Doctor Who "Into The Dalek'
"Doctor Who": Into The Dalek airs August 30. BBC One

We're still getting to know the new Doctor played by Peter Capaldi, but it looks like the 56-year-old Scottish actor is going to completely own his interpretation as an older, grumpier, and less romantic Doctor. That said, many fans are still trying to get used to the new tone of "Doctor Who." Under the direction of Ben Wheatley, the "Doctor Who" Season 8 opening episode is described as noticeably darker and moodier. What's more, the first episode, titled "Deep Breath," is described as quieter and less exciting than the new Doctor introductions of the past. "Doctor Who" Season 8 episode 2, titled "Into The Dalek," will air on Saturday August 30 at BBC One.

In "Doctor Who" Season 8 episode 2, "Into the Dalek," the Twelth Doctor will face the evil Daleks. According to sneak previews, the new episode will be one of the darkest episodes yet as executive producer Steven Moffat hints that "Into the Dalek" will take place in the most dangerous place in the universe. When Clara asked where they will be going in the "Into the Dalek" preview, the Doctor simply responds: "To darkness."

Essentially, the upcoming episode of "Doctor Who" will involve a Dalek fleet that surrounds a lone rebel ship. Now, it is up to the Doctor to face the evil Daleks and save the endangered ship.

Finally, Steven Moffat also offers a seriously significant tease of what "Doctor Who" fans can expect for the season ahead. Beginning with "Robot of Sherwood," the episode that follows "Into the Dalek," here are the plot teasers for every single episode of "Doctor Who" Season 8:

3. Robot of Sherwood – The Doctor discovers an evil plan from beyond the stars in Sherwood Forest. Who is real and who isn’t?

4. Listen – What scares the Doctor? Ghosts of the past and future crowd into the lives of the Doctor and Clara; a terrified caretaker in a children’s home, the last man standing in the universe, and a little boy who doesn’t want to join the army… “What’s that in the mirror, and the corner of your eye? What’s the footstep following, but never passing by?”

5. Time Heist - The Doctor is tasked with breaking into the Bank of Karabraxos, the deadliest in the cosmos. He is helped by a beautiful shape-shifter and cyber-augmented gamer. But nothing can prepare them for the Teller: a creature that can detect guilt.

6. The Caretaker - Clara has it all under control, so long as everybody in her life never actually meets, but then Coal Hill welcomes a new relief caretaker with a Scottish accent, while the Skovox Blitzer is ready to destroy humanity.

7. Kill the Moon - In the near future, the Doctor and Clara arrive on a decrepit shuttle making a suicide mission to the Moon. Crashing on the lunar surface, they find a mining base full of eviscerated corpses, spider-like creatures scuttling about in the dark, and a terrible dilemma.

8. Mummy on the Orient Express - The Mummy is stalking the passengers and if it sees you you have 66 seconds to live. Clara sees the Doctor at his most deadliest and most ruthless and realises it’s time to say goodbye.

9. Flatline - Clara is now separated from the Doctor and discovers a threat from another dimension. But how do you hide when even the walls are no protection? With no Doctor around, Clara goes against a foe that exists beyond normal perception.

10. In the Forest of the Night – The human race wakes up to the most surprising invasion yet: the trees have moved back in. Everywhere a forest has grown overnight and taken back the Earth.

11. Dark Water / Death in Heaven - In the mysterious world of the Nethersphere, plans have been drawn. Old friends and old enemies manoeuvre around the Doctor, and an impossible choice is looming over him. Death is not an end, promises the organisation known as 3W. “You betrayed me. You betrayed my trust, our friendship, and everything I’ve ever stood for. You let me down.”
