On paper, Doctor Who tackling immigration and extremism might not sound like the set-up for a rip-roaring family adventure. But with 'The Zygon Invasion', Peter Harness does what all great science-fiction writers do, and uses the genre to hold up a microscope to the world as we know it.
The bare bones of the tale are this: after the events of 'The Day of the Doctor', alien shape-shifters The Zygons have struck an accord with humanity and are living amongst us in their millions, hiding in plain sight.
But when a splinter group breaks the peace, the Doctor (Peter Capaldi) must assist an under-fire Unit in countering the threat to Earth... if he can only decide where the real danger lurks.
The Zygons felt like an afterthought in 2013's anniversary special, lost amidst the fireworks, but this is the full-blooded Zygon epic that Doctor Who fans have been waiting 40 years for.
