DVD Times has posted a review of the newly released DVD including full details of extras (only a Phillip Pullman interview). However, the review is rather scathing of the performances of Billie Piper and Julian Rhind-Tutt, and there is no mention really of JJ. Useful site if you want to know DVD details.    

"Sally, Frederick, Jim (the impressive Matt Smith) and even McKinnon were all blessed with divine pulchritude, while even those in the autumn of their lives had a dashing, arresting charisma about them such as Webster and Nellie."

A couple of reviews have appeared today from last night's show. The Times liked it although there was a strange Spice Girls comparison...

"The detective team, for instance, had something of a Private Eye Spice Girls about them – there was the old one (John Standing), the posh one (J. J. Field), the rough one (Matt Smith), and the funny-looking one with the prehensile lips (Piper). Their adventures were preposterous and culminated in the destruction of a doomsday weapon – the highly improbable “steam gun”. And yet despite the Boys Own idiocy and the obvious budgetary limitations (very few big money set-pieces) The Shadowhad a moody charm, and a belief in narrative chicanery that was compelling."
