Doctor Who – Episode 5.08 – The Hungry Earth – Press Release Synopsis

It’s 2015 and the most ambitious drilling project in history has reached deeper beneath the Earth’s crust than man has ever gone before – but now the ground itself is fighting back.

In the latest episode of the time-travelling drama, written by Chris Chibnall, the Doctor, Amy and Rory arrive in a tiny mining village and find themselves plunged into a battle against a deadly danger from a bygone age.

The Doctor is played by Matt Smith and Amy Pond by Karen Gillan.
