New Who Review #52

Midnight

This episode was absolutely amazing. This is in the top 10 episodes of the entire show. It's a really good psychological horror episode that follows a bunch of people on a space truck tour. And when the monster strikes they turn on each other so quickly and this is a scarily perfectly accurate depiction of what humans are like in real life. I bet if you was on that space truck you would have panicked and turned on your fellow passengers because you've only just met them of course they're up to something...right? It's a companion lite story which works so well because it gives the doctor a chance to shine and boy does he shine bright in this. Tennants performance is absolutely amazing this is easily his best performance as the doctor up to now. The fact that we never ever see the creature (the well never happened be quiet!) Makes it 10 times scarier. Overall a perfectly accurate psychological horror that does a good job at depicting our fears and emotions as humans. 10/10
