List of Doctor Who episodes (2005–present)

The 2008–2010 specials of the Britishscience fiction television programme Doctor Who are five specials that linked the programme's fourth and fifth series. The specials were produced in lieu of a full series in 2009, to allow the new production team for the programme to have enough time to prepare for the fifth series in 2010. The first special was broadcast on 25 December 2008 with 'The Next Doctor', with the last special, the two-part serial The End of Time, broadcasting over two weeks on 25 December 2009 and 1 January 2010.

The specials started production in April 2008 for 'The Next Doctor', and filming for the final special The End of Time began in March 2009. Two supplemental episodes were also filmed alongside the specials. 'Music of the Spheres' was filmed for the 2008 Doctor Who Prom in July 2008, and the animated six-episode serial Dreamland was produced for the BBC's Red Button service, which was released over six consecutive days in November 2009.

The specials included appearances of one-off companions, portrayed by David Morrissey, Velile Tshabalala, Michelle Ryan, Lindsay Duncan and Bernard Cribbins, as well as featuring cast from previous seasons, including Catherine Tate, Billie Piper, Freema Agyeman, Noel Clarke, John Barrowman, Elisabeth Sladen and John Simm. After the fourth series was the final full series to star David Tennant as the Doctor, and the last with lead writer and showrunner Russell T Davies, the specials marked their official departure from the programme, with Matt Smith and Steven Moffat replacing them as the Doctor and the lead writer and showrunner respectively.

Christina, a thief, steals an ancient gold chalice and catches a bus with the Doctor just before the bus passes through a wormhole and ends up on the desert planet San Helios. The Doctor contacts UNIT to return the other passengers safely to Earth. The Doctor and Christina scout ahead, while the others attempt to repair the bus, and are taken to a wrecked spaceship by two alien Tritovores. The Doctor realises that a swarm of stingray-like aliens that feed by destroying the ecosystem is approaching them. The spaceship is revealed to have been crashed by the stingrays, who kill the Tritovores. The Doctor then realises that the wormhole was created by the stingrays to move to their next feeding planet; Earth. With the swarm nearly on them, the Doctor uses technology from the spaceship and the chalice to enable the bus to fly. They fly back through the wormhole just as UNIT close it, but not before three stingrays get through, which UNIT quickly kill. Christina is arrested but the Doctor allows her to escape using the bus. Carmen, a passenger who is slightly psychic, tells the Doctor 'He will knock four times' before his death, unnerving him.

The Doctor arrives on Mars in 2059, near humanity's first Martian colony, 'Bowie Base One'. He arrives at the base, where he is detained by Captain Adelaide Brooke. As the crew interrogate him, he discovers that today, the base will explode, killing the entire crew. He tries to stay uninvolved, but Adelaide forces him to assist. Two crewmen appear to be in a zombie-like state, generating copious amounts of water. With the remaining crew uninfected, Adelaide orders the crew to evacuate to their rocket back to Earth while setting the base to self-destruct. The Doctor explains to Adelaide what he knows and why he cannot get involved, and begins to leave. Ed, the rocket's pilot, is infected, and sacrifices himself by causing the rocket to self-destruct, stranding the remaining crew. The Doctor rescues Adelaide and the surviving crew, Yuri and Mia. He returns them to Earth. The Doctor insists that he has the power to change the future of the human race and no-one can stop him; Adelaide returns home and kills herself, leaving history mostly unchanged.

