Review of Aliens of London by epcot
7 November 2024
I adore this episode. I don't know if it's just the nostalgia from loving this episode as a child, but something about it perfectly scratches the itch in my brain when I just need a random, monster-of-the-week episode of Doctor Who to watch. I assess the elephant in the room, the fart jokes, as a well-meaning attempt to insert some humor into this otherwise slightly stuffy storyline. Upon a rewatch, the acting from the Slitheen family is better than many people would remember, and I feel that Eccleston (my personal favorite) absolutely shines as the Doctor in this episode. Overall, a good time.
