I'm not a Shakespeare expert or even a fan really, but I love this episode so I'm glad to see that you did. I feel like it's one that's a bit underappreciated. I haven't seen Dean Lennox Kelly and anything else. He's great here radiating charisma. I appreciate how they write the character as well. He's able to see through the psychic paper, realizing he's in mourning & figuring out who Martha/The Doctor are by the end. The lead witch is played by Christina Cole. She starred in a British show Hex a show about a girl in school dealing with fallen angels, ghosts & other stuff. It definitely had some Buffy vibes. Also one of those shows that feels like it's made for me but is ultimately a snooze. Martha does a good job rolling with the punches on her first proper adventure. There is noticeable friction though as The Doctor is treating her as a bit of an afterthought along for the ride instead of a "real companion" like Rose. Martha once again shows that she's clever & can be counted on. There's a lot of the trope of saying a famous saying to the person who said it. I can understand how some people might find that grating. I enjoy it a lot, although here, especially since there's so much that you can do with a character like Shakespeare.

This episode is pure camp. And I am here for it.
