World War Three is a fascinating beast, really. It managed to succeed 45 minutes of fairly loathsome drivel with a pretty good ending to the story, that, for the first time this series, really felt like Doctor Who again. It had nice emotional moments with Jackie and Mickey (characters who have improved noticeably) and some rather good action, building to a truly epic ending as a Royal Navy missile hurtled towards Downing Street and the alien Slitheen came within touching distance of controlling Britains nuclear arms. And, unbelievably, the music, which throughout the series has been God-awful, really helped! To be honest, I liked World War Three. Filters: Series 1/27 Ninth Doctor Television |
