This is part of a series of reviews of Doctor Who in chronological timeline order. Previous Story: An Eye for Murder What a great little story. I quite liked The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time and this is a charming homage to it. I like the implication that the Doctor (Six in particular) is autistic. I don't normally like Nev Fountain's work, it's a bit too whimsical and absurd for me, but this was great. It balanced the right amount of ridiculous and heartfelt making it a really fun story and a good one overall. A great way to cap off this anthology in my opinion.

MICHAEL: Because of your trousers. DOCTOR: What about my trousers? MICHAEL: I watched you go about in the back gardens for three nights now, and you have worn the same yellow trousers for three nights. DOCTOR: Well... MICHAEL: My mum says wearing the same trousers every day is dirty. DOCTOR: Well I do have an explanation— MICHAEL: There is only one creature in the universe that never changes its trousers. And that is gnomes. And you are bigger than a normal gnome, therefore you are the chief gnome. DOCTOR: I think I’m beginning to see your logic. — The Curious Incident of the Doctor in the Night-Time Show All Quotes (2) Open in new window
