vivdunstanA review from a rewatch the other week, as we continue our 20 years on rewatch of this series of Doctor Who.
I still liked a lot about it. Elton and his gang are a charming bunch of misfits, and I found it impossible not to relate to them. The monster is as daft as I remember, and really gross at times. There are the best scenes ever for Rose's Mum Jackie, with superb acting from Camille Coduri. The sex joke at the episode end is not good and I still have problems with how one character ends up, and that it's supposed to be an ok ending.
But yes, still enjoyable, and definitely not for me the worst of the worst episodes. And hey, bonus points for the ELO music.
