DOCTOR WHO
BBC America, 9:00 p.m. ET
SEASON PREMIERE: This is part two of the opening episode of Season 9 in this show’s modern era. Last week’s episode started with a typically imaginative and creepy image: a “hand mine” field of human-like hands that emerge from the ground, grab the ankles of people walking in the field, and pull them below ground. What was even more unsettling, though, came later: the deaths of two familiar female characters at the hands of the Daleks. (Well, not the hands. Daleks have no hands, at least not externally. Hold your emails.) The Doctor (Peter Capaldi) went back in time to try to correct this tragedy, and tonight we’ll find out whether he’s successful in that endeavor.
