Lego Dimensions was a cute enough idea, but part of that questionable toys-to-life trend a few games attempted back in the day. That makes this content difficult to revisit and kind of in this weird place for the franchise's history.

That aside, the game itself is pretty fun. If you've played a Lego game you can know what to expect. It is very generic, simple, and accessible. It's just fine, really, much like the story, which feels like a standard DLC tie-in for the game. What is cool is how authentic a number of Doctor Who things are recreated in Lego form, with lots of great voice acting, audio from the show, and even Murray Gold music to enhance it heavily. It all showcases how much of a missed opportunity Doctor Who video games feel like. There is a lot of potential for a great Doctor Who game, I'm just not sure it exists anywhere. This one is at least competently made, and it is fun having the Doctor meet Batman and Gandalf, I guess, but that is heavily diminished by the voice actors used for these non-Who characters and the lacklustre story, which doesn't even really focus on Doctor Who characters much at all.
