Well, those nice people at the BBC Shop have sent me some more DVDs to review, and as always, I’m giving away the ones I don’t want. First up, it’s The Doctor, The Widow and The Wardrobe, which I reviewed briefly a while back:

Quite nice, but nothing too remarkable. Some nods to continuity (Androzani Major) and a few tears were elicited towards the end, but this was just a bit of Christmas fun and loveliness really.

If you’d like a proper review, Stuart has a good one.

Anyway, the DVD contains not only the whole episode but also two hours of bonus features, including a prequel and three ‘The Best of Doctor Who‘ features. I haven’t watched them. They might be good. Okay, I have watched the prequel because it’s on YouTube and here:

But I don’t want the DVD. However, if you want it, now’s your chance to enter the first TMINE competition of the year!

To enter, all you have to do is leave a comment below or email me! Usual competition rules apply and you have to live in the UK. Closing date is Sunday 19th February 2012 at 11.59pm.
