What NuWho stuff do you actually own?

[rushy]

I have series 1-4 on DVD, plus the 2008-10 specials. I'm likely to get the 2023 specials at some point too. Of Matt's run, I have a DVD with all his Christmas specials. From Capaldi, I only have Twice Upon a Time.

I have a Tenth Doctor sonic screwdriver prop.

Quite a few books: Feast of the Drowned, The Stone Rose, Touched by an Angel, Dead of Winter, The Silurian Gift, Prisoner of the Daleks, Made of Steel, The Deviant Strain. Used to have Code of the Krillitanes as well, but I gave it away as a Christmas special to a girl who I knew liked Doctor Who. Never went anywhere. But to be honest, it wasn't a very good book either, so no big loss.

Also, the Day of the Doctor novelisation, which still gives me PTSD.

I have the first ten seasons on dvd or blu.
No merch or anything else.

Don't have any DVDs but I do have the entirety of NuWho and Classic Who on my personal media server which is stored on an external hard drive. I think there are probably some old action figures and other assorted paraphernalia lying around in the attic somewhere, though I wouldn't be surprised if most of it got lost in transit somewhere along the way. Some old books in boxes as well. I was obsessed with this stuff as a child, but my interest lies solely in the show itself these days; I just don't have the time, money, space, etc. to collect merchandise anymore, not that I'm particularly interested.

Those people who have like every Big Finish CD ever baffle me. 

[iank]

Quite. I bought a lot of the books in the 90s - fiction and non-fiction - but at a certain point it's like enough already.

[Ludders II]

I've only ever had The Dalek Collection, but it had to go in the end.

I did actually buy Series 1 on DVD just because I love the finale. I don't mind the Slitheen ones either and I suppose The Long Game is OK. I'd rather own it than Series 4.

I really need to stop selling stuff off and buying them back a few years later. It's just a waste of money.

I'm on a massive 00s nostalgia tour at the moment. It does seem odd that most of what I like back then is considered a bit rubbish by the general public. Not that I cared about any of that as a kid, mind.

TV was still generally great in the first half of the 2000s. Started going off the boil after about 2004.

I'd say 26th of March 2005.

Those Aliens and Monsters books are pretty much all I have now.

I bought Series 3 on Blu ray the other day. It's still sped up and the quality is only marginally better than the DVD, but I love it so much I wanted to own it on the format.

Is that the one with the 25fps error? I think that means the pitch gets boosted by about a semitone, which would piss me off to no end. David Tennant's voice can be whiney enough. Tallulah any higher would be supersonic.

They changed the pitch so it sounds the same as the normal speed version.


The new Blu ray collection sound vastly superior in regards to picture. I just can't see myself departing with £46 on a NuWho product.
