'Doctor Who,' 'Top Gear' and New TV Shows on DVD, Streaming Online for Feb. 15, 2011
'Doctor Who' mastermind Steven Moffat crafted a thrilling and emotional adventure in 'A Christmas Carol,' last year's 'Doctor Who' Christmas special.'Carol' holds a special place in the hearts of fans; it was the first 'Who' holiday episode to air in the U.S. on Christmas day. The ep was praised for its imaginative, timey-wimey narrative and its strong emotional punch.
This new classic, on DVD and Blu-Ray today, also boasts fine turns from special guest stars Michal Gambon and international singing star Katherine Jenkins, and, of course, the Doctor himself, Matt Smith.
Also new on DVD and Blu-ray today are the 14th and 15th seasons of 'Top Gear,' the hit BBC series about all things auto. Nab both seasons and put a smile on your favorite motorhead's face.
