      It was a dodgy plot but mildly watchable.

      Also, I thought they were going to omit the beheading scene but they didn't.

        Ridiculous but fun.
        Yep. The "light" episode before the "make the kids piss themselves with fear" episode. Definite Dr Who feel to it.

        I think Capaldi is probably going to turn out to be ok, but there is something that's not quite working. Writing or direction, I'm not sure.

          Excellent episode. Super scary, even I checked under the bed, and a lovely close out for a young doctor.

          I've banned the kids from watching this one. If Blink and Are you my mummy gave them nightmares, a story about how there is always someone under the bed, or that clanging of the pipes or creaks in the house means there is somebody there is not a very good idea to let a 5 and 8 year old watch it.

            Just watched it without spoilers.

            Scary but a great ending.

              One of the best episodes ever.

              Shows that the biggest monsters of all, can be deep within our own imagination.

                I'm glad I don't sleep alone. Super-creepy.

                I can see what the ending was trying to achieve, but the message of fear being your constant companion being presented as a good thing was a bit weird.

                  Spoil sport.

                  I do not watch it but went to pub...

                  Thought it must have been a good one when I tried to go to bed and found the kids in bed with the missus and me left having to sleep in one of the little one's beds...

                    I admit that I watched this still being exhausted after driving back from the Czech Republic after a medieval show.

                    Could someone please walk me through the plot?!?!?!?

                      Not quite on a par with last week's, but not a bad effort.
                      Not a bad episode. Couple of characters for later.

                      Also watched the 50th Again earlier. The 'Who knows. Who Knows?' bit at the end still makes me choke.
