This episode is by far one of the best we have seen from the show. If you think about the episode as a whole, it flows and there is some brilliant acting from The Doctor and Clara. When I watched it for the first time, I was truly convinced by the characters and the 45 minute episode was, at some parts, very tense and gripping.
At the start, the Doctor discussing to himself, the theory of evolution and then he began to make creepy comments such as 'the reason we talk to our self when we are alone is because we know we are not alone'. From the start we are gripped and this tension doesn't stop for any point in the episode.
We also start to learn more about Danny Pink and we see him as a child, living in a Gloucester children's home. This scene itself is quite spooky as it is dark at night and the absolute silence during the whole 10 minute scene is terrifying.
The best part of the episode, which I'm sure you already know, is the part where Clara visits the Doctor as a child, sleeping in the barn (the barn the War Doctor visits in the 50th Anniversary special) and is terrified of the dark and sleeping at night. Clara reassures him and tells him how fear is in everyone and fear makes you strong and kind. She also mentions how he will visit this barn again in many years time, very nervous as he will have to make a huge decision (Time War).
Everyone who watches the show knows that this episode is amazing and those people who have scored it less than 7 are just trying to look cool and different. Maybe you should watch the episode again to understand that it is one of the best in the series, hence why it has such a high rating (9.4)!!!!!
