Listen (TV story)
Listen was the fourth episode of the eighth series of Doctor Who produced by BBC Wales.
Synopsis
After the Doctor has traveled alone for a time he stars having theories about creatures that are perfect in hiding. He thinks that they are always around, listening, and that nobody is truly alone, ever. To prove he's right he picks up Clara after her ruined date with Danny Pink and asks her if she ever had a very specific dream which in his opinion everybody has. Using Clara's timeline connected telepathically to the TARDIS he tries to trace that dream in order to spot the hiding creature. But a small distraction causes Clara to think of somebody else and they venture into another timeline. The search of the truth behind the fear leads the Doctor to the end of everything and to the very beginning - his own beginning...
