Doctor Who - Series 3 Vol.4 (DVD)

...only three parter in the Doctor Who series and when you begin to watch the first you will soon realise that the story being told is way too extravagant for a simple two parter… With a massive cast brought in for these episodes we see the return of a few familiar characters, some thought dead and buried… some who don't realise who they are… The first episode uncovers who's who and the episode thereafter simply enthral the audience with such brilliant ...
...end of the universe the Doctor soon discovers that human kind has almost gone, the only survivors living in fear from a cannibal tribe of interbred human types, hiding away inside a silo where a scientist called Professor Yana, (played by Derek Jacobi) and his insectoid assistant Chanto, (played by Chipo Chung), hoping to find the power to launch a rocket to take the surviving humans to a place called Utopia… the land of hope and glory, somewhere ...

Review of Doctor Who - Series 3 Vol.4 (DVD)

...wrap up series 3 of Doctor Who’s reviews; and impressed as I was with the third volume of releases this forth volume blew me away. For the first time in the series the 3 stories actually run very much as if they are all one, in stead of the usual two parter’s Utopia, The Sound Of Drums, and The Last Of The Timelords become a three part “Epic”. Utopia Having hitched his way on the side of the Tardis the Doctor, Martha, AND NOW Captain Jack arrive ...
...Torchwood) as he and the Doctor strive to ensure that the humans get to Utopia. All the time leaving Martha to unwittingly cause someone from the Doctor’s past to return; memories can be a terrible thing especially when the only key to your past is a watch. In Utopia rather like the episode 42, you have 38 minutes building up to an event. This incredibly well crafted story is a build up, to the shows final five minutes. The result of this makes ...

Review of Doctor Who - Series 3 Vol.4 (DVD)

...very long time, isn't it?! Doctor Who has been around for over four decades now, and it is stronger than ever now! The show was first welcomed to BBC Television in 1963, with William Hartnell playing the Doctor! But more recently, we have enjoyed the adventures of this TimeLord, alongside some fresh, new companions! In 2005, Doctor Who was brought back to our screens, introducing us to the 9th Doctor, Chris Eccleston! He starred alongside Billie ...
...Doctor regenerated, revealing 10th Doctor David Tennant to star in Series 2! He worked alongside Billie until it was time for Series 3...where we are now! Our latest Doctor remained in the clasp of Tennant, but we were introduced to new companion Martha Jones, played by the wonderful Freema Agyeman! ***** The last DVD in the Series 3 collection is quite different! All three episodes are connected, which is quite unusual as, until now, Doctor Who ...

Review of Doctor Who - Series 3 Vol.4 (DVD)

...installment of series 3 of Doctor Who does something we haven't seen before: it gives us a 3 part episode. This having been said, it is also the end of season finale, and as such it is going to be hard to review this disc without giving some of the plot away. So, if you are planning on watching this, be warned I may give away a little. It's necessary, I'm afraid. Up until now in the third series, we have seen a mix of episodes in terms of quality. ...
...three is Utopia, with the Doctor and Martha being transported forward in time by the Tardis to the end of the universe, the year something trillion, something unimaginable to us. Upon landing, they find they have a stowaway - Captain Jack Harkness of Torchwood, who has been searching for the Doctor ever since they parted company way back at the end of Series 1, when Christopher Eccleston was still the Doctor. Jack pauses briefly to flirt with Martha ...

Review of Doctor Who - Series 3 Vol.4 (DVD)

The Doctor Who season 3 finale is definitely one to watch. Combining an excellent story along with brilliant acting, directing and music, too make it a thrilling 2 hours of entertainment. This is the first 3-part storyline since Doctor Who was brought back in 2005 and consists of the episodes 'Utopia', 'The Sound of Drums', and 'Last of the Time Lords'. Often Doctor Who episodes can be a little childish and cheesy, but for these 3 the series becomes ...
...tracks down and rejoins the doctor when he lands the Tardis in Cardiff to refuel. They accidentally wind up in the year 100 trillion and find a professor trying to build a spaceship to take the remains of the human race to a place called Utopia. All is not as it seems though when Martha discovers a fob watch identical to the John Smiths timepiece in earlier episode 'Human Nature' which contained the Doctor's Timelord essence. As the true meaning ...
