Doctor Who – Fear Her

[WARNING - MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS]
A scary child-monster-thing – oooo! Probably the best sort of Doctor Who monster is the one who appears to be a child, but has some other sinister power (last year’s The Empty Child is another obvious example). This week’s could somehow trap people in her drawings in her search for friends.

The story was set in London of 2012, where the Doctor and Rose had gone to see the opening ceremony of the Olympic games. So not really a futuristic episode, but not present day either. I really liked the explanation of the alien presence for why it was so cold in the street (if it was supposed to be summer, but was presumably filmed early in the year) – very clever!
