In the Forest of the Night

This story was alright. It's not the best of series 8 in fact I'd call it the worst. It's more of a political global warming story about how cutting down trees is bad. It's really not for me but there was some cool scenes in it. One that comes to mind is the scene with the Wolves & the tiger I thought that scene was cool. It was nice to have Danny in this as his time is nearly up. Having child actors be at the heart of an episode is a risky move and this time it didn't pay off except with Mave because she was genuinely good. We see more of missy which is cool because she gets the spotlight in the next 2 episodes. Overall an ok story about global warming and some cool scenes. 6/10
