Doctor Who's Peter Capaldi stars in first full trailer for The Devil's Hour

The first full trailer for Peter Capaldi's chilling new TV thriller The Devil's Hour has been released.

The Prime Video series sees the Doctor Who star play a nomad called Gideon who has a murderous obsession, opposite Call the Midwife's Jessica Raine as Lucy, who has been waking up every night at the so-called devil's hour, 3.33am, with horrific visions.

In the clip, we get a gauge on the show's very creepy atmosphere, while there's a few (very unrelated) Doctor Who nods too.

"My perception of time is better than anyone's," Gideon declares at one point, while he is also asked whether he is a "time traveller or fortune teller".

The Devil's Hour has been created by The Feed's Tom Moran and counts Steven Moffat as an executive producer.

Speaking about the show earlier this year, Capaldi told RadioTimes.com: "The nature of the piece is quite spectacularly dark and that can be quite enjoyable."

The star added: "Everything starts with the scripts and Tom's scripts were wonderful and inventive and such a brilliant idea at the core.

"Kind of an aspect of it is that you should listen to your nightmares, because they may be communicating with you in some way."

Capaldi further explained of the character dynamic on the show: "Jess plays a character who Gideon has absolutely targeted. He is coming for her, he is coming for her child, he will not be stopped. But the reason that he's doing it is not what you think... or maybe it is."

The Devil's Hour is set to premiere on October 28 on Amazon Prime Video.
