debuted as the Eighth Doctor in Doctor Who, a feature length co-production between the BBC and the American Fox network, more commonly known as The TV Movie.

This 90-minute feature was shot on film, and now, for the first time, all 219 reels of original film (totalling almost 200,000 feet!) have been pulled from deep storage in the US and meticulously scanned over 21 days, then restored by Paul Vanezis to provide a definitive 4K experience.

- The ‘uncensored’ UK version
- The USA broadcast version
- Soundtrack in Dolby Atmos, 5.1 and stereo
