    christopher eccleston what a dr, second only to tom baker, this new series is a mind blower, i've never enjoyed a series so much, billie piper was an inspired choice for the role of rose, i dont know how they can top this, just the right mix of humour and horror, excellant, this is a much watch series.

    Fantastic!

    At last it is here on DVD - Volume one of the new adventures of Doctor Who.

    This contains the first three episodes:

    Rose - ****/5

    The End of the World - *****/5

    The Unquiet Dead - *****/5

    But alas, not a single extra for us die hard Who fans!

    The episodes themselves are all very good - The Unquiet Dead being the standout "classic style" Who adventure.

    Even if you've seen them on tv, it's worth revisiting to see if you can spot the subtle build-up to the series mind blowing finale (pay close attention in episode 2)

    The Doctor's back, and it's about time!
