The Doctor returns with season 8 of Doctor Who, continuing his journey with his companion Clara Oswald. In episode 9, titled "Flatline," the Doctor and Clara land in Bristol, a city that is being plagued by strange occurrences. The episode explores the concept of the "two-dimensional universe," where the Doctor and Clara must fend off a swarm of deadly creatures that come out of a spatial portal.

As the episode begins, we see the TARDIS arrive in Bristol, but something is awry. As the Doctor walks out of the TARDIS, his size seems to be shrinking rapidly. This phenomenon is only the beginning of a wave of strange occurrences that are happening in the city, as Clara quickly discovers as she ventures out to explore.

The Doctor is soon forced to retreat back into the TARDIS as he continues to shrink, leaving Clara to investigate the city on her own. It soon becomes clear that the shapes and structures of the city are inexplicably changing - walls move and shift, and buildings begin to collapse without any warning.

As Clara delves deeper into the mystery, she finds a group of graffiti artists who are being hunted by the creatures responsible for the strange occurrences. These creatures are revealed to be two-dimensional beings whose shape and dimension-bending powers are causing chaos.

As the Doctor's size continues to diminish, he becomes trapped inside the TARDIS and is forced to communicate with Clara through a handheld device. However, the Doctor's cleverness and resourcefulness are put to the test as he attempts to help Clara find a way to stop the creatures.

As they work together, the Doctor and Clara are able to devise a plan to lure the creatures into a "trap" using a painting created by one of the graffiti artists. With her knowledge of the city's history and architecture, Clara is able to guide the Doctor's shrinking TARDIS through the dangerous city to execute their plan.

As the episode progresses, the danger continues to escalate, and the Doctor and Clara must fight to keep the creatures from destroying the city and taking over our world. With the help of a group of artists and a local train operator, they work tirelessly to save the day.

The Doctor is faced with some difficult decisions as he attempts to stop the two-dimensional creatures, and Clara becomes more and more involved in the action as the episode goes on.

Overall, "Flatline" is a thrilling and suspenseful episode of Doctor Who. The acting and storytelling are both strong, with clever plot twists and exciting action sequences. This episode is one that fans of the show will not want to miss.
