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

Previous Story: The Invasion of Time

Just a very bland story. It's got meaningless action, the characters are forgettable, even the Doctor feels flat and uninteresting.

I suppose the villains are fairly interesting as space gangsters and I'm aware they will come up later, but otherwise this story feels dull.

Not a very good start to Series 8 of the 4DAs, I hope it'll get better.

Next Story: Planet of the Drashigs
