Review

This episode was first broadcast on 9 June 2007. A brief and somewhat spoiler-ish summary of the plot: once upon a time a girl visited a haunted house, and found that the Doctor would be there before her...

Click. No, really, click.

And beware of the weeping angels.

This is excellent. The episode is written by Steven Moffat, who also gave us 'The empty child / The Doctor dances' and 'The girl in the fireplace', and that says it all, really. It's well-written, you don't have a clue where the story is going before the very end, and there are likeable characters and excellent dialogue. There are also great performances and good direction.

My verdict:

Brilliant!

A great little story.
