Easter Eggs


Some Doctor Who discs contain hidden features that are more or less easy to find.  These features are usually so small and insignificant that they would not really be appropriate for inclusion on the main disc menu.  However, disc producers sometimes like to sneak these little gems onto the disc in "hidden" places.  These are referred to as Easter Eggs. 

WARNING: This page may contain information that you want to discover yourself.   Read at your own peril...
