Goodbye to 12 - Doctor Who - Listen Review

We celebrate the Peter Capaldi era by revisiting the 12th Doctor's adventures as we count down the days to his last adventure.

Doctor Who:
Listen
By Steven Moffat

“What’s that in the mirror, and the corner of your eye? What’s the footstep following, but never passing by?”

We all have had nightmares.  Waking up in the middle of the night in a fright and being scared for no apparent reason as our subconscious has a little fun at our own expense.  We have all been there. But what is the cause?  Is it an invisible creature under the bed waiting to get us? Those of us with kids have to deal with the inevitable nightmare in the middle of the night that wakes us in a startled state.  But what happens when a Time Lord has a nightmare?  What happens when he thinks he is not alone?  We found out after watching “Listen” or did we.

After a few episodes with some lighter hearted moments, the trailer for Listen got a lot of people excited for a scarier and more sinister episode. so far series 8 seems to have divided fans, a few finding it hard to take to a new actor playing the lead role, and complaining about the writing, and the rest enjoying the ride. There has been a lot of talk across the social networks of people debating if we were going to see some familiar foes in this episode, and what we could expect to see from Danny Pink......
