Out of all of the stories in this collection I'd say this is the closest a Whoniverse adaption has been to it's original telling. The beauty of Cinderella's story with an underused villain. "Vampires of Venice" was a great introduction for a new monster that has since been criminally forgotten about. This story uses them perfectly.

I adore how the 11th Doctor is a parallel to Cinderella's Fairy Godmother, the chariot being the TARDIS, and the final dance having sinister purposes. And a fairy tale like this would be incomplete without - as the 11th Doctor would say - "happy endings 😊🎈"

A beautiful story ♥️
