Dr Who Review, Part 10 - The Christopher Eccleston Era

The tenth episode in my ongoing series of reviews, with analysis, of the BBC science-fiction show, Doctor Who.

In this part, we consider how the fortieth anniversary was marked by the production of the first animated version of the long-lived programme, before the BBC finally got their act together and commissioned a fully-fledged revival that relaunched the show to great popular acclaim.
