Talk:Doctor Who Adventures/Area 51

Review: Series 4 Has Returned:
With every season there is a chance that the opening episode will not be able to live up to the past few episodes. But this episode was an exception with its brilliance in character development. A highly entertaining episode filled with twists and turns that were unexpected.

Quillian was an awesome addition and I cannot wait to see what his search of the Doctor will happen, another small arc, how many arcs does DWA now have? In terms of plot it was highly amusing with spaceship plot being interesting and the area 51's inclusion with several different alien guest stars veing on show was brilliant. I cannot remember their names but the one with the odd speech was great to see especially as it shows a difference in aliens.One of them was less interesting but then there was Impa, a character who seems very similar to the Time Dalek, coincidence? Probably not.

The pacing of the plot ensured that the episode gave more time to the more shocking elements of the episode especially at the beginning were very well handled. Now onto my favourite bits.

Favourite character: The Doctor

Perhaps for the first time in a while the Doctor was the best character. His personal guilt being driven away was brilliant and his constant doom approach and his need to be reassured was great to see.

Favourite scene: Would You Blame Me

Now I cannot go into too much details as that would unleash a massive spoiler. The scene with the Doctor and being able to move on was a particular highlight for me. The scene moves on the character in a highly interesting way and perhaps he can embrace what he has now.

Funniest Line: The Same Colour

Just because we are the same colour does not mean we are the same species and then the "yea" part was a particular highlight. Absolutely hilarious with the turn in the conversation showing MC's highly amusing humour being ever present.

In Conclusion:

An episode that had to happen for the Doctor's character and was highly entertaining with some fantastic side characters although a minor criticism was that some did not get a satisfying amount of time to develop. The future arcs this set up add to the highly exciting list. S6 has huge promise with this character filled episode, I hope that the rest of the season can continue with characterisation being the main part but with a solid plot much like this one had. The link to a certain S4 episode that becomes clear in a long projector message was brilliant to see, more linking off the episodes. Another brilliantly paced, brilliantly characterised and fantastic plot episode that has become commonplace for DWA.
