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

Previous Story: The Reaping

Decent, but nothing spectacular. Henry VIII is really insufferable here, though I suppose he's meant to be. The first half of this story manages to drag, which is impressive considering it's only 37 minutes long. It gets slightly more interesting when the stuff with the Scrivener starts happening, but that's full of plotholes. Anne Boleyn is the only somewhat interesting character and even then she feels quite generic. Overall, a rough start to this collection of short stories.
