Heaven Sent is a gripping Doctor Who episode which perfectly marries the talents of Peter Capaldi, Steven Moffat and Rachel Talalay...
When you've got a show that hinges around a man in a box, who can travel anywhere to anytime, its format affords you an awful lot of options. That's no secret.
Rarely, though, in the history of Doctor Who has the decision been made to zero in on one character for so long, especially so close to the end of a run. But that's just what happens here. Heaven Sent - the penultimate episode of Doctor Who series 9 - thus opts to go off in an unusual direction again. The show's been doing that a lot - to its immense credit - this year. It's also been doing a lot of horror nudges and winks, and this one is no different.

Doctor Who has secured five nominations for this year's BAFTA Cymru Awards.
Peter Capaldi and Jenna Coleman have both been recognised in the acting categories, while the show itself is up for three technical prizes.
Capaldi is up against Richard Harrington (Y Gwyll/Hinterland) and Rhys Ifans (Dan y Wenallt) for Actor, while Coleman faces competition from Mali Harries (Y Gwyll/Hinterland) and Rhian Morgan (Gwaith/Cartref) for Actress.
Will Oswald's work on last year's episode 'Dark Water' has received a nomination for Editing, while festive special 'Last Christmas' is among the Special and Visual Effects nominees.
The show's title sequence could also win an award following its redesign for the eighth series.
Elsewhere, Set Fire to the Stars leads the pack with seven nominations, while Da Vinci's Demons follows with six nods.

Zac Efron seemed to have it all. After he shot to fame at age 17 after starring as squeaky-clean basketball star Troy Bolton on Disney Channel's High School Musical franchise, it appeared the heartthrob had avoided the pitfalls of youthful stardom. But after it was revealed Monday that Efron, now 25, had checked into rehab earlier this year, sources tell People the seemingly straight-arrow actor - who has never run into trouble with the law and has a sterling reputation as a professional on set - partied much harder than his public image let on.