202a4The End of Time, 'Part One'Euros LynRussell T Davies25 December 20094.1712.0487
On the Ood-Sphere in 4226, the Ood warn the Doctor that the Master has returned, heralding 'the end of time'. On Earth, a cult of women resurrect the Master, but Lucy Saxon sabotages the ceremony, causing the Master to be brought back with incredible strength but constant hunger. Arriving back on Earth on Christmas Eve, the Doctor encounters Wilfred Mott. The Doctor finds the Master at wastelands outside London, and learns that the Master has been suffering from hearing the sound of drums. The Master is taken by armed troops and placed in custody of Joshua Naismith. Naismith has recovered a broken alien 'Immortality Gate' and wants the Master to fix its programming. The Doctor regroups with Wilfred; a woman in white warns Wilfred to arm himself to before departing. At Naismith's mansion, the Doctor and Wilfred meet two Vinvocci disguised as humans, who assert the Gate is a harmless medical device from their homeworld. The Master activates the Gate, which he has reprogrammed to replace all of humankind's DNA with his own; only Wilfred and Donna are unchanged, and Donna remembers the Doctor. Elsewhere, the Lord President of the Time Lords asserts their plan can continue, and that the Time Lords will return.
202b5The End of Time, 'Part Two'Euros LynRussell T Davies1 January 20104.1812.2789
The Doctor and Wilfred become fugitives from the Masters, and take refuge on the Vinvocci spacecraft. The Lord President implants the sound of drums in the Master's head as a child, and launches a whitepoint star to Earth, to be used to create a link that allows the Time Lords to bring Gallifrey to Earth. The Lord President and an ensemble of Time Lords appear in Naismith's mansion. The Doctor and the Vinvocci bring the ship to land, the Doctor jumps from it. The Doctor debates between shooting the Master or the Lord President. The Doctor spots the same woman in white Wilfred had seen, who silently communicates to him. The Doctor fires the gun at the whitepoint star, shattering it. As Gallifrey is pulled back, the Lord President, Rassilon, attempts to kill the Doctor, but the Master intervenes, and humanity is restored as Gallifrey returns. The Doctor finds Wilfred is now trapped in one of the Gate's control rooms that is about to be flooded by radiation. The Doctor sacrifices himself, and absorbs the radiation, but knows that his body will soon regenerate. After returning Wilfred, the Doctor visits past companions and acquaintances. Inside his TARDIS, the Doctor sets the TARDIS in flight before regenerating into the Eleventh Doctor.

1'Music of the Spheres'Euros LynRussell T Davies27 July 2008
The beginning of the episode depicts the Tenth Doctor composing Ode to the Universe: a symphony based on the 'music of the spheres'—an aural representation of the Universe's gravity patterns. During the composition, a Graske teleports into the TARDIS to warn the Doctor about the imminent opening of a portal linking the TARDIS to the Doctor Who Prom at the Royal Albert Hall. The Doctor conducts the orchestra in a performance before he realises the Graske has escaped into the Prom with his water pistol. He forces the Graske's return by 'reversing the polarity of the neutron flow' and banishes him from the TARDIS and to the other side of the universe. At the end of the episode, he tells the viewer that the music of the spheres encompasses everyone.
2DreamlandGary RussellPhil Ford21–26 November 2009
In Day Springs, Nevada, 1958, the Doctor visits a local diner, and meets the waitress on duty, Cassie Rice, as well as Jimmy Stalkingwolf, Cassie's friend, both of them local Nevadans. While in Day Springs, the Doctor becomes interested in an extraterrestrial object, which draws the attention of a man in black. Also seeking the Doctor is an alien warrior, the ruthless Lord Azlok, an alien Viperox, as well as Colonel Stark, who serves as the commander of Area 51, a military base primarily known as Dreamland. The Doctor, along with the help of Cassie, Jimmy, and Jimmy's grandfather Night Eagle, plan a mission to rescue husband and wife Rivesh Mantilax and Saruba Valek, two stranded aliens, without being caught by the American armed forces or Lord Azlok.

Casting[edit]

Main characters[edit]

These specials marked David Tennant's final run of episodes as the Tenth Doctor and Matt Smith's first appearance as the newly regenerated Eleventh Doctor. They also featured a string of one-time Companions beginning in 'The Next Doctor' with David Morrissey as Jackson Lake, a man who thinks himself to be the Doctor[5][6] and his 'companion' Rosita Farisi played by Velile Tshabalala.[7] 'Planet of the Dead' featured Michelle Ryan as young thrill-seeking burglar Lady Christina de Souza.[8][9] 'The Waters of Mars' starred Lindsay Duncan as Adelaide Brooke, Captain of Bowie Base One on Mars.[10] Finally, the two-part The End of Time had Bernard Cribbins as recurring character Wilfred Mott as a full-fledged companion for the first time.[11]

Other companions appear briefly during the Tenth Doctor's 'farewell tour': Catherine Tate as Donna Noble, Billie Piper as Rose Tyler,[12]Freema Agyeman as Martha Jones,[13]Noel Clarke as Mickey Smith, John Barrowman as Captain Jack Harkness,[14] and Elisabeth Sladen as Sarah Jane Smith,[15] and Verity Newman, whose grandmother, Joan Redfern, fell in love with the human John Smith in 'Human Nature' and 'The Family of Blood'.[16]John Simm reprises his role as the Master in The End of Time.[17]

Production[edit]

Development[edit]

Following the specials Russell T Davies stood down as show runner for Doctor Who after resurrecting it after sixteen years off the air.

