The following is a list of Blu-ray disc releases by the BBC, broken down by year of release. It includes the catalogue number for each release, as used on the Region 2 version of each Blu-ray disc (official abbreviation: BD).

Doctor Who has been released on this medium from 2009 until the present. Planet of the Dead (2009) was the first Doctor Who episode to be broadcast to early 21st century HDTV (High Definition Television) standards and thus it became the first Doctor Who BD release. Only one previous episode has been released in this format - The Next Doctor (2008) as part of The Complete Specials Boxset. Torchwood has been released on this medium since its inception.
