The Doctor, armed with three companions travels back in time, to meet a famous historical figure, sound familiar? It's been a long time since the show returned to its original roots, but that it did.
Despite the powerful storyline, this story battles one monster in particular, racism, racism from the past and present. Dialogue appears in this episode that I've not heard on the show before, this was a very very grown up episode.
The writing was fantastic, great production values, it looked wonderfully authentic, those costumes were superb. Vinette Robinson was superb as Rosa, a quality performance.
Very different on so many levels, but hopefully it will encourage kids to Google Rosa Parks, and learn more about her.
A blast from the past 8/10
