60 episodes from across the revived show's early years have been upscaled to high definition.
The first four seasons of modern Doctor Who have been remastered for a new release to mark the show's 60th anniversary.
The Blu-ray set – set to be released on 13th November – will include the entirety of the Ninth and Tenth Doctor’s eras, newly-upscaled to high definition.
This includes every episode and special from the first four seasons, as well as bonus features including the featurette A Look Back Through Time and Space, featuring David Tennant and Russell T Davies.
To mark the announcement, the BBC have released a new trailer celebrating the first five years of Doctor Who’s revival from 2005-2010:
The first season of the revived Doctor Who – aired in 2005 – starred Christopher Eccleston as the Ninth Doctor. David Tennant took on the mantle of the Tenth Doctor from Christmas Day 2005, starring in three seasons and a quartet of special episodes, before departing the show in 2010.
