Reviews

  • Alex Price's narration... boldly builds up but never becomes intrusive to the soundtrack and action... Containing some nice moments of comedy it stops this release from just being a straight forward compendium of the season's greatest scenes. It also allows Murray Gold's score to be heard and appreciated more fully
