In terms of anticipation, this 60th Anniversary bonanza of three specials has had me on tenterhooks for the best part of two years. The big question was, "Could Russell T. Davies win back a jaded, disenfranchised audience and fanbase?" The answer was loud and clear when the first special, "The Star Beast", landed on the 25th November 2023.
To describe my reaction to this episode as emotional would be an understatement. As a viewer since 1973, I had to mop away tears of joy as this glorious televisual feast unravelled before me on the screen.
Tenant and Tate were always an amazing combination of talent. To see them resume their characters from the New Who Golden Age was like a dream...I loved every second of it.
Having grown up with Doctor Who weekly and the work of Pat Mills and John Wagner, I did wonder if this episode was a fevered dream...could this really be unfolding in reality?
Thank you, Russell T. Davies and the entire cast and crew for reviving this show. This is the ultimate special.
