Twice Upon a Time was the 2017 Doctor Who Christmas special. It was the final episode under showrunner Steven Moffat's tenure, and featured the regeneration of Peter Capaldi's Twelfth Doctor, into Jodie Whittaker's Thirteenth.

The First Doctor had his first full appearance on the programme since The Five Doctors. Here, he was portrayed by David Bradley, who had previously played William Hartnell himself in An Adventure in Space and Time. This was the first interaction between a "classic" Doctor and a BBC Wales era Doctor since 2006's Time Crash. Archival footage from The Tenth Planet is used to bookmark the First Doctor's place in this story. This was the final adventure for both the First and Twelfth Doctors. Both, in the end, regenerate into their next incarnations. The special also introduced Captain Archibald, a new member of the Lethbridge-Stewart family.

Ben Jackson and Polly Wright make a brief re-reappearance in the programme for the first time since their exit in 1967's The Faceless Ones. Bill Potts joins the two Doctors, and Captain Lethbridge-Stewart, as a Testimony glass avatar. Past companions Nardole and Clara, briefly, make similar appearances.

Synopsis

Two Doctors stranded in a foreboding snowscape, refusing to face regeneration. In the final chapter of the Twelfth Doctor's adventure, he must face his past to decide his future. It is the end of an era, but the Doctor's journey is only just beginning...
