Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Yes, "The Five Doctors" is the one that gathers together Hartnell, Troughton, Pertwee, Baker, and Davison, dumps them on some moorland, and lets some of the Doctor's greatest enemies take potshots at them. Except, of course, William Hartnell had passed on by the time this series was made in 1983 (although his replacement Richard Hurndall does an excellent job), and Tom Baker was only featured as a patched-in cameo, apparently prevented from joining in by a temporal thingummy. However, this kind of creakiness comes with the territory and is soon forgotten. The assorted incarnations of the Doctor (together with a scattering of assistants) are drawn together through time and space to battle Daleks, Cybermen, Yeti--those weird androids that keep jumping into the air and disappearing--and many other old foes. They realize that they're on their home planet of Gallifrey and must eventually deal with the legacy of Rassilon, founder of the Time Lords. --Roger Thomas Average Rating:

He was a little disapointed, not enough Tom Baker! Rating:  - "To lose is to win, and he who wins shall lose."It pains me greatly to give any "Doctor Who" DVD less than four stars. I love this show, and in my biased and embarrassingly overenthusiastic way consider "Doctor Who" at its worst to be light years ahead of most shows at their best. Unfortunately, if I needed an actual sample to test that theory, "The Five Doctors" would fit the bill nicely. First of all, the entire concept is unoriginal. This is a cardinal sin, for originality is the lifeblood of "Doctor Who" and is what has kept it ... Read More Rating: - Not worth the "special edition" label or the expenseAs a long time fan of Doctor Who I was looking forward to the "EXTRAS" that came with this edition of the Five Doctors. They are worthless. The audio commentary is trite and often difficult to hear and the updated special effects are terrible. If you already own a copy (even VHS) keep it and don't waste your money on this. The story is a romping good time of memories and companions as well as the first five of the Doctor's incarnations so, if you've never seen this episode before, try to get a ...
