Each issue came with a DVD release covering two episodes.
Reversible DVD sleeves enabled the collector to display one of two designs featuring either the Doctor and his enemies or his companions.
“Are you my mummy?"
Following a canister falling through time leads the Doctor and Rose to war-torn London in 1941. Soon separated, the Doctor finds himself on the trail of a lost little boy who is causing a strange plague, while Rose is saved from an air-raid by the dashing Captain Jack Harkness, a time traveller from the 51st century!
“You'll find your feet at the end of your legs. You may care to move them.”
Time is running out for the Doctor as he tries to solve the mystery of the gas mask-wearing little boy. As more and more people become infected by the alien plague, the Doctor locates the canister that's fallen through time - but wil he find the answer to the boy's heart-wrenching plea: "Are you my mummy?"

Notable Information
