A solid farewell to the Original Doctor
on February 24, 2014
Posted by: Dave246810
from East Boston
Verified Purchase:Yes
First off, the description is wrong, this is only a 2 disc set. There has never been a 3 disk version available. Outside of that, this is a great story. The Doctor (William Hartnell) and his companiions Ben and Polly arrive in Antarctica in 1986 just in time for the Cybermen to arrive on Earth.
The special features, like all Doctor Who DVDs are extraordinary, including production notes, commentaries and much, much more.
Sadly, most of the final episode does not exist in the BBC archives, so it is represented here as an animated form, alongside the version released for video cassette many years ago.
I highly recommend this to any fan of Doctor Who, or for someone just getting into the 1960's era of the show.
My Best Buy number: 0784792894

What's great about it: 1st Appearance of the Cybermen
What's not so great: This is 1960's Public Television.
I would recommend this to a friend!

A must buy only for completionists
on February 24, 2014

Verified Purchase:Yes
Arc of Infinity is a story from the 20th Season of Doctor Who, and sadly gets mired down in that anniversary. The story stars Peter Davison as the Fifth Doctor, alongside Tegan and Nyssa. The plot was rather slow, and pacing off a bit.
The highlight is the guest appearance of future Sixth Doctor Colin Baker as Commander Maxil.
If you are trying to complete a collection of Doctor Who DVDs, this is clearly a must buy. If you are a solid fan of the show, also a buy as this is better than a lot of Doctor Who produced at this time. If you are trying to see what Doctor Who is about, there are better stories out there to start with, such as "Spearhead From Space," "City of Death," and "The Caves of Androzani."

This Doctor Who adventure from 1975 stars Tom Baker as the Doctor, who lands with Sarah Jane on what appears to be an abandoned space station, only to discover that the final survivors of the human race are aboard, in cryogenic sleep, and a parasitic insect race threatens to wipe them out completely.

A solid first outing for the Fourth Doctor
on February 24, 2014
Posted by: Dave246810
from East Boston
Verified Purchase:Yes
After 5 years with Jon Pertwee in the role, the new Doctor arrives at last in the personage of Tom Baker. This story also introduces the late Ian Marter as Lt. Harry Sullivan, who travelled with the Doctor throughout this season.
Having just regenerated after the events of "Planet of the Spiders", the Doctor finds himself up agains the Giant Robot, or rather its evil masters. Lots of humor and action throughout as we see the seeds of where Tom Baker will bring the 4th Doctor. This is a required story to own for all fans of Doctor Who.

Best Season 7 Story
on February 24, 2014
Posted by: Dave246810
from East Boston
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is the best and final episode of Season 7, starring Jon Pertwee in the role of the Doctor, with Caroline John as Liz Shaw, the Doctor's Assistant as well as the UNIT folks. Like many stories from this era, there is a not unnoticable "ecological" vibe throughout the story.
The only downside to this story is that clocking in at 7 episodes, it is at least one episode too long. On the plus side, we get to visit an alternate universe, where we get to see the evil versions of Liz, the Brigadier and Benton amongst others. I recommend to buy this one.

Great Soda Stream Flavor

Soda Stream flavors tend to be hit or miss for me, but the Diet Grape is excellent. It tastes just like grape soda from a bottle. I highly recommend if you like grape soda.

Lots of excitement in this series of Doctor Who

Verified Purchase:Yes
Another great series of Doctor Who from the minds at the BBC. Lots of excitement and mystery around the character of Clara, and a great send off for Amy and Rory. While opinions will vary somewhat, I feel there are far more goor or great episodes then bad ones. Highly recommend for your purchase if you are a sci-fi fan.

Extra bottles are a necessity

Verified Purchase:Yes
Having the extra bottles is great since my wife and I do not tend to like the same soda stream flavors, but like being able to make whatever flavors we want. Being able to make multiple liters of soda is also helpful for when guests are over and you can have a variety of flavors.

Great phone for new or experienced user

Verified Purchase:Yes
The Galaxy S4 has been a great upgrade from my Droid Bionic. The best thing is the battery life. I am playing games on the phone and texting constantly and my battery charge still lasts over 12 hours. The system is pretty easy to pick up if you have never used an Android product before, and switching over from an existing Android is as easy as turning the phone on.
