Doctor Who/Recap/S30/E08 Silence in the Library: Difference between revisions

This very scary two-part episode, written by [[Steven Moffat]], introduces a ''tremendously'' important character to the series: Professor Dr. River Song. Moffat wrote the story after being promoted to head writer of ''[[Doctor Who (TV)|Doctor Who]]'' from series 5 onwards. An early version of the library itself was introduced by Moffat in his 1996 short story "[[Continuity Errors (Literature)|Continuity Errors]]", the first ''Doctor Who'' story he ever wrote.

 

 

''Silence In The Library'' was broadcast with a special warning to parents: don't let your kids watch it late at night.
