For over a year now, when we first learned that matt smith would soon be leaving doctor who and that scottish actor peter capaldi would be his replacement, fans have been waiting to see a new doctor in action. with the series eight premiere episode deep breath, that wish has been granted. so does capaldi's twelfth doctor live up to expectations and what about the episode itself?much of the attention being focused on the episode was in regards to capaldi's new doctor.

Twelfth doctor initially stern and ruthless, but in reality kind and forgiving, the twelfth doctor was the first incarnation of the doctor's second regeneration cycle, bestowed upon him by the time lords at clara oswald's urging at the end of the siege of trenzalore. assured of the survival of gallifrey, the doctor was no longer chained down by guilt, becoming a less amiable character, as he no longer needed to cover the pain of what he thought was the extinction of the time lords, with a withdrawn attitude who habitually questioned his own goodness. he often dispensed with niceties in a tense situation, becoming cold and calculative when needed.
