Ricky Church reviews the tenth episode of Star Wars: The Clone Wars, ‘The Phantom Apprentice’… Any fear that the Siege of Mandalore would not live up to its potential should be put aside as ‘The Phantom Apprentice’ is arguably the finest half hour of Star Wars: The Clone Wars the series has put out.
