About this listen

23 November, 1963. It is the day after John F. Kennedy's assassination - and the faces of the dead are everywhere.

PC Reg Cranfield sees his late father in the mists along Totter's Lane. Reporter Mae Callon sees her grandmother in a coffee stain on her desk. FBI Special Agent Warren Skeet finds his long-dead partner staring back at him from raindrops on a window pane. Then the faces begin to talk, and scream... and push through into our world.

As the alien Shroud begins to feast on the grief of a world in mourning, can the Doctor dig deep enough into his own sorrow to save mankind?

A thrilling new adventure from the spectacular BBC series, starring Matt Smith and Jenna-Louise Coleman.

Well, it was okay.

I was excited to find a story with the Eleventh Doctor and Clara, since there are so few of them, but this just wasn't too great. The doctor was always just a little too silly, and he and Clara argued a little too much. Bits of the story are interesting, but a lot of it is just super *weird*. There is one poignant moment.
The narrator is decent, but her American accent is... well, maybe it sounds good to other British people, :)

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
