Review of Blood of the Daleks Part 2 by whitestar1993
7 November 2024
(This is a review for both parts 1 and 2)
For a fresh start for the Eight Doctor, we have a new format based off of NuWho! I enjoyed the shorter and more action filled pace of the story, (though I guess it being a 2 parter made it the same length as the older episodes, regardless though it felt quicker.)
Paul McGann was amazing as always. I love how the Doctor seems to be more sarcastic than usual (and has some great quips.) I wonder if his (slight) personality changes were from the events of Charley's arc.
Sheridan Smith was pretty great as well, though I haven't warmed up to Lucie Miller yet. But I do like how she's a mix of Rose and Donna.
Overall, great story. I'd recommend this to anyone interested in starting Big Finish or the Eighth Doctor. Storm Warning was great, but I think the more modern approach of this might appeal to new ones more.
