Night and the Doctor was a series of five mini-episodes of Doctor Who released as part of the complete Series 6 DVD collection. The names of the episodes, all written by showrunner Steven Moffat, are:

Episodes

Bad Night

When Amy is woken up in the middle of the night by the TARDIS telephone, she discoversthe Doctor carries on a very active social and adventuring life while his companions are asleep. In this one, he is trying to rescue the English monarch from having been turned into a goldfish.

Good Night

Amy finally gets to ask the Doctor the question that has been plaguing her since DW: Space: how can she remember two distinct histories of her life since the universe was rebooted in DW: The Big Bang? The Doctor in part answers her question by giving her a chance to do a good deed for herself when she was a child.

First Night

The Doctor arrives at Stormcage to pick up River Song on the evening of her first day of imprisonment, serving twelve-thousand consecutive life sentences. It's their "first date", but his plans are complicated when a future version of River turns up.

Last Night

With no less than three different River Songs from different times roaming the TARDIS, the Doctor has to avoid contaminating the timeline. Along the way he encounters a future version of himself en route to his and River's final outing (as described in DW: Forest of the Dead).

Up All Night

This mini-episode is unconnected to the other four and is in fact a prelude to DW: Closing Time, focusing on Craig Owens and his family the night before the events of the episode.
