Amazon.co.uk Review

The return of The Master has been one of the many recent triumphs of Doctor Who. And with this, the final single DVD release of season three of the show, the three concluding episodes deliver John Simm’s majestic take on one of the Doctor’s deadliest and oldest enemies.

These three episodes also see Torchwood’s Captain Jack Harkness rejoining the Tardis, and along with the Doctor and Martha, there’s a mighty battle to be fought.

It all starts with "Utopia", one of the very finest episodes of Doctor Who’s third season. This is a clever, slow-burning tale, with Derek Jacobi guest-starring, and it features a final ten minutes so good it’s enough to make Who fans weep. Things continue with some style in "The Sound Of Drums", where The Master really comes into his own, replete with a devastating cliffhanger to set up the season finale. And ironically, it’s that finale, "The Last Of The Time Lords", that’s the weakest of the three here, a slightly muddled--but still very enjoyable--wrapping up of a very strong series.

The skill of these three episodes is how cleanly they interweave with the subtle building blocks that have been put in place for them over the duration of Doctor Who’s run. And with an ending the bodes well for the 2007 Christmas special too, this DVD is further proof of just what strong shape Doctor Who is in. Cracking stuff. --Jon Foster



Synopsis

Fourth volume of the third series finds the Doctor and his able assistant Martha Jones battling against the dastardly Master. Includes 'Utopia', 'Sound Of Drums' and 'Last Of The Timelords'.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mind blowing and spine tingling, 27 Jul 2007
By Charles "mrfreedom" (England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)      
The epitome of all that Russell T Davies has achieved in his time on the show, this DVD deserves a place in your collection. The three episodes are all stunning in different ways. They're fast, funny (in places), moving, look spectacular and contain several brilliant performances, particularly from David Tennant and John Simm. They achieve a real sense of drama that matters and the cliffhangers succeed in putting the Doctor in situations where you think 'How can he POSSIBLY get out of this one?!'
One reviewer on this page says: 'It's hardly The Daemons'. No, it's not. It's a thousand times better than that Jon Pertwee story in every conceivable way: plot, dialogue, acting, special effects, just general FEEL, everything. Celebrate the apex of this wonderful TV series.

5.0 out of 5 stars Oh dear... Dad's gone mental again..., 21 Sep 2007
By Mark Grindell "Mark Grindell" (Shipley,West Yorkshire) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)      
Oh yes. OH PLEASE!

Do it again. Thats right... just... above the left shoulder.

That's it.

AAAGGGHHH!

I have to say that I enjoyed the "Sound of drums" episode so much that at the end of it I needed to locate a box of tissues and take a run around the block. I just cannot apologise enough for such ridiculous behavior, except to say that now there are several people on the list to whom I would gladly fall at the feet of, send my underwear to and pay undying hommage to - and John Simm has now entered that charmed circle. His performance as the master is so stupifyingly brilliant that I feel - reborn - just by watching it!

But why? The bloke is off his face! He's MAD! He's EVIL!

So why do I desperately want to be like him?

This is perhaps the genius of the writing. I couldn't come up with this if you packed me into a 4 by 4 closet with unlimited pizza and a typewriter and the occasional conjugal visit. It simply would not happen. I know my limitations all too well, but in fact RT Davis has got my number and is simply rubbing this in my face now.

I realized that this whole season was remarkable from the beginning. I hadn't really enjoyed the Cybermen from the last series taking over London, but cleverly, it only seemed like TV after the usual time line re-embedding, but this season was wonderful. Space Rhinos. Shakespeare! The old Rugged cross (which had me quite literally sobbing for joy), stone statues, big crab monsters, cat women, public school boys, hair dying machines, giant cockroaches, gas attacks on the British cabinet, the sky splitting asunder to Voodoo Child, and... did I mention the Rhinos?

This series has hit highs that I could not have possibly anticipated, Martha Jones hits that spot every time, and John Simm is mad in only a way that I can fantasise about.

Because I'm really quite sensible. Honestly.

Really.

I promise....

5.0 out of 5 stars Great three episodes!!, 4 Sep 2007
By Mr. C. J. Deacon - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
These episodes are brilliant, the first one "Utopia", which has the return of Captain Jack and the Master, is when the Doctor travells to the end of the universe. This is a great episode with a great cliffhanger.(9/10)
The Second episode "Sound of the Drums" is a follow on to "Utopia" but is set in London. We found out that the Master is Prime Minister of Great Britain. This is a great episodes, it's funny and a good story.(10/10)
The third and final episode of the series named "Last of the Timelords" is a great, exciting, thrilling episode. The Master has fully taken control in this episode, although it doesn't go to plan.(10/10)
I strongly recommend you buy this.(Overall:10/10)