In his book The Writer's Tale, Russell T Davies reveals that the plan to have only specials for 2009 was to allow the new production team headed by new lead writer Steven Moffat to have enough time to prepare for the full fifth series in 2010. David Tennant took this opportunity to appear in a stage production of Hamlet. For practical reasons, these specials continued to use series 4 production codes.

Russell T. Davies' announced his departure from the series as show runner, head writer and executive producer of the show on 20 May 2008, with his final episode airing in 2010.[18] The specials not only marked an end to Davies's role as the show runner, but also Tennant's reign as the Doctor. On 28 October 2008 at the National Television Awards during his speech after winning Outstanding Drama Performance for his work in the fourth series, David Tennant announced that he would be standing down as the Doctor for the fifth series and that the specials would be his last.[19]

Writing[edit]

'I would have thought that when I handed in the last script I might have burst into tears or got drunk or partied with 20 naked men, but when these great moments happen you find that real life just carries on. The emotion goes into the scripts.'

Russell T. Davies[20]

Davies' role in late 2008 was split between writing the 2009 specials and preparing for the transition between his and Moffat's production team; one chapter of The Writer's Tale: The Final Chapter discusses plans between him, Gardner, and Tennant to announce Tennant's departure live during ITV's National Television Awards in October 2008.[21] His final full script for Doctor Who was finished in the early morning of 4 March 2009, and filming of the episode closed on 20 May 2009.[22][23] Russell T Davies co-wrote 'Planet of the Dead' with Gareth Roberts, the first writing partnership for the show since its 2005 revival.[24] Davies also co-wrote the next episode, 'The Waters of Mars', with Phil Ford.[25]

Writing in his regular column in Doctor Who Magazine 416, Davies revealed that the original title for 'Part One' of The End of Time was 'The Final Days of Planet Earth', while 'Part Two' was always referred to as 'The End of Time'.[1] Due to the sheer scale of the story, however, it was decided that both instalments needed the same title, differentiated by part numbers,[1] the first such instance since Survival.[1] Davies's script for the second episode finished with the Tenth Doctor's final line, 'I don't want to go', followed by action text describing the regeneration and ending with the words, 'And there he is. Blinking. Dazed. The New Man.'[26] He then sent the script to his successor Steven Moffat, who is responsible for all of the Eleventh Doctor's dialogue that follows.[27] Moffat, as incoming executive producer, also assisted in the production of the final scene.[28]

Filming[edit]

'The Next Doctor' was filmed in April 2008 at Gloucester Cathedral,[29][30]St Woolos Cemetery in Newport[31] and the streets of Gloucester, where shooting was hampered by up to 1,000 onlookers. The main setting of Torchwood, their Torchwood Hub was also redesigned and used as the workshop for the children.[32] The two major filming locations of 'Planet of the Dead' were the desert of Dubai was used for scenes on the 'planet of the dead'; and the Queen's Gate Tunnel in Butetown, Cardiff was used for the majority of Earth-bound scenes. Filming for 'The Waters of Mars' began on 23 February 2009. In late February, David Tennant, Duncan and other actors were seen filming in Victoria Place, Newport.[33] The filming took place on a city street, which the production team covered with artificial snow.[33][34] The glasshouse scenes were filmed in the National Botanic Garden of Wales, Carmarthenshire.[35] The first location filming for The End of Time took place on Saturday, 21 March 2009 at a bookstore in Cardiff.[36]Jessica Hynes was filmed signing a book titled A Journal of Impossible Things, by Verity Newman.[37]

Critical reception[edit]

