Doctor Who: Inferno: Special Edition DVD Review

Rating: PG
Released by BBC And Roadshow Home Entertainment

In the second of the Jon Pertwee releases for this month, it's a special edition take on an absolute classic.

As a top secret project burrows to the crust of the earth to harness a new power, the Doctor finds himself transported to a parallel universe where the project is further on and closer to achieving its aims. But, in this alterna-verse, everything's at risk, and before long, the Doctor's fighting for his life and the future of the real Earth.

A classic by every stretch of the imagination, Doctor Who: Inferno: Special Edition is a great release. It pulls together the original special features from the initial release, before piling on the goodness including a piece which sees Toby Hadoke bring together the original stunt cast of Havoc for one major reunion. This piece alone has humour, heart and pathos as well as a reminder of how much of a family the old Who was.

Doctor Who: Inferno: Special Edition is an essential purchase; a Who that continues to give and a release that showcases the best of special features and script writing at its 70s best.

Extras: Commentary, making of, Hadoke vs Havoc, Doctor Forever, a look at the UNIT family - a great set.
