The Doctor: [voice over] As you come into this world, something else is also born. You begin your life, and it begins a journey towards you. It moves slowly, but it never stops. Wherever you go, whatever path you take, it will follow - never faster, never slower, always coming. You will run; it will walk. You will rest; it will not. One day, you will linger in the same place too long; you will sit too still or sleep too deep. And when, too late, you rise to go, you will notice a second shadow ...

Trivia
Jenna Coleman's name has been removed from the opening credits, making this the first regular episode of the revived series to only credit one actor during the title sequence. To make up for the extra time required, 'Peter Capaldi' (wvw)'s name is held on screen for a couple of seconds before moving away, also a first. See more »Quotes

There is still, as of the time of writing this, an episode to go (and the Xmas special), but what a season this has been! There's been some really standout episodes in the past runs, but no season has come close to this as a whole.
Honestly, the only episode this year which was a bit of a misfire was Mark Gatiss' "Sleep No More", and it wasn't even bad. It was a perfectly standard episode of Doctor Who which just didn't match the same level of excellence of the other installments around it.
Seriously, just between "Heaven Sent", which is undoubtedly the Twelfth Doctor's best thus far, and his speech in "The Zygon Inversion", Peter Capaldi had better receive a BAFTA award for this series!
This episode was just brilliant. It was dark, atmospheric, introspective, and clever. And it's almost better upon repeat viewing, picking up all those extra little nuances.
