List of BBC DVD releases

BBC DVD is a division of BBC Worldwide. It has released Doctor Who (and later Torchwood and The Sarah Jane Adventures) stories from 1999 until the present.

1999
Doctor Who was chosen as one of six DVDs released to represent the BBC as a 'test' of the DVD market by BBC Worldwide. (The other titles were The Black Adder, Noddy in Toyland, The Planets, Persuasion, and Volume I of The Best of Monty Python’s Flying Circus.)

The chosen title for this 'test' was The Five Doctors, which was picked due to an already existing in a Special Edition format from the BBC Video release of 1995, which allowed it it to take 'better advantage' of the DVD format with the use of 5.1 Surround Sound.

2002
Pyramids of Mars was originally to have been Tom Baker title released in the second slot, but issues to do with contract negotiations led to it being postponed and The Ark in Space was put in its place. After the release of The Five Doctors, the original plan was to release one title from each Doctor of the eight Doctors, but as the range progressed this was not quite achieved as The Ark in Space and Carnival of Monsters were then slipped into the schedule to prevent two black and white stories being released back to back.
