Revision as of 09:43, 3 August 2009

Template:Pre-broadcast spoiler

Note: The title used for this article comes from the tagline used on the first teaser trailer unveiled at the San Diego ComicCon on 26th July 2009. It has not yet been confirmed by the BBC. As such, it is subject to change as the broadcast date approaches.

A two-part Doctor Who special will be broadcast during the 2009–2010 Christmas season. This will be the last story for David Tennant as the Tenth Doctor prior to the character's regeneration into his eleventh incarnation, who will be played by Matt Smith. It will also be the last Doctor Who story written by Russell T Davies, who shepherded the series' return to British television in 2005 and has been the series' executive producer and chief writer since. Davies will be succeeded as executive producer and showrunner by Steven Moffat.

References

  • The name of Jessica Hynes' character, Verity Newman, may be a reference to Verity Lambert and Sydney Newman. This is the second time the revived series has honoured the two people who are considered among the primary creators of Doctor Who; a similar reference occurred in Human Nature when the Doctor, under his human guise, says his parents were named Verity and Sydney.

Rumours

Confirmed

  • All the Tenth's Doctor's companions have been seen as appearing, except Martha and Mickey (so far).
  • It has been confirmed that Jessica Hynes will appear as Verity Newman and published Journal of Impossible Things [19]
  • Bernard Cribbins, will return to play Wilfred Mott, grandfather of Donna Noble, will act as the Doctor's companion in this two-part story.[20]
  • Timothy Dalton was seen on set wearing Time Lord robes: this could mean the return of the Time Lords. [21]
  • The Ood will appear in this episode, as they may have been in the trailer.

Unconfirmed

  • The Meta-Crisis Tenth Doctor will appear
  • There is a rumor, that one of the unknown men (shown only the eyes and nose before the Ood in the trailer) is Christopher Eccleston, the Ninth Doctor
  • It is rumoured that Dalton will be playing The Monk.
  • It is rumoured that it will be revealed how the Eighth Doctor rengerated into the Ninth Doctor
  • It is possible that the sequences featuring the Doctor's past companions may be part of a nightmare or dream. This is rumored from the End of Time trailer in which it mentioned those on Earth having bad dreams.

Trailers

A teaser trailer was shown at Comic-Con 2009. The voiceover is provided by Timothy Dalton.
"It is said that in the final days of planet Earth, everyone had bad dreams".

  • An unknown person laughs after this.
  • We then see multiple clips, including those of the Tenth Doctor, what may be a crazed Ood, Donna Noble, Wilfred Mott, Sylvia Noble and a unknown man, David Harewood as an unknown character (possibly called Joshua Naismith), and a hooded man.
  • The mood is very dark. A female voice says "He returns". The voice belongs to Lucy Saxon. Then the Master is shown, with a dyed, blonde hair. He says, "My name is the Master".
  • The tag line at the end of the trailer is "The End of Time", "Christmas 2009".
