    The Verdict

    Probably the most thorough and enlightening Doctor Who DVD released so far. This set encompasses an entire season (the 23rd, 1986) of the Classic series, at a time when the show was at it most turbulent behind the scenes. This set not only presents the season as aired in pristine quality, but serves up an amazing array of extra features that looks at the whole story behind the production -- the good and the bad. Seen possibly for the first time in full context, this set sheds a whole new light on one the most misunderstood seasons of the show.

    What we get is a solid story arc, with three stand-alone adventures presented as evidence in the Doctor's trial, with a fourth installment set in the Matrix wrapping up the story threads. While admittedly not the best effort of the Classic series (the documentaries reveal the turmoil going on in the production office that contributed to this) , but not nearly as bad as its reputation -- it actually proves to be a very enjoyable romp with some fine performances by Colin Baker (the Doctor), Michael Jaysted (the Valeyard), Lynda Bellingham (the Inquisitor), Tony Selby (Glitz) and Nabil Shaban (Sil) in particular.

    I highly recommend this set, not only for the enjoyable story being told on screen, but for the unparalleled look at the drama unfolding behind the scenes as well.
