In July 2007, this DVD was one of 8 discs re-released in the UK with different cover artwork (in all cases, the discs and their contents were unchanged).

Cover blurb: New Years Eve 1999. Earth is about to run out of time... Returning home to Gallifrey with the remains of his arch enemy, the Master, the TARDIS is forced off course, plunging the Doctor into the middle of a street gang’s gun battle in downtown San Francisco. Critically wounded in the shoot out, the Doctor has to regenerate to save his own life. And he’s not the only one — the Master too has a new body with which to wreak havoc, and his ultimate goal is to take the Doctor’s own existence. As the clock counts down to the start of a new millennium, the Doctor has to stop the Master destroying all life on Earth. But at what cost..? This story was broadcast on BBC1 on 27th May 1996.

Edition:  US (DVD) Title:   The Movie: Special Edition Released:   February 2011 Publisher:   BBC Video Format:  2 x DVD Owned: Do you own this?Yes - I own itNo - I want itNo - not interested Buy: Used:   $42.69 Prices as of 14 Dec 06:41 GMT   More info Used:   $79.99 Prices as of 14 Dec 06:41 GMT   More info Note:  2-disc edition, with same extras as released in the UK/Australia on the Revisitations 1 box set. This was the first ever commercial release of the Doctor Who movie in the US — it had never been released on VHS in the States due to rights issues (similar issues that prevented a North American DVD release in 2001). Cover blurb: The Doctor is returning home to Gallifrey with the remains of his arch-nemesis, the Master. Forced off course, the TARDIS arrives in San Francisco on New Year’s Eve 1999, where the Doctor is critically wounded in a gangland gun battle. At the local hospital, Dr. Grace Holloway fights — and fails — to save his life. Later, in the morgue, the Doctor wakes up a new man. But he is not the only one — the Master has also found himself a new body. As the clock counts down to the start of the new millennium, can the Doctor stop his oldest enemy from destroying all life on Earth?

Edition:  UK (Blu-ray) Released:   September 2016 Publisher:   BBC Video Format:  2 x Blu-ray Owned: Do you own this?Yes - I own itNo - I want itNo - not interested Buy: New:   £7.18 Used:   £24.00 Prices as of 14 Dec 06:41 GMT   More info Note:   Although the movie was mostly filmed on 35mm film and so would be a candidate for a “true” HD release on Blu-ray, the actual film negatives are property of Universal and it is thought to be too difficult & expensive for the BBC to obtain them for such a release. Therefore this Blu-ray has been upscaled from SD. Full list of extras on the official Doctor Who site — in a nutshell, the extras are the same as the “Revisitations” DVD edition, but with the addition of the 2013 mini-episode The Night of the Doctor. Cover blurb: The Doctor is returning home to Gallifrey with the remains of his arch-nemesis, the Master. Forced off course, the TARDIS arrives in San Francisco on New Year’s Eve 1999, where the Doctor is critically wounded in a gangland gun battle.
