this was so mid it hurts first it was FULL of typos and grammatical errors (this somehow feels worse after seeing he’s a qualified teacher?) second it’s basically just someone recounting nuwho episodes. like i see what the idea was but the author could’ve done so much more with it in 85 pages than he did. just felt underwhelming, but it does have a really nice message

These people are not just companions of the Doctor, they are the mundane lives of extraordinary people. Each of these people, given the opportunity to go on incredible adventures, was allowed to show the incredible person they always were inside. The Doctor does not create interesting characters out of mundane ones, he finds people who are already amazing.
They are not just characters in a sci-fi show, they are the very real facets of our world. I know a lot of these people, and have myself been a few of them. They are full of potential and change, of histories and futures. They are me, they are you, they are people we know and see every day. This is how Doctor Who celebrates us - by showing off how amazing we are, already. Doctor Who presents people, flaws and all, and asks if we see ourselves in them.
Then, it shows how extraordinary those people really were all along, daring us to acknowledge that, if these people can be extraordinary, then maybe we can too.

Just brilliant! Just like the TARDIS so much bigger on the inside than it’s small stature suggests. So much to ponder on and definitely goes on my to re-read pile. Definitely a 5/5.

This is a beautiful and witty book that examines and celebrates a truly beloved show. It's a very quick read and a must for Doctor Who fans. It will make you want to rewatch the show, and you will see the Doctor and companions in a new light. (less)
