It was made as an attempt to relaunch and continue the ''[[Doctor Who]]'' television franchise in the [[United Kingdom|UK]] and abroad. With no on-screen title other than ''Doctor Who'', home video releases of the film from BBC Video are marketed under the title '''''Doctor Who: The Movie'''''. The movie featured [[Sylvester McCoy]]'s final chronological appearance as the [[Seventh Doctor]] and [[Seventh Doctor's regeneration|his regeneration]] into the Eighth Doctor.
