We've had ghost hunting, submarine warfare, and trips to the depths of outer space, but now things are turning in on themselves, as the TARDIS takes centre stage. Not since we saw the heart of the police box personified has the TARDIS played such a central role, but here's the BBC's official blurb: "The TARDIS has crashed, Clara is lost inside, and the Doctor has 30 minutes before his ship explodes!" Sounds exciting!
