Recall

In late 2014, BBC Worldwide announced a voluntary recall of disc 2 of the Blu-ray edition (the disc containing The Day of the Doctor) citing encoding errors in the disc's production. Replacement discs were sent to fans on receipt of the original disc.

Reissue

In 2021, the set was reissued in a collector's Steelbook set as "Doctor Who: 50th Anniversary Collection". The content of these discs is identical, and the set came with the corrected disc 2.
