September 16, 2014 0 Comments

TTV-Logo-1400-150x150“I think everybody at some point in their lives has the exact, same nightmare. You wake up, or you think you do, and there’s someone in the dark, someone close, or you think there might be. So you sit up, turn on the light, and the room looks different at night. It ticks and creaks and breathes. And you tell yourself there’s nobody there, nobody watching, nobody listening. Nobody there at all … and you very nearly believe it. You really, really try. And then…”

In this week’s show, we look at what might just be Steven Moffat’s masterpiece in Doctor Who storytelling, Listen.

We give our impressions on this ground breaking and legend changing episode.
