purplecat: The Tardis against a sunset (or possibly sunrise) (Doctor Who)
I was very disappointed with this story first time around. I thought it had a potentially interesting set-up which was then squandered with a rather mundane resolution and a reset button. I enjoyed it more this time around, since I was going in with low expectations, but I still think it is a wasted opportunity. NLSS child (who it should be noted is not only no-longer-so-small but actually bigger-than-I-am so should possibly be renamed BTIA child) thought it was great. Her good opinion of this half season remains intact.

I still think this story marks the beginning of a down turn in quality for this half-season of Doctor Who and I still think there are much more interesting things you could do with the concept of being trapped inside the Tardis. However it works well enough, I suppose, on its own terms.
