DVD release (with cover blurb)[[edit] | [edit source]]
- 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.
- "But you're changing history. Not just Earth, the entire universe."
- A whole year has passed since the Master and his cutting Toclafane took control of the world. Physically too old to fight, the Doctor has to look on while Martha's family are enslaved and Captain Jack is imprisoned. Only Martha is free, wandering the Earth, looking for the pieces of a weapon that could kill the Master... Can they somehow overcome his tyranny and restore the Earth to peace?
- "The Titanic is falling, the sky will burn. Let the Christmas inferno commence!"
- Things tend to go badly when the Doctor dons formal wear, and when he wears it on a spaceship called Titanic it's little wonder that disaster is just around the corner! When meteoroids strike the ship, can he get through the wrecked interior and find the man responsible? Hopefully, with help from a waitress called Astrid, he can...
