My thoughts on... Amy's Choice

Now then, onto one of the most underrated episodes of Series 5 (yes, I said it.) Amy's Choice. I have seen that many people have different views on this episode, some good and some bad. My opinion on it is that it is a very good episode. So, let's start off today's review: Many of the things I like about the episode is The Dream Lord. He was such an amazing villain as I really enjoyed the concept of him being a reflection of The Doctor, even though we only discover this until the episode ends; it's a nice twist. Amy and Rory are also a very intriguing part of this episode. I feel that this episode gives us an idea about what their life is like without The Doctor and the fact that they have to choose between worlds is a very important part of the episode as Amy has to decide for a world without Rory or a world with The Doctor in The TARDIS. As well as having a very emotional feel to it, it also introduces the amazing old people aliens. I'm calling them that because we didn't find out their names. I remember being quite scared of them when watching this episode as they add the essential fear factor to the episode which is what Doctor Who relies on. Finally, the ending of this episode is very nice as it shows The Doctor, Amy and Rory going off into Time and Space again which was a lovely end to a very underrated episode.

WHO FAN SITE REVIEWS: SERIES 1 EPISODE 4: ALIENS OF LONDON Rating: 9/10 Now then, straight onto one of the weirdest Doctor Who two parters of the Nu-Who era. Although some may consider it as an episode only worth the meme quality but I think it introduced some really interesting new aliens which sadly weren't in the series that much. I also think it handled the issue of the dangers of travelling or, in Rose's case: Travelling through Space and Time. I think a really powerful scene in the episode was when Rose arrived home and went to see Jackie, her mother and the shock on Jackie's face at her daughters return was very natural acting from Camille Coduri. I also enjoyed the cameo of future Torchwood character Toshiko Sato and the space pig was just pure brilliance. Harriet Jones was also a strong character in this episode because of her bravery when she decided to just go off with The 9th Doctor and Rose. As well as being quite gritty and hard hitting, this episode did have ...

Who Fan Site Reviews: Doctor Who Series 1 Episode 3: The Unquiet Dead

  WHO FAN SITE REVIEWS: SERIES 1 EPISODE 3: THE UNQUIET DEAD Rating: 8.5/10 Now onto the first historical episode of Nu-Who, The Unquiet Dead. I actually really enjoyed this episode because it had a great scary, eerie feel to it with the Gelth. Also, I think this episode did really well sort of introducing Russell T Davies' Torchwood with Gwen Cooper (or Gwyneth) in this episode, who would later appear in hit Doctor Who spin-off series Torchwood. Charles Dickens was portrayed marvellously by the brilliant Simon Callow, really showing Charles Dickens full life story. I also remember being really scared by the old lady Gelth and the scene when she smashes the Coffin lid open and escapes was really chilling. By now though, I have looked back at this episode and noted that there were a few flaws: The lack of Rose and The Doctor exploring Victorian Cardiff was not present but I think that when they met Charles Dickens, it really changed the way of the story and I really enjoyed the scen...
