Doctor Who Series 8 Reviews #4: Listen

Listen by Steven Moaffat

Doctor Who Review #1: Deep Breath
Doctor Who Review #2: Into the Dalek
Doctor Who Review #3: Robots of Sherwood

Listen was the 4th Episode of Series 8 and the 2nd Appearance of Danny Pink. It featured the one and only appearance of the 71st Companion Orson Pink. The story makes a reappearance of Gallifrey and the 1st Doctor and the story features no real monster.

The Story was a wonderful story. The idea of something that will make Children scared comes again from Steven Moaffat, who has done Gas Masks Zombies, Clock Work Robots, Weeping Angles and the Vastra Nerada. The Story was a horror story with a nice back ground story with Clara and Danny Pink.
