The Doctor is back! The third year of new "Doctor
Who" sees the series still going strong with
an initial trio of great episodes.
"Smith and Jones" sees medical student
Martha Jones plunged headlong into the Doctor's
life as her hospital is unexpectedly transported
to the moon and invaded by belligerent space rhinos
the Judoon. Intergalactic policemen, the Judoon
are after an alien criminal who's been hiding
out disguised as a patient. Freema Agyeman makes
a great debut as Martha, in a rollicking story
with a fun sense of humour.
In "The Shakespeare Code", the Doctor
shows off by taking Martha on a trip to Elizabethan
England to meet the Bard himself. But a trio of
very real witches are hovering around the Globe
Theatre, coercing Shakespeare into writing "Love's
Labours Won", a play the Doctor knows was
never written. A superb recreation of London in
1599 is counterpointed by a witty, literate script
from Gareth Roberts for this hugely entertaining
episode.
"Gridlock" sees the Doctor returning
to New Earth, location of last year's season opener,
in the year 5 billion and a bit. He discovers
a culture of eternal traffic jams, where people
are content to sit on the Motorway for literally
years in the hope of actually getting somewhere.
When Martha is kidnapped to make up the numbers
for a carpool lane, he has to plunge through layers
of traffic to rescue her, encountering some old
enemies and an old friend along the way... A 2000AD
story come to life, this one's great fun.
