The post title speaks for itself, really. Amazon.co.uk has recently been brilliant for cheap Who, both new and classic. Currently you can find Series One for £15, Series Two and Three for £17, Series Four for £35 and the Beneath the Surface box set (containing Jon Pertwee stories Doctor Who and the Silurians, The Sea Devils, Peter Davison story Warriors of the Deep, and a documentary on the Silurians and Sea Devils. Voted "Best DVD Release of 2008" in the DWM merchandise poll), but in my opinion the best deal right now on the online shopping site is getting Season 23 (taking place in the Colin Baker-Sixth Doctor era), commonly known as 14-part story (the longest ever for the series!) Trial of a Time Lord, for just £17.98. I recently purchased the box set, complete with a packaged documentary on the whole Colin Baker era, and have to say it's an absolutely brilliant story, contrary to some fans' opinions when they first saw it when it aired. It also does showcase how delightful a quality of episode the show can produce even when on a low budget, and the documentary really helps justify all the flaws to be easily found. £20 for this big ol' box set? Absolute bargain. Have you or will you be buying this set?
