Not my definition of greatest, February 27, 2001
This review is from: Dr. Who: The Greatest Show in the Galaxy (Doctor Who Library) (Paperback)
The TARDIS is traversing the vortex when its defences are penetrated by an advertising satellite. Inviting whoever receives is to visit the Psychic Circus, they decide to do so. But they aren't the only ones - a wide number of odd characters are on their way. But the Psychic Circus has a dark secret, one from which some of the circus performers are keen to escape...
One of the stories of the Seventh Doctor normally labelled "oddball", this story takes what might otherwise be a normal one and gives it an odd spin. Part of this odd spin are the characters who are, depending on your views, either archetypal or clichéd.
For my money, the story is just that much too shallow to be enjoyable.
