Dr Who: Series 6 Part One: Blu Ray review
Dr Who Series 6 Part One - Blu Ray
Rating: PG
Released by Roadshow and BBC
Matt
Smith returns as the 11th Doctor in this latest (truncated) series of seven
episodes.
Continuing the formula which has proven
so popular, show producer Steven Moffat's crafted a clever way to hook viewers
in this year with this split season - starting with the Doctor's apparent death,
the story arc over these seven episodes is strong and culminates in the apparent
solving of who Alex Kingston's River Song is.
While the opening two parter isn't one for non fans as it weaves show
mythology with pacy American adventure, it's certainly a gripping start - all of
the main quartet acquit themselves well. New villains The Silence are incredibly
spooky and scary and while later villains aren't as terrifying, the story
telling is solid but the seventh episode creaks under the weight of expectation
Still it's not a bad run of adventures - you just
can't help feeling the best's being kept for the final batch of six.
Extras: Disappointingly only two minor featurettes -
again, best being saved for the full season set.
Rating: 7/10
