Meanwhile in the TARDIS 2 was the second of two scenes produced exclusively for the Doctor Who: The Complete Fifth Series DVD and Blu-ray box sets. It was written by showrunner Steven Moffat.

The scene immediately follows TV: Flesh and Stone, and immediately precedes TV: The Vampires of Venice.

Plot

At midnight, 26 June 2010, after almost being seduced by Amy, the Eleventh Doctor forces her back into the TARDIS. She leans on the console with an expectant gaze directed at the Doctor, who ignores it and pulls the door release lever next to her to lock the TARDIS doors.

Amy asks if she did something wrong. She thinks she is getting "mixed messages" from the Doctor. She unlocks the doors. The Doctor re-locks them and asks Amy how she's getting mixed messages. Amy says he showed up in the middle of the night to take her for a ride in his time machine. Amy insists that it's an obvious signal, telling her to "Get your coat, love, the Doctor's in."

The Doctor hurriedly explains he didn't bring her with him because he found her attractive. He proudly insists that he's like Gandalf in space. Amy says he acts like a regular bloke, showing off for the girls and laughing at other guys, making fun of Rory's nose.

The Doctor tells Amy that he can't "see it" any more. He's made time and space his back yard for over nine hundred years, so everything about it is now just facts to him. But Amy can "see it", which lets the Doctor see it as well. That is his only reason. Amy wonders if there have been others before her.

The Doctor reluctantly admits that he's had "a few" companions, but Amy won't let go. She wonders how many were girls. The Doctor admits girls made up "a bit over half" of his companions. Amy tricks the Doctor into accessing the TARDIS's visual records. To his dismay, the TARDIS plays black and white visual records on the screen of many female companions -- leaving out the men and K9 -- from Barbara Wright to Donna Noble, in random order. Amy wonders about one of the Fourth Doctor's companions, Leela. She appears repeatedly in a leather bikini.

Embarrassed, the Doctor decides to collect Rory to have Amy focus on her life. Amy informs him Rory is having his bachelor party. With a smirk, the Doctor tells her, "Well, let's make it a great one" before starting up the TARDIS and flying to the early evening of 25 June 2010. (TV: The Vampires of Venice)

Production errors

  • The Doctor moves a lever on the console next to Amy into the up position. When Amy moves the lever down, the Doctor moves it back up again. When the camera cuts back to Amy, the level is still down.

Continuity

  • Amy continues her attempts to seduce the Doctor from the previous scene in her bedroom. (TV: Flesh and Stone)
  • The TARDIS travels from Amy's bedroom, at midnight, 26 June 2010, (TV: Flesh and Stone) to a local pub on the prior evening. Sunlight is still flooding the pub when the Doctor fetches Rory in TV: The Vampires of Venice
  • The Doctor's sentiments about having become blasé about travelling throughout space and time are echoed by Amy, a decade into her companionship, in Dinosaurs on a Spaceship. Likewise, she and Rory adopt the Doctor's fondness for seeing his less experienced, less jaded companions' view of his world, as shown when the three watch Brian Williams marveling at the Earth from high above it while silently enjoying his afternoon tea in the same episode.
  • When asked if the prior companions were old or young, the Doctor asserts that everyone is young when compared to him. Jack Harkness, however, was more than twice the Doctor's age in The Stolen Earth / Journey's End and their brief encounter in End of Time, having aged 1,982 years in Adam, on top of the 110 years he waited from before Fragments until the Doctor's return in End of Days/Utopia. The next day (Earth's perspective), Rory Williams would also be over two millenia old when his Auton timeline merged with his human timeline, leaving human Rory with both sets of memories. (TV: The Big Bang, Bad Night, et al.)
  • Amy reminds the Doctor that he took her away in her nightie (TV: The Eleventh Hour, Meanwhile in the TARDIS 1) which he "did not let [her] change out of for ages." (TV: The Beast Below)
