"He's back...and it's about time!"
4K Restoration
The Doctor is returning home to Gallifrey with the remains of his arch-nemesis, the Master. Forced off course, the TARDIS arrives in San Francisco on New Year’s Eve 1999, where the Doctor is critically wounded in a gangland gun battle. At the local hospital, Dr Grace Holloway fights – and fails – to save his life.
Later, in the morgue, the Doctor wakes up a new man. But he is not the only one – the Master has also found himself a new body. As the clock counts down to the start of the new millennium, can the Doctor stop his oldest enemy destroying all life on Earth?
30 years ago, Paul McGann burst onto screens as the eight incarnation of The Doctor in this TV movie. Co-produced with Universal, it brought the Doctor back from the wilderness since it went off air in 1989.
We are delighted to be joined by Paul Vanezis and Mark Ayres, two of the team behind the 4K remastering of the movie for it's 30th anniversary release.
