The eighth season of Doctor Who finally has a premiere date. The Twelfth Doctor, played by Peter Capaldi, will officially land on August 23rd. The feature-length premiere, titled Deep Breath, will be Capaldi's first full appearance as the Doctor since last year's Christmas special. Stakes will be especially high in this outing, since, after his last regeneration, the Doctor is either suffering from another bout of partial amnesia or something more serious. We'll find out later this summer.
