This was an absolute joy to watch. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who doesn't have a soft spot for classic who. If you're part of the target audience though, it's an absolute hit.

An awfully great bit of showbiz self-parody. Funny even if you've never seen Doctor Who, immensely hilarious if you have.

Hilarious piece of satire, and one of the best things to come out of the 50th.