Preliminary figures show that 'The Next Doctor' had a viewing audience of 11.71 million during its original airing, with a peak at 12.58 million viewers. It was the second most watched programme of Christmas Day 2008, behind Wallace and Gromit's A Matter of Loaf and Death.[66] Final viewing figures show an audience of 13.1 million viewers.[67] The episode had an Appreciation Index figure of 86 (considered Excellent), making it the second most-enjoyed programme on mainstream television on Christmas Day. The only programme to score higher was A Matter of Loaf and Death, which scored 88.[68]

Overnight figures estimated that 'Planet of the Dead' was watched by 8.41 million people. The initial showing had an Appreciation Index of 88: considered excellent.[69][70] The final viewing figure for the initial broadcast was 9.54 million viewers on BBC One, making it the fifth most watched programme of the week and the most watched programme aired on BBC HD at that time.[71] Including repeats in the following week and viewings on the BBC iPlayer, 13.89 million viewers watched the episode in total.[72] The episode received average critical reviews. Simon Brew of science fiction blog Den of Geek said the episode was 'by turns ambitious and predictable' but 'still quite entertaining'. Brew positively reviewed Michelle Ryan's performance—comparing her performance to be on par to her role in Bionic Woman rather than her role as Zoe Slater in EastEnders. He closed his review by saying that 'Planet of the Dead' was passable enough': he thought it 'never really gelled' for him.[73]Charlie Jane Anders of io9 compared it to two previous episodes, 'The Impossible Planet' and 'Midnight', both of which she enjoyed. She thought that the episode was 'a pretty solid adventure with a cool set of monsters'.[74]

According to overnight viewing figures, 'The Waters of Mars' was watched by 9.1 million people.[75] The episode also received an Appreciation Index score of 88.[76] More accurate, consolidated statistics from the BARB state that official ratings ended up at 10.32 million viewers for the UK premiere and that 'The Waters of Mars' was the fifth most watched programme of the week.[77] It was first broadcast on a Sunday, the only non-Christmas episode of the revived series to air outside the usual Saturday evening slot. Critical reception was generally positive. Sam Wollaston of The Guardian complimented the episode for showing 'a side to the Doctor .. that we haven't really seen before – indecisive, confused, at times simply plain wrong' and Tennant's tenure of the part overall as bringing 'humanity and humour to the part'[78] Though Robert Colville of The Daily Telegraph criticised 'the glaring inconsistencies', he complimented the scenario for 'allow[ing] us to watch Tennant wrestle with his conscience and curiosity .. [in what] was a logical progression for the character'.[79]

Overnight ratings placed Part One of The End of Time as the third most-watched programme of Christmas Day,[80] and an appreciation index score of 87, considered 'Excellent'.[81] Final consolidated ratings placed Part One as the third most watched program of Christmas Day, behind The Royle Family and EastEnders with a final figure of 11.57 million viewers. This is the highest timeshift that the show has received since its revival (the previous highest being 11.4 million for The Next Doctor in Christmas 2008).[82] Overnight ratings placed Part Two as the second most-watched programme of New Year's Day, behind EastEnders, with a provisional viewing figure of 10.4 million viewers.[83] Official BARB ratings placed Part Two as the second most watched programme of the week behind EastEnders at 11.79 million viewers.[84] In a review of the first part of the story, Peter Robins of The Guardian concedes that when the story is done it is the quieter more emotional parts from the beginning of the episode that the viewer will remember. Robins also notes that Cribbins seems to be playing the same role that Tate did by 'becoming the tragic hero while remaining the comic relief.[85] Andrew Pettie of The Daily Telegraph commented on Cribbins' performance, and states that he cut a King Lear like figure and notes that the Master's plan was evil even by his standards.[86] Mark Lawson of The Guardian stated that the plot device of the Master repopulating the human race as himself 'gave Simm the chance to wear a lot of different costumes and the special effects department to show some of the digital ingenuity which has helped the show's renaissance.' Lawson also went on to praise Tennant for bringing a 'proper tragic force' to the role and was again shown in this last story. Lawson states that 'the final line Davies gave to Tennant was a suddenly regretful 'I don't want to go!', and it is likely that, somewhere inside, both actor and writer feel a little like that.'[87]
