Originally broadcast in April 1966, The Celestial Toymaker sees the Doctor and companions separated when they come up against The Toymaker. While the Doctor plays the Trilogic Game, Steven and Dodo are forced to play seemingly childish but ultimately dangerous games with the aim of being reunited and getting back to the Tardis.
As the original 1966 master recordings have been lost, all episodes have also been animated in separate black and white and colour versions using off-air audio recordings. The lost episodes have also been recreated using still photography and audio recordings. Also features a fully restored original Episode 4, photo gallery, and other extras.
