Editorial Review:
Amazon.co.uk Review: It was always going to be a risk for the BBC to revamp Doctor Who--few television programmes inspire as much rabid and cultish adoration. With the 2005 series, however, the BBC have really outdone themselves. Their updated Doctor Who is a revelation: a cult science fiction series that has real mass appeal, and works for both children and their parents. Christopher Eccleston is an inspired and charismatic Doctor--he leaps around the sets with an unrestrained glee, like he's a child running amok in a toy shop. His enthusiasm in downright infectious. His sidekick Rose (Billie Piper) adds a real human touch, particularly as she gradually and believably matures from in-over-her-head city kid to tough-minded interplanetary hero. Much of the credit must go to writer Russell Davies, who has a much-practiced knack for finding popular appeal without dumbing-down his ideas, and who appears to have let his imagination run riot. Even the special effects, whilst not of a big-budget cinematic quality, still manage to strike a balance between cheesiness and realism. Thrilling, funny and thoroughly entertaining, this Doctor Who is a hero for the new millennium. --Robert Burrow

... and the irony was, for years after the very last broadcast of the old series in the 1980's, it was certain that the most anticipated thing was indeed the next Doctor, and the next season. And we waited and waited.
If we had known what was going to actually happen, we would have all gone collectively insane. How many years?
Several instances of breaking news occurred in that long interval. Always disappointing; time and time again there was news of a revival; the final ... Read More

A brave new start for a brave new series. Christopher Eccleston's casting is inspired: he's modern and gobby but retains all the classic "Doctorish" traits of his predecessors. Billie Piper is a revelation to all who cringe at the memory of her brief pop career. The episodes are fast-paced and snappy, and the series opens with a good, lightweight introduction to our heroes before starting to explore the possibilities of the show's format.
My favourite episode here is probably The End of ... Read More

I am not old enough to have seen the old series of Doctor who and I am not usually a sci fi fan but I really enjoyed Doctor who, it has really good storylines and the acting is brilliant.
Christopher Eccleston who acts the Doctor gives the character some great humour but he can also be quite serious.Billie Piper who acts Rose Tyler is a great new companion for the Doctor and she seems very comfortable in her role.Camille Codouri who plays Rose' mum and Noel Clarke who plays Rose' boyfriend ...

If, unlike me you were fortunate enough not to have read mad_mushroom's ‘attention seeking’ and some what off the topic style review, then I hope you have made your mind up about the excellent series of Doctor who. Unfortunately for mad_mushroom, he seems to confuse politics and youth with a Sci Fi TV series – not what it’s about folks. BULLY BLAIR? A FEW YEARS YOU'LL BE ABLE TO VOTE? Maybe it's me, but just because buyers under the age of 18 cannot vote, doesn't ... Read More
