J'ai bien aimé le style des dessins et leur utilisation qui parfois racontent plus que ce qui est narré par Tennant. I never took the time to watch this little episode because I thought it was just David Tennant dressed as the Doctor telling a story and... that's kind of it, but it's still a nice little story for children. I liked the style of the drawings and their use, which sometimes tell more than what is narrated by Tennant. (Translation generated by AI, so mistakes are possible).
