A Brief History of Doctor Who on VHS

[@richardmattocks]

Amazing how few releases happened before the show actually ended and shows the golden age of the VHS releases were all during the wilderness years. Great research. 👍😎

Thank you, glad you enjoyed the video 👍

Great video

The VHS range continued to its natural conclusion independently of the DVD releases

I had most of the Doctor Who VHS range, but got rid of most them when they started coming out on DVD. I bought, and still have the very first DVD release "The Five Doctors special edition" which I bought from HMV back in 1999.

Only “Brain of Morbius” was initially edited down to 60 minutes. Up until “The Daleks” the prior releases were edited into omnibus editions (devoid of their opening/closing sequences but otherwise relatively intact) “Seeds of Death” and “Talons” although six-parters only had minor trims too, they still ran for about 2 1/2 hrs.

Really enjoyed the video. It’s nice to see more dedicated to the VHS range :)

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it :)

What is the name of the music that begins at 3:02 I remember the Doctor Who youtuber Batmanmarch using it for his action figure reviews. Cheers.

I still have my VHS range but not quite complete, but have a complete dvd range so far and am about to switch to blu-ray. The VHS range was awesome, it had some extras not on the dvds, especially silver nemesis. I'd like to see a compilation of Dr Who VHS extras not available on dvd and blu-ray, restoration stories, behind the scenes, making of, etc. They were good.

This looks good!

3:03 I've Might Go And Buy The Original 1991 BBC Video UK VHS Releases Of Doctor Who Volume 1 The Hartnell Years And Doctor Who Volume 2 The Troughton Years On Video From eBay This Year. Wish Me Luck. Thanks Mate. PS I'm A Huge Doctor Who Fan As Well Too. X

[@IsaacSigmar]

Good luck mate, glad you enjoyed the video! :)

[@thomaswhalley7088]

well if you ask me There was no mention of Doctor Who The Davison Years & Doctor Who The McCoy Years Released on VHS

[@IsaacSigmar]

What do you mean?

[@htershane]

Difficult really considering they were never produced. JNT had yet to arrange Davison and McCoy’s filming slots (among other things) when BBC Enterprises nixed the project.

[@TediousMilkshake]

The only VHS release I have is the very last one 😭
