5.0 out of 5 stars Have you met Miss Jones?, 12 Jun 2007
By KAT "tatethegr8" (Kettering Northants) - See all my reviews
Doctor Who is back - with a new assistant! In this first episode entitled 'Smith and Jones' we meet the lucky lady who will be flying around space with the dashing Doctor.

Martha Jones is a trainee doctor herself, and is heading to what she expects will be a normal day at work - until she meets a mysterious patient going by the name of Mr.Smith - who has 2 hearts!!!. As if this wasn't weird enough, Martha's problems are soon doubled when she finds herself and the entire hospital transported on to the moon! She soon discovers that there is more to plain old Mr.Smith than she first thought as he reveals he is a man simply known as 'The Doctor'. Although Martha is not convinced by his identity can the two work together to find a way out of the situation before the entire hospital suffolcates? And why have a mysterious Jadoon Platoon suddenly arrived on the Moon - and more to the point what - or who - are they looking for?

The Shakespeare Code: The Doctor has promised Martha one trip in time and she finds herself transported to London in 1599 where The Bard himself William Shakespeare has just finished penning his new play - a sequal entitled Loves Labours Won! However, when strange things begin to happen, The Doc suspects Witchcraft, but why do the Carrianights need the mind of Shakespeare to harness their power? And why have they hijacked Loves Labours Won? What will become of Shakespeare's missing Masterpiece?. The Doctor must unravell the Carrianights wicked plot to release the spirits of the former witches banished in time and stop them before they purge the entire earth - but can the legendary genius Shakespeare find the right words to banish them for eternity?

Gridlock: The Doctor gives Martha another trip, this time in the Future, in the year 20,000000 New Earth where he once took Rose. But it is very very different this time! When Martha is Car-Jacked the Doctor panics but things are about to get a lot more spooky when he comes across an old ally on the verge of death. Will the Doctor learn the Face of Boe's secret once and for all? And what are his four final that will have such a huge impact will they have on the Doctors life forever and force him to confront his demons once and for all?

All in all a great start to the new series with three cracking episodes. Martha proves herself to be a great replacement for Rose and very different in Character. Also we see a more vulnerable side to the Doctor when he opens up about his past. Brilliant acting from David Tennant and new-bie Freema Ageman as Martha Jones!

5.0 out of 5 stars A dream start for David, and Freema, 20 Jun 2007
By Mr. Jack Gray "jackmaster" (Glasgow) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The third series picks up the momentum from series two quite nicely, and the first three cracking epsodes, : "Smith And Jones", "The Shakespeare Code", and "Gridlock".

"Smith And Jones", introduces us to the Judoon, hulking rhino-like policemen who have a very unorthodox way of pursuing non-humans like the Doctor. They mark humans with an X mark on their hand, and with a humourous twist anyone who hits them from behind is executed. Their target is Annie Reid as a Plasmavour who does away with poor Roy Marsden very easily, and her two leather-cladded henchmen with motorbike courier gear.

"The Shakespeare Code", is in my opinion the best episode of Doctor Who so far this series. The great bard is superbly brought to life by Dean Lennox Kelly, (Kev in, "Shameless") with a great deal of humour, and detail to the period. Three witches want Shakespeare to write, "Loves Labours Won", the lost masterpiece which has an element of truth in real life. It didn't exist. The play opens a gateway for the witches so their sisters can come through, and terrorise Elizabethan England. The final scene of the episode shows Queen Elizabeth I appearing, and recognizing the Doctor she shouts, "Off with his head!!!". An excellent script from Gareth Roberts, and superbly directed by Charles Palmer.

"Gridlock", is what the third series is all about. The words from The Face Of Boe, played by Struan Rodger, "You Are Not Alone" = YANA, played by Sir Derek Jacobi in episode 11, "Utopia", neatly sets the tone for this episode, and a marvellous performance from Ardal O'Hanlon as Thomas Kincaid Brannigan.

All in all. A great start for Freema Ageyman, and our David.

5.0 out of 5 stars Have you met Miss Jones?, 15 April 2007
By Mrs. Margaret A. Beagon (Bangor, Co. Down United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Doctor Who's back with the same old Doctor and a brand new companion, Martha Jones. The first three episodes of the third series don't disappoint, neither does Martha.

Smith And Jones is possibly the best series opener of Doctor Who ever. Not only does it introduce Martha Jones (Freema Agyeman), but it also has incredible special effects and the Judoon are so cool.

The Shakespeare Code is another delight from the past as the Doctor (David Tennant) meets a genius that is almost clever as him. Also look out for the scary Carrionites.

Gridlock is my favourite episode on the volume, because the special effects are fab, there's the sad death of the Face Of Boe and the return of the Macra after 40 years away from the series. And also I love episodes set in the future.

So, go out and buy this DVD on 21 May 2007 and keep watching Series 3 of Doctor Who.

To finish off, here is a list of release dates for the remaining volumes:

Volume 2 (Daleks In Manhattan, Evolution Of The Daleks, The Lazarus Experiment, 42): 25 June 2007

Volume 3 (Human Nature, The Family Of Blood, Blink): 23 July 2007

Volume 4 (Utopia, The Sound Of Drums, Last Of The Time Lords): 20 August 2007
