Doctor Who Series 8 Review #1: Deep Breath

Deep Breath by Steven Moaffat

Deep Breath is the first full appearance of the Twelfth Doctor and Series 8 (Season 34)

The new doctor managed to some how time travel through a dinosaur, how would  he be able to do that, because the TARDIS Does not take a room with it if it demilitarizes in it. The 12th Doctor is certainly different and the cloak work robots return is very good. Plus the surprise of the 11th Doctor contacting Clara through the the TARDIS's Telephone on Trenzalore. And the other surprise is the gatekeeper of the nephersphere which seems to be the back story of series 8.
