Doctor Who Series 1 Vol 1

dvd-series1vol1Starring: Christopher Eccleston, Billie Piper, Simon Callow, Zoe Wanamaker (Voice), Camille Coduri.

Directed by: Keith Brook, Euros Lyn

This volume contains the first three adventures from the 2005 series of ‘Doctor Who’.

Christopher Eccleston’s Doctor is wise and funny, cheeky and brave. An alien and a loner (it’s difficult keeping up with friends when your day job involves flitting through time and space), his detached logic gives him a vital edge when the world’s in danger. But when it comes to human relationships, he can be found wanting.

Rose (Billie Piper) is a shop-girl from the present day. From the moment they meet, the Doctor and Rose are soulmates. They understand and complement each other. As they travel together through time, encountering new adversaries, the Doctor shows her things beyond imagination. She starts out as an innocent, unfettered by worldly concerns. But she ends up an adventurer who, by the end of the series, can never go home again…

Adventures featured:-

‘Rose’ – When Rose Tyler meets a mysterious stranger called the Doctor, her life will never be the same again. Soon, she realises that her mum, her boyfriend and the whole of Planet Earth are in danger. The only hope for salvation lies inside a strange blue box…

‘The End Of The World’ – The Doctor takes Rose on her first voyage through time, to the year Five Billion. The Sun is about to expand, and swallow the Earth. But amongst the alien races gathering to watch on Platform One, a murderer is at work. Who is controlling the mysterious and deadly Spiders?

‘The Unquiet Dead’ – The Doctor takes Rose back through time to 1869. But in Victorian Cardiff, the dead are walking, and creatures made of gas are on the loose. The time-travellers team up with Charles Dickens to investigate Mr Sneed, the local undertaker. Can they halt the plans of the ethereal Gelth?

    I have this. All great episodes. Although, not liking the cover and The Unquiet Dead was just ok, I rate it 8/10.
