Review of The Rhino of Twenty-Three Strand Street by hallieday

This review contains spoilers!

The Thirteenth Doctor #8

'Where's the Doctor?' (2018) from Doctor Who The Official Annual 2019.


Another story here which doesn't seem to be on Tardis Guide as of yet, and that's unfortunate as it's quite a good one. Mainly because it canonises Queen Elizabeth II as being a great big lizard - aside from that it's more of a collage of all of The Doctor's incarnations all being present for her coronation. Not really much of a focus on Thirteen.


The Thirteenth Doctor #9

'The Rhino of Twenty-Three Strand Street' (2018) from Twelve Angels Weeping.


A nice little story focusing on a young girl in Dublin who comes across a "rhino" hiding in a hologram-protected neighbour's house. Works well as a character study for her and seems to come from a very truthful place, personally relating with me with its seemingly autistic representation. I wish The Doctor was in it more, which I could say about a few of her EU stories so far unfortunately, but her brief appearance towards the end is cute.
