This is part of a series of reviews of Doctor Who in chronological timeline order.

Previous Story: Business Unusual

Classic Doctors, New Monsters is just banger after banger huh. This story is absolutely brilliant, you'd think it wouldn't work given how heavily linked the Clockwork Droids are to The Girl in the Fireplace and then they manage to make a story 10 times better than that one.

The whole story is really weird, I was sat there wondering for a whole hour why this story had the reputation it did. And then the reveal hit, and all the pieces just fell into place like clockwork (pun intended). I'd go as far to say that it was one of my top 10 twists in all of Doctor Who, up there with Heaven Sent (which this story reminds me of in quite a few ways).

I genuinely urge anyone who is even remotely interested in any of the things in this story to listen to it because I can 100% guarantee that you will NOT be disappointed.
