Editorial Review:

Amazon.co.uk Review:
This second batch of episodes from David Tennant’s maiden run as the title character finds Doctor Who building up an impressive head of steam. There’s a trip back in time to see Queen Victoria, a reunion with an old friend and some deadly clockwork nemeses to contend with as the series really bursts into life.

Tooth & Claw is first up, set back in 1897 Scotland, as the Doctor and Rose must contend with a deadly werewolf, mysterious monks and the suspicions of Queen Victoria. It’s not the strongest of the series, but even so, this is Doctor Who on fine form and very sure footing.

School Reunion is superb, though. It brings back two of the Doctor’s previous companions, Sarah-Jane and K-9, and asks some intriguing questions of what happens to his assistants once he leaves them behind. That it also ties in an intriguing story of sinister goings on at an innocent looking school only adds to the achievement. The final episode, The Girl In The Fireplace, is also excellent. This is a staggeringly successful mixture of love story, unnerving baddies and quality science fiction. It’s the episode to date where Tennant has looked surest with the role, and it’s a highlight of an already highly impressive series.

So, to summarise, a DVD featuring one good and two superb episodes, with the promise of plenty more tasty episodes later in the series. Can’t be bad.--Simon Brew

- the GREATEST episodes of series 2
having found the christmas special and New Earth reasonably enjoyable,i decided that series 1 couldn't be beaten...i was totally wrong...David Tennant is the greatest doctor of them all,and he just kept improving throughout this series.
these are without a doubt the greatest episodes in series 2,and i even prefer these to the finale(Doomsday).

Tooth & Claw-a genuinly rewarding experience,Russel T.Davies has written a mini-horror film,and unlike the movies this werewolf is very scary and artistic to look at...i personally feel that this is the best episode he wrote of series 2 as it combines the humour,stunts and scares needed in an episode of Doctor Who,and Rose isn't all lovy dovy with the Doc in this episode(thank god!!!)but ...

- series 2 volume 2
the first eisode tooth and claw was a brilliant episode with one of the most exiting pre title scenes of the series. the warewolf is very realistic and the whole epiosde is scary. 8.5/10.

school reunion is probally the reason people buy this disk. all though the krillitains aren't the best monsters there sstill entertaining anhony head is creepy. amazing episode with k9 and sarah jane. 9.5/10.

the girl in the fireplace is a very emotianal episode . very enjoyable.

10/10.

highly recomended.

- "The Girl in the Fireplace"
David Tennant does a great job of playing Doctor Who, and of the three episodes on this disc, it's 'The Girl in the Fireplace' episode that stands out as a classic, and it's worth getting it for this episode alone. Take an original idea, add a spaceship with some unique 'windows', some clockwork.. (wait and see) and set it in 18th century France, and you have a recipe for an excellent Doctor Who. The other episodes, Tooth & Claw and School Reunion are also very good and make this three episode set highly recommended for fans of the series.

Rating:

- Episodes 2-4
First on this disc we have "Tooth And Claw", a brilliant episode with a frankly haunting transformation sequence, also quite funny. Second is "School Reunion", Sarah Jane Smith's back! Good acting from Anthony Head and a smashing storyline. And finally "The Girl In The Fireplace", a masterpiece, the Doctor finds a time portal and falls in love with the girl on the other end, bless! All in all, a good selection of Doctor Who.

Rating:

- Sarah's Back!
Sarah-Jane Smith is back! Only the best Doctor Who assistant ever. If there are any nippers reading this ask yer dads!
