173. (2.2) Tooth and Claw

Who's afraid of the big bad wolf? Literally! Besides an actual werewolf, there are ninja monks, Torchwood castle, Scottish Mounties and Queen Victoria. The celebrity historical has now become an annual event with famous actors playing famous historical figures. It's a lovely new tradition. This story picks up the Torchwood thread from the Christmas Invasion and propels it forward quite a bit. The story also shows the amount of fun and enjoyment the 10th Doctor and Rose has traveling together. Their bet to get Queen Victoria to say "I am not amused" is quite amusing. Their knighthood and exile from the UK at the conclusion is a bit confusing but the Queen's final decree that the Torchwood Institute's charter is to fight the Doctor is an ironic twist.
