TV Find above an absolutely adorable short trip to herald the release of Season 22 to BD. When I watched these again in situ (gods) nearly ten years ago, I found them to be pretty middling, mostly because the approach to producing forty-five minutes episodes amounted to stretching the content of a half hour instalment to fill the time rather than increase the richness of the story or incident which leads to moments like the one in Timelash were the Doctor and Peri are parked in a green room uncomfortably waiting for the next bit of plot to arrive.
This release includes A Fix With Sontarans which should be quite controversial if it features as is could be a source of controversy. The chance are, as Martin Belam says, it'll be topped and tailed somehow, perhaps fading out just as Tegan shouts "Doctor, look at the screen ..." providing a cliffhanger. The "story" was also mentioned in a documentary on the special features about the hiatus. Will they keep that in or will we lose Colin's intriguing line, "J---- S------ is much more frightening than the Sontarans, much more. I will leave it at that." Oh.
