The first time I saw this it flew by, sometimes on a rewatch episodes are not as good as you remember...

The Doctor and Ruby arrive on a war torn planet, hearing cries the Doctor runs to help, and find himself standing on a landmine. I will admit the Steven Moffat, who wote this story is a writer that I've always enjoyed and rarely does stuff that I don't. In fact I can't think of anything off hand and this is ticks all the boxes.

With the Doctor spending almost the entire time stuck in one place you would think that it would get a little boring but it manages to stay entertaining. Every few minutes another event ramps up the tension.A little girl looking for he Dad, Soliders, getting shot, each complication drawing the detonation the the mine ever closer.

Long time fans will remember the Anglican Marines from a few years ago, so its nice touch to make use of them here.

As with Moffat's previous work there are a one or two little twists heer and there.

So the Doctor cries tears, not for the first time this Doctor's run and I'm finding it a little overdone already.

After a not so great start to the series this is really rather good.
