Review of Doctor Who - Series 2 Vol.2 (DVD)

...is capable of as the Doctor in his first two episodes, he jumps straight in as if it had been him all along in the following episodes. In fact, this is technically true of the character, as the Doctor is the same person with regeneration giving him a different outlook. The three episodes in this DVD have many 'in' jokes and moments that many might not get. I watched them with my wife, who has seen them all before and has just recently finished watching ...

Our latest Doctor is played by the lovely David Tennant, living up-to-date adventures in his big blue box, more commonly known as a TARDIS. But the Doctor ...

Review of Doctor Who - Series 2 Vol.2 (DVD)

An extremly enjoyable and 5 star family entertainment product. The high standars of acting, special effects and powerful dialogue by russell. T. Davies culminates in probably one of the best sci-fi TV series to grace our screens. It is well worth buying as it is not until you re-watch several times until you get all the subtle references and jokes included. The bringing back of an ex-doctors assistant means that there is something extra for long ...
