Tim's Take On...

The latest story in my classic series rewatch to get the mini review treatment is Doctor Who: The Sensorites a much derided story when it comes to early Dr Who, I thought it was fine even if it does suffer from being overlong. You read more about the story here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sensorites and Adverntures with the wife in space's verdict on it is here http://wifeinspace.com/2011/02/...

Is this a DVD I see before me? It sure is! Join me as I literally blow the dust off my copy of Doctor Who: The Aztecs and give it the "first thoughts" mini review treatment, it's certainly true that this isn't my favourite first Doctor story but also it's one that has grown on me over the years. End theme is Doctor Who theme(Band aid mix)  You can read more about the story here http://en.wikipedia...
