As usual there is something extra about the 8th Doctor plays. Likely because McGann's Doctor has a majority of his life told through the radio, he seems especially well fit to any story he is given. This one, the fourth in the "Dalek Empire" storyline, pushes the bounds of believability for the time travel technology involved (clocks and mirrors becoming stargate portals), but keeps the tension and doesn't collapse under its paradox weight. The fact that the time travel plot to control Earth is linked to Shakespeare seems like a weak connection at first, but it comes full circle in the end. Even if the solution doesn't hide itself very well.
