Doctor Who: Series 5 (Blu-ray)

 After his explosive regeneration, the Eleventh Doctor awakes to discover his TARDIS is about to crash! After falling from the sky, he pulls himself out of the wreckage to come face-to-face with young Amy Pond.
The Doctor promises to take Amy to the stars. But first they must divert an alien plot that could destroy the Earth! The Doctor makes good his promise, and Amy boards the regenerated TARDIS, ready to take to the stars on a series of wild adventures that will change her life. As always, wherever the Doctor goes, his oldest enemies are never far behind - the Daleks are hatching a new master plan from the heart of war-torn London in the 1940s. But they are not the only strange creatures the Doctor and Amy must face - there are also alien vampires, humanoid reptiles, old enemies such as the Weeping Angels, and a silent menace that follows Amy and the Doctor around wherever they go.

The Eleventh Hour
The Doctor has regenerated into a brand new man, but danger strikes before he can even recover. With the TARDIS wrecked, and the sonic screwdriver destroyed, the new Doctor has just twenty minutes to save the whole world - and only Amy Pond to help him.

The Beast Below
The Doctor takes Amy to the distant future, where she finds Britain in space. Starship UK houses the future of the British people, as they search the stars for a new home. But as Amy explores, she encounters the terrifying Smilers and learns a deadly truth inside the Voting Booth.

Victory of the Daleks
The Doctor has been summoned by an old friend, but in the Cabinet War Rooms far below the streets of London, it's his oldest enemy he finds waiting for him. The Daleks are back - but can Winston Churchill be in league with them?

The Time of Angels
Don't blink - the Weeping Angels return! The Doctor is recruited by Father Octavian (Iain Glen) to track the last of the Angels through the terrifying Maze of the Dead. And the mysterious River Song (Alex Kingston) is back in the Doctor's life - but can he trust her?

Flesh and Stone
No way back, no way up, no way out. Trapped among an army of Weeping Angels, the Doctor and his friends must try to escape through the wreckage of a crashed space liner - but in the forest vault, Amy Pond finds herself under a yet more deadly attack.

The Vampires of Venice
Desiccated corpses, terror in the canal, and the sinister House of Calvierri - the Doctor takes Amy and Rory for a romantic mini-break. But 17th Century Venice is not as it should be. The city has been sealed to protect it from the plague - or does Rosanna Calvierri have other plans? Helen McCrory guest stars.

Amy's Choice
It's been five years since Amy Pond traveled with the Doctor, and when he lands in her garden again, on the eve of the birth of her first child, she finds herself facing a heartbreaking choice - one that will change her life forever. Toby Jones guest stars.

The Hungry Earth
2015: the most ambitious drilling project in history has reached deeper below the Earth's crust than man has ever gone - but now the ground itself is fighting back. The Doctor, Amy, and Rory arrive in a tiny mining village and find themselves battling a deadly danger from a bygone age. Meera Syal, Stephen Moore, and Neve McIntosh guest star.

Cold Blood
The most important day in the history of Earth - the dawn of a new age of harmony or the start of its final war. The Doctor must face his most difficult challenge yet - a battle he can't take sides in, and a day when nobody must die... Meera Syal, Stephen Moore and Neve McIntosh guest star.

Vincent and the Doctor
Terror lurks in the cornfields of Provence, but only a sad and lonely painter can see it. Amy Pond finds herself shoulder to shoulder with Vincent Van Gogh (Tony Curran), in a battle with a deadly alien - saving the world has never been so ginger.

The Lodger
There's a house on Aickman road, and a staircase that people go up, but never down. To solve the mystery of the man upstairs, the Doctor must face his greatest challenge - he must pass himself off as a perfectly normal human being and share a flat with Craig Owens.

The Pandorica Opens
According to legend, the Pandorica contains the most feared being in all the cosmos, a monster soaked in the blood of a billion galaxies. The Doctor's friends unite to send him a terrible warning - the Pandorica is opening. But what's inside, and can even the Doctor stop it?

The Big Bang
The Doctor is gone, the TARDIS has been destroyed, and the universe is collapsing. The only hope for all of reality is a little girl who still believes in stars...

"Smith is a man who could have been born with a stripy scarf round his neck... A+ to the casting director. A+ to
Smith... Karen Gillan, as his sidekick Amy Pond, was a fine foil... A+ again" Daily Telegraph

"Smith may be young but he is no young pretender. He has authority and he has other-worldliness, and they are mostly what a Doctor Who needs. That and smart writing. Moffat's script... was witty and intelligent" The Times

"Matt Smith was marvellous. From the first second we saw him, hanging grimly on for dear life to the TARDIS as it hurtled over London, we knew we were in safe hands" Daily Express

The Doctor
The Doctor is an adventurer through time and space, exploring the most wonderful and terrible places in the universe... and usually ending up in trouble. The Eleventh Doctor arrives, now ready to face the future, boarding his newly-refitted TARDIS with a brand-new friend and brand-new enthusiasm to see what's out there among the stars...

Amy Pond
Amy is a feisty young girl living in a sleepy old village. Looking for adventure, she gets far more than she bargained for when she meets the Doctor. Her world and the entire universe change forever once she steps on board the TARDIS.

Rory Williams
Rory Williams is Amy Pond's boyfriend, a straightforward sort of guy who works as a nurse. He's known Amy since they were children, when she made him dress up as her legendary 'raggedy Doctor'. That's why Rory entered the medical profession.

Rory's compassionate, inquisitive, and as we'll see, capable of great bravery and endurance. He usually finds himself hoping that whatever alien horrors he encounters can be successfully defeated by thumping them. He loves Amy, but the Doctor sometimes exasperates him. And he worries that Amy's only with him because he reminds her of the Time Lord. A bit. Following them both around might get Rory into a lot of trouble.
