Pull To Open Podcast: In the Forest of the Night - Doctor Who
0Safe Arbor (Cultivating "In the Forest of the Night"): What do trees, the end of human civilization, and the psychological trauma of losing a family member all have in common? They're all ostensibly what In the Forest of the Night is about — one of the more epic-in-scale episodes of Peter Capaldi's first series as the Doctor. It's not well remembered, a pretty clear case study of a story's reach exceeding its grasp. But it does grasp something, and with some compelling ideas and the series regulars giving it their all, it may be time to re-examine its place in Who canon. Let's venture back into the forest, and maybe this time we'll close our eyes if we encounter any CGI wolves.
