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

Alex Price... offers a warm and engaging link that knits the audiobook together quite seamlessly... Even if you own the complete series 5 on DVD, this acts as a great accompaniment - and one that enables the listener to experience those 13 episodes in a brand new, and exciting way
