* Although ‘updated’ to include content from Series Four, the previously released Doctor’ Files are erratically updated. This is particularly troublesome because of the overlapping nature of the files themselves, making this volume a little unfriendly at times with its lack of progression and no particular structure to follow through. Most of the Series Four additions are in the final few pages, which is a shame as the Children of Time’s involvement seems to be added rather than incorporated in the main files under their specific headings.

* On its plus side it does make occasional reference to other adventures like [[Attack of the Graske (video game)|Attack of the Graske]] and some of the Doctor Who novels. [[the Master|The Master]] and [[Donna Noble|Donna]] material is a welcome addition.
