'Dr. Who' is back, and back with a bang! 'The Star Beast' sees the welcome return of one of the greatest ever Doctors, the brilliant David Tennant, and its as if he's never been away. From the moment he stepped out of the TARDIS, he effortlessly became that that character again. Catherine Tate also returned as the marvellous 'Donna Noble', now married and with a daughter called 'Rose' ( Yasmin Finney ). The plot concerns a cute alien called a Meep ( voiced by Miriam Margolyes ) who claims he is being pursued by Wrarth warriors because of his expensive fur. Some fools have claimed this story is a rip-off of 'E. T' but it cannot be as it is based on a comic-strip published by Marvel UK back in 1980 ( two years before E. T. was made ). Thanks to a new co-production deal with Disney, this looks bigger and better than any Dr. Who since 'The End Of Time' back in 2009. I love the new-look TARDIS! Its white and with lots of ramps for David to run around on.
Dr. Who is still struggling to recover from the disastrous Steven Moffat tenure, but if this episode is anything to go by, the future looks promising. I'm sure Ncuti Gatwa will be a worthy successor to David. Never mind what the naysayers think!
