The Beginning was the title of the BBC DVD release of January, 2006 (US: March, 2006). It was a three DVD set that compiled the first three stories from the series Doctor Who. The North American release differed slightly from the UK version in that the UK version packaged each story separately, while the Region 1 version compiled The Daleks and The Edge of Destruction (plus extras) into one two-disc box. Unlike other sets such as Lost in Time and New Beginnings, the individual stories have yet to be released by themselves in North America.
