Review of The Broken Crown by thedefinitearticle63

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

Previous Story: Tsar Wars

I have mixed feelings about this one. On one hand, its a very fun concept, the chemistry between the Doctor and Mrs Wibbsey is great and the story plays with some interesting themes of being socially outcast. Unfortunately, Andrew (the main child protagonist) is just really annoying and the fact that they are the one narrating it means we have to sit through this story mostly from their perspective. The actor, Guy Harvey, is also unconvincing and annoying.

Other than that though, it is a fairly good story and the Skishtari egg is something I'm keen to find out more about.

Next Story: Aladdin Time
