Episode: Tooth and Claw
Story Number: 169

Screenwriter: Russell T Davies
Director: Euros Lyn
Thoughts: Scotland, 1879. The Doctor and Rose join the retinue of Queen Victoria (Pauline Collins) as she stops at the Torchwood Estate of Sir Robert MacLeish (Derek Riddell) to rest for the night. Naturally, they arrive at a time when the estate has been taken over by rogue monks who want to have a werewolf bite the queen. And naturally, the werewolf is actually an alien. Fortunately, Prince Albert and Sir Robert’s father left behind the tools that could save the Queen and the nation. It’s an odd episode with some good action and humor, but also some tonal inconsistencies.
