I'm kind of confused. It made sense to do a digital box set of Sarah Jane Smith as Comeback didn't have a digital release for a very long time. Every episode here has been available to download for basically forever, so why did they bundle them up like this? They could have just reduced the price of the original bundle and saved on commissioning some new artwork.
The series is actually pretty good though, so anyone interested should give it a look.

More than worth the ridiculously fair price.
If you like Mature drama, Tennant playing an utter G** and Nicolas Courtney being an utterly class act, this is for you.

I really wanted to like this series but it felt a bit scattered and didn't quite gel for me. I thought "The Coup" prologue was the best of the five stories by far and you can still grab that one for free.
That said, the price point is more than reasonable and I love this approach to digitally repackage and highlight older content that might not otherwise stand out for casual buyers.

I honestly wasn’t much taken with this series. The regulars are fine, though their chemistry doesn’t really get going till Snakehead, and the Brig works well in his brief appearance, but ICIS are quite poorly defined as a villain (I still have no idea what they’re trying to achieve in The Wasting).

I vaguely remember this. Not very good.

The problem with this series, if it can be called that, is that it wasn't what people expected.
People wanted a modern version of the Pertwee years with the invasion of the week.

I really like this series, and as a huge DT fan it was great hearing him when I first heard it. I love it when he plays, well, unsympathetic characters.

This is actually my favourite version of UNIT and I really wish there had been more of it.
