Doctor Who 'Listen' Episode Review (no spoilers)

What's up Nerdlings!

Episode four has probably been the most creepy episode of series eight, but not the scariest Steven Moffat has ever written, and definitely not my favourite.
Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the episode, but some aspects of it were, to me, rather confusing at times, and I didn't fully understand how they went into the Doctor's past. It was all just too quick for me to fully grasp.
Nevertheless, the episode was still very good, the beginning was very tense, and gripping, and I immediately thought the monster was going to be the Silence until we saw the word LISTEN scrawled across the Doctor's chalkboard.
I found this episode to be very hooking. As soon as it started I was on the edge of my chair, desperate to find out what the monster was. The scene under the bed was terrifying, and the figure sitting on the bed with the quilt over it's head was scary, throughout that whole scene I just wanted to know what the monster was beneath.
I also really enjoyed how Clara and the Doctor both acted in this episode. Clara was very feisty, and reminded me very much of a former companion known as Donna Noble. She was very motherly when around Rupert, and I loved the scene when she placed the soldier figurines underneath his bed to guard him.
This episode also showed a different side to the Doctor's personality, and how unreliable, and cold he can be. And it really excited me. We haven't seen a dark side to the Doctor in a while, and I'm really electrified for him to be returning. And for the next episode of Doctor Who, which will be airing next Saturday at 7:30pm on the BBC. Don't miss it!

Doctor Who Tag

What's up Nerdlings?

Today I'm going to be doing the Doctor Who Tag. I looked up the questions from this, and found lots of different versions, so I've taken questions from each of the tags, and mashed them together to make my very on Doctor Who Tag, as well as adding my on. Let's get started shall we?

1. When did you first become a fan of Doctor Who?
I first started watching the show when it was revamped in 2005.

2. New, Classic or both?
Honestly, I'll have to go with the new series' of Doctor Who. I've watched, and own the Classic episodes of the show, but I haven't seen enough to class my self as a Classic Girl.

3. Favourite Doctor?
David Tennant has to be my favourite Doctor, but Christopher Eccleston is a close second.

4. Favourite Companion?
Sarah-Jane Smith is the Queen of Doctor Who companions, and always will be, but I also really liked Rose Tyler and Donna Noble.

5. Favourite non-travelling companion?
Easily Wilfred Mott, imagine having a Gramps like him.

6. Favourite Quote?
I have so many, but if I had to choose one it'd probably be "One day I shall come back. Yes, I shall come back. Until then, there must be no regrets, no tears, no anxieties. Just go on forward in your beliefs, and prove to me I am not mistaken in mine."

7. Favourite episode?
It's always been The Girl in the Fireplace, but I also like Doomsday, The Angels Taken Manhattan, and Silence in the Library. Midnight was good as well.

8. Favourite monster?
Obviously I'm going to say the Daleks, but I also really love the Clockwork Men, and the Weeping Angels.

9. Least favourite Doctor?
I can't choose my least favourite doctor, that's not fair. If I had to choose I've probably go with John Hurt, or Paul McGann as they did the least episodes. But I still loved them both. You can't make me choose, this quiz is Satanic.

10. Least favourite Companion
Martha Jones. She was the worst companion of the revamped series, and was basically a rebound for the Doctor, after Rose. Martha was boring, and had no back-bone. Definitely the worst in every single way.

11. Least favourite Episode?
The Doctor's Daughter had a pretty weak plot with nothing we haven't already seen on the show. I didn't enjoy Love & Monsters either, the reason why you should never run contests to allow children to create monsters for Doctor Who.

12. Least favourite Monster?
The Slitheen and the Abzorbaloff, they're the worst monsters I've ever seen on Doctor Who.

13. The most heart warming moment, that makes you cry the most?
Either the ending of The Angels Take Manhattan or the scene on Badwolf Bay in Doomsday where the Doctor and Rose Tyler have on of their last conversations.

14. If you met the Doctor, would you go with him?
Without a second thought.

15. If you did go with him, which companion would you be most like?

I think I'd be like Clara Oswald, I'd be smart, and curious, but wouldn't be afraid to slap the Doctor across the face when he was being an idiot.

Well, that's it for the Doctor Who Tag. I hoped you enjoyed the mash up of questions, and remember to follow us on Google+, keep checking out our site for more nerdy content, and leave suggestions in the comments below on what you'd like us to do next time.
