The Eternal Mystery

A trailer for the Season 22 Collectors DVD really could have just been a voiced over, simple trailer of existing footage. Nobody would ave been upset by that. It wouldn't be out of anybody's set of expectations.

And yet, they built a set. They hired an actor. They brought back Peri for a scene and Baker even does a voice over. It's the most impressive ad to a DVD set you'll ever see, especially for a show and season that aired so long ago. It really does a good job at selling this set of DVD stuff as something of substance worth buying. It's a clear demonstration of the production behind this collection actually caring, and wanting to offer a product of value. And that's great. So is Nicola Bryant. She is really special in here and it is just cool seeing her live action so at home with her character of Peri.

Don't expect much of this trailer and it will do nothing but impress you. It really didn't have to be anything of substance but it reeks of an impressive level of effort, sincerity, and care to it that I just can't help but be won over by it, even with mild limitations like stock music and a relatively cheap looking digital camera.
