The writing is magnificent, the performances are magnificent, the plot is magnificent, even the militaristic new theme music for the War Doctor is magnificent, if strongly reminiscent of the more martial versions of Babylon 5's theme. John Hurt makes a wonderful Doctor (even if he now blows his top whenever anybody uses the name), sly and insightful and wise and brave, his voice as expressive as Peter Capaldi's face. The supporting cast, too, is excellent. I'm still hunting for information but I have special praise for the actors who played the wonderful Rejoice, the Doctor's companion du jour (there are two actors, for the character is depicted as a young and hopeful and then an older and wearier woman). This story is exactly what we would want of a "lost" War Doctor episode: it's only giving us a glimpse of a small battle within the Time War, but addresses in that microcosm all of the issues of the larger arc. Don't miss this one, Whovians! aucune critique | ajouter une critique
1.1. The innocent. As the Daleks mass their time fleet for a final assault on Gallifrey, something ancient is waiting for them at Omega One. And a sacrifice must be made. Arch-manipulator and Time Lord strategist, Cardinal Ollistra receives shock news of the Doctor's death. Meanwhile, on the planet Keska, a parochial war has returned to plague a peaceful civilisation after decades of tranquillity. But how can such a war have any connection with the great Time War which, at any one moment in the whole of eternity, could threaten to tear the universe apart? If only the Doctor were still alive.
1.2. The thousand worlds. With the high-ranking Time Lord Seratrix behind enemy lines, the War Doctor finds himself assigned to a rescue mission. But any room for manoeuvre is severely restricted by an area of space known as the Null Zone. Times have changed on Keska, and a countdown to destruction is beginning. But who are the Taalyens and what is their part in the great and terrifying Dalek plan?
1.3. The heart of the battle. Trapped in a citadel swarming with Daleks, the Time Lord rescue force must find a way to overcome insurmountable odds. With the Daleks apparently planning to rule the Null Zone, perhaps their thirst for universal conquest and victory has been quenched ... The War Doctor doesn't believe so - but how can he prove it without destroying any chance of peace? As the countdown to the destruction of Keska proceeds, a deadly choice must be made ... A choice that will define this Doctor, and perhaps forever cast him in the role of 'monster'. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
