888: Series 8 Round-Up

It wouldn't be the end of a series without an Artron Reviews round-up post. To celebrate the conclusion of Doctor Who Series 8, we've invited some of the best-loved reviewers, writers, artists and all-round good eggs from within the Whoniverse to sum up Peter Capaldi's first twelve episodes in 8 words each. Here's what they came up with.

"Twelve slices of Doctor Who at its best."
