Doctor Who Series 8 - Episode One - A Deep Breath. Review

The first episode for Peter Capaldi to feature as the Doctor. Peter's Scottish accent may take time getting used to, but my first impression is that Peter will play the role of the Doctor well. Similar to past re-generations, the Doctor struggles to get used to his new body. This episode was always going to be more of an introduction to Peter Calpaldi's Doctor almost comparable with David Tennant's first episode as the Doctor.

Like every episode of Doctor Who, random things happen. Deep Breath has everything from a dinosaur to killer cyborgs. Moreover, this episode deals with the a change in dynamic of the relationship between Clara and the Doctor. The cheery energetic Doctor of Matt Smith is very much gone, to replaced by a Doctor who is eccentric but yet not as flamboyant as before. I have done my best to keep this review spoiler free for those yet to watch this episode. I intend to post short reviews on every episode of this series of Doctor Who, so stayed tuned for more next week.
