Review of 'The One Doctor (Doctor Who)' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Actually wanted to read this one after somebody hinted at a nod to Hitchhiker's Guide, but was personally more fond of the meta-commentary about the show itself through the Doctor's initial plight. The story itself is a nice piece of light entertainment and the humor works throughout the entire piece. The opening though, establishing the bond between the 6th Doctor (Colin Baker) and Melanie Bush (Bonnie Langford), was really nice to hear considering that the televised serial, Trials of a Time Lord (specifically Terror of the Vervoids and The Ultimate Foe), just drops her en media res.
