Review of Lightspeed by thedefinitearticle63

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

Previous Story: Aimed at the Body


After the fairly strange opener, we get a more traditional Doctor Who story. The overarching mystery is still very prominent in this story and it's still got the excellent character dynamics of the last one, it's just that it follows a much simpler premise of an intergalactic mob-boss out to get the Doctor. This is a pretty fun story, the only part I found particularly strange was the resolution, in which the Doctor has to kiss everyone on board the ship to save them.

Other than that, it's a decent story but easily the weakest of this anthology. It is good to have atleast one traditional adventure in such a surreal and strange set of stories though


Next Story: The Bookshop at the End of the World
