New Who reviews

The Master returns with a ridiculous plot to end life on Earth as we know it, and even Barack Obama shakes his head at this one.

Grown men wet themselves as the Doctor summons the Time Lord Victorious and introduces the concept of fixed points in time

Kleptomaniacs, coprophages and a scientist fanboy battle a civilisation-devouring sharknado from outer space

A steampunk cyber giant, a TARDIS balloon and a terrible ending

The Doctor abandons Rose with a genocidal Donna in Tennant-form and there’s no sign of The Shadow Proclamation anywhere!

Companions and spin-offs collide when Davros and his new race of Daleks transport the Earth far across the universe

A Beetle Backpack, the Death of the Doctor and the Return of Rose. Could this be any more epic?!

A tense, psychological thriller and some terrifically high-concept sci-fi, this is RTD’s Reservoir Dogs in space

The Runaway Bride finally gets herself a husband and takes care of cookie-cutter kids in Star Trek Generation’s “Nexus”.

A tonne of foreshadowing and a very common courtesy unit, plus the very first appearance of Professor River Song (on our timeline)
