Doctor Who: Night Terrors - Synopsis

The BBC have published the press details for Night Terrors, the ninth episode of this year's Doctor Who series, which is written by Mark Gatiss.

The Doctor receives a distress call from the scariest place in the Universe: a child's bedroom, as the time-travelling drama continues.

Every night George lies awake, terrorised by every fear you can possibly imagine – fears that live in his bedroom cupboard. His parents are getting desperate – George needs a doctor.

Fortunately for George, his desperate pleas for help break through the barriers of all time and space and the Doctor makes a house call. But allaying his fears won't be easy; because George's monsters are real.

The Doctor is played by Matt Smith, George by Jamie Oram, Amy by Karen Gillan and Rory by Arthur Darvill.

The episode will be broadcast on BBC ONE/HD on Saturday 3rd September. The exact transmission time will be confirmed next week.
