Any chance we might see the new episodes on DVD in Spring 2024 for the 3 part special?

They had released Power Of The Doctor on DVD.

Don't see why not. Unless the deal with Disney means they can't.

You asked this the other week, and like i said then, it'll definitely get a release in the UK at least, even if it's some kind of exclusive fancy steelbook and nothing else. Internationally, I'm less sure, depends on the interplay between streaming rights and home media release rights, but if the last Whittaker specials can get it, there's probably hope for anything with Tennant's face on it.

Well not a lot of Disney plus shows get home released. We have yet to see anything Marvel that's D+ exclusive. That's why Doctor Who has me wondering. That's what the question was based on.

The thing is, while the exact level of involvement Disney+ isn't fully known, it seems to just be doing international streaming going forwards, basically doing what Netflix used to do. It's not exactly the same as a show produced by a Disney subsidiary like Marvel or Lucasfilms. That doesn't guarantee it a home media release - that's a dying breed as more and more people rely purely on streaming and thus there's less money for lower end releases - but Doctor Who seems to have a reliable enough market that it'll come out somehow, at least on its home turf.

Well that usually means an R1 release. If true to form I'll continue to watch Doctor Who Saturday night on DVD.

My current schedule

Doctor Who
Saturday 8:00 PM

Resuming with

Doctor Who XXVII
9th Doctor
07 The Long Game

this week.

My plan is to watch all of the 2005 run in order (including Infinity Quest and Dreamland) and also holiday specials. The hold was to include The Power Of The Doctor.

I expect to be done in early 2026 with no weeks off. If I time it right I can add the 14th and 15th Doctor to this run.
