Revision as of 10:22, 27 December 2017
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 last regular appearance of Peter Capaldi as the Twelfth Doctor.
Concluding the end of the Twelfth Doctor's life teased in World Enough and Time and shown throughout the events of The Doctor Falls and this episode, the ending showed the Doctor's regeneration and introduced Jodie Whittaker as the Thirteenth Doctor, marking the first female incarnation of the Doctor in the series history.
After a surprise appearance at the end of the last episode 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 televised interaction between a "classic" Doctor and a BBC Wales era Doctor since 2007's Time Crash. Archival footage from The Tenth Planet is used to bookmark the First Doctor's place in this story. The special also introduced Archibald Hamish Lethbridge-Stewart, credited as "the Captain", 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. The "good Dalek" Rusty, from Capaldi's second episode, Into the Dalek, makes his second appearance—in Villengard, a location mentioned only once before on television, in 2005's The Doctor Dances .

Story notes
- The Twelfth Doctor's regeneration has a new visual effect, and even sound effect, to those used previously in the BBC Wales series. Resembling slow, elongated golden lightning, it is the first regeneration for the Doctor, since the Seventh Doctor's in 1996, to use an effect which is visually distinct from that seen in The Parting of the Ways, with the Ninth Doctor up to The Doctor Falls.
- Toby Whithouse is the second person involved in the BBC Wales series as both an actor and a writer, following Mark Gatiss.
- This is the third consecutive regeneration story to include the word "time" in the title, following The End of Time and The Time of the Doctor.
- This is the second multi-Doctor story to feature a regeneration, and the first in which it is the current incarnation of the Doctor who is shown to regenerate. (TV: The Day of the Doctor)
- Nikki Amuka-Bird is credited as "Helen Clay" on-screen, and as "The Glass Woman" in Radio Times.
- When Bill's glass avatar and the Doctor talk and she restores his memories of Clara Oswald, the music from The Husbands of River Song when the Doctor and River were on a date before the Singing Towers of Darillium plays.
- Nardole having invisible hair was already jokingly stated by Steven Moffat in a BBC post episode interview.[11] There he also stated that Nardole was the only one able to see it through his glasses and that it was purple.
- The Twelfth Doctor's final lines about his name and how humans would understand it are directly taken from a theory Capaldi stated at a press screening interview of The Pilot.[12]
- The Twelfth Doctor's line "don't eat pears" is from an unshown scene of Human Nature.
- This is the first regeneration story in the revived series to not have any direct connections to the Last Great Time War.
- This is the third multi-Doctor story, after The Two Doctors and Time Crash, that's not an anniversary special.
