The Doctor Drops In was a mini-episode of Doctor Who. Originally performed as a live scene of Matt Smith as the Eleventh Doctor, it was professionally filmed by the BBC and released on television and YouTube as a skit in its own right. Because stage plays are not valid sources on our Wiki, we only consider the broadcast/webcast version of this story valid, not the original live performance.
