The new series of Doctor Who kicked off tonight, and introduced us to it's latest, and some say scariest, monsters yet. The Silence.
The Silence has been mentioned a few times in the last season, though this is the first time they have been seen on screen. Scary to look at, they have the ability to render themselves forgettable when out of sight, and as such they have been free to manipulate history for some time.
Steven Moffat said “Humans will have been subconsciously aware of The Silence for many centuries and that awareness will have manifested itself in paintings such as The Scream.”

It will be interesting to see how The Silence is weaved into established history, and what impact they have in the Whoniverse.
