“My arms are too long…”

The Doctor and Donna land in a strange ship on the very edge of the universe, ending up with no TARDIS, no sonic screwdriver and no way out.

Before the TARDIS takes them to the edge of creation, The Doctor and Donna crash-land in 1666. They meet a certain polymath with a fondness for apples – Isaac Newton – and somehow manage to make their mark on the laws of physics. What did fans think of the episode’s introduction?
