BBC DVD, a division of BBC Worldwide, began releasing Doctor Who on DVD in 1999. The chosen title to start the range was The Five Doctors and was chosen due to already existing in a Special Edition from the 1995 video release. It was one of six DVDs released as a test of the DVD market by BBC Worldwide (the other titles were The Black Adder, Noddy in Toyland, The Planets, Persuasion, and The Best of Monty Python’s Flying Circus - Volume 1).
It was something of a false start, with the range eventually kicking off properly (with a different cover art template) in 2000 with The Robots of Death.
After The Five Doctors the plan was to release one from each Doctor. This was not quite achieved as The Ark in Space and Carnival of Monsters were slipped in to stop two black and white stories being released back to back. And in 2003, one release from each Doctor was wanted.
Pyramids of Mars was originally scheduled for release much earlier than 2004, but clearance issues with equity fees held the release up. It came out in 2004 when it was voted by DWM readers in 2003 as their the most wanted DVD release.
With The Sontaran Experiment in 2006, a decision was made to increase the number of releases, with titles being either a 'Super Value Edition' (like The Sontaran Experiment), which meant a reduced extras package, or 'Special Editions' like the two disc releases of the past.
