'''PolyGram''' were one of the distributors of ''[[Doctor Who]]'' home videos to viewers in [[Australia]] and [[New Zealand]], active mostly in the late [[1980s]] and early [[1990s]].

However they did not obtain the distribution rights for both countries simultaneously. PolyGramme took over from Kerridge Odeon, the original purveyors of ''Doctor Who'' tapes in New Zealand, in 1990. PolyGramme retained the cover artwork from the Odeon releases, which meant that some stories had different [[VHS]] covers in New Zealand than they did in Australia. A good example of this is ''[[Terror of the Zygons (TV story)|Terror of the Zygons]]''. | ||
They were supplanted in both territories by [[Roadshow]], who completed the [[VHS]] run of ''Doctor Who'' tapes. | They were supplanted in both territories by [[Roadshow]], who completed the [[VHS]] run of ''Doctor Who'' tapes. |
