DVD Description
The truth about River Song is out and the time has come for the Doctor to face his greatest demons. Venturing across centuries and galaxies, the Doctor, Amy and Rory will encounter the greatest war criminal in all of history - and Hitler. Together, they'll discover there's no scarier place in the universe than a child's bedroom and a visit to an alien quarantine facility will reveal to Rory a very different side to his wife.
In a hotel where walls move, corridors twist and rooms vanish, death lies waiting. But the Doctor's time has yet to come. He has one last stop to make on his final journey - an old friend needs his help and an old foe must be defeated. But time catches up with us all and the Doctor can delay no more.
By the shores of Lake Silencio, in Utah, all of time and space hang in the balance. And a NASA astronaut is waiting.

Monster Files: The Antibodies & The Cybermats

As the Matt Smith and Steven Moffat era of Doctor Who continues into it's sixth series, the second half continues where the first ended with the engaging storyline of River Song/Melody Pond. Whilst the episodes contained within this second half of the series may be slightly weaker than the first, the acting and story lines are still enjoyable and fun to watch. With his assistants Amy Pond (Karen Gillan) and Rory Williams (Arthur Darvill) along for the ride the episodes have a great emphasis on the dark and complex, which may seem slightly inappropriate for younger viewers. Matt Smith however is the man in question and its his electric performances as the Doctor that continues to push the series forward and make viewers come back for more. For hardcore fans of the series this will ultimately be a must have purchase, but with a complete edition box-set of the entire series soon to be released shortly before Christmas, the wait may just be bearable.

Love dr who so to have it in bluray just makes my day, mnot the best series of the 6 so far but Matt Smith is starting to grow on me
The last 6 episodes of Series 6 attract a lot of maligning for...well, not all that sure, really. This last run of episodes is every bit as audacious, thought-provoking and heartfelt as Doctor Who has ever been. Matt Smith is a complete wonder throughout all of them, wielding total authority and massive screen presence that threatens to eclipse all else - these episodes in particular provide some of his greatest moments, as his Doctor slowly grinds down towards a seemingly inevitable tragedy and in the process re-evaluates certain aspects of his existence (no spoilers!).
The lightning-fast tongue-in-cheek Let's Kill Hitler places him in a challenging face-off between an amoral hellraiser he knows is innocent, and righteous upholders of justice he knows are mistaken. Night Terrors sees him dip into some more of his age-old wisdom to aid a paranoid parent and his even more paranoid son (I found the denouement a tad schmaltzy but nice all the same). The unforgettable The Girl Who Waited finds time to put the Doctor beneath the microscope with gut-wrenching intensity, even in an episode seemingly dedicated to the Ponds' everlasting bond.
The God Complex is a cruel, dramatic and intelligent tale of faith and fear with a truly stirring surprise conclusion, boasting some impressive experimental direction. Closing Time offers a welcome more light-hearted but still valid perspective on (and overdue counterpoint to) the Doctor's worsening ethical conflicts. And that finale...in 45 minutes we're bombarded with striking setpiece after striking setpiece, all infused with Matt Smith's brilliance, and tied into a surprisingly straightforward [for Moffat] story that brings the Doctor at last to his wits' end with the tragic truth of River Song - and his own burgeoning secrets.
The twisting mystery elements and Hollywood sheen of Part One might be absent, but the sheer strength of the Eleventh Doctor and his character journey lets these episodes shine. (And getting them in HD was totally worth it. My eyes were glued to the screen.)
