Review
This is an odd little serial, considering the things Doctor Who has done. (Such as Books coming to life, a rainbow coated suit, robotic yeti and more...) It has a weird concept, with a ridiculous villain of candy (Who really needed more on screen time, but sadly does not) that spawned a lawsuit from a candy maker. Anyway, the acting is decent, but McCoy stands out of all of them, while Helen A's only stand out due to the nonsubtlety of it all. It's a little silly and all, with The Doctor on go karts, and a pink TARDIS, yet it is all taken in stride, and it is a little enjoyable despite the odd storyline and even odder undertones (That turn to overtones). This serves as an example of the flip-flopping the McCoy Era did in the unfortunately short 3 years.
Overall, I give it a rating of 3 out of 5 stars.
