The Eleventh Hour was the first episode of the fifth series of BBC Wales Doctor Who. It featured the debut of Karen Gillan as new companion Amy Pond and Arthur Darvill as recurring character and future companion, Rory Williams.

Though not the first episode filmed of the 2010 series, it was nevertheless the public's first full exposure to a new production ethos, as shaped by then-new executive producers Steven Moffatt, Piers Wenger, and Beth Willis. It was also the public's first exposure to director Adam Smith's work on a Doctor Who universe programme.

The episode was extensively previewed prior to broadcast, with special screenings in several British cities as part of a special promotional tour at the end of March 2010, and special pre-broadcast screenings on both the east and west coasts of the United States. The first minute of the episode was released as a special preview on the digital Red Button service in the week prior to its first BBC One broadcast.[1][2]

Synopsis

The Doctor has regenerated into a brand new man, but danger strikes before he can recover. With the TARDIS wrecked, and the sonic screwdriver destroyed, the new Doctor has just twenty minutes to save the whole world - and only Amy Pond to help him.

Plot

After sustaining major damage from the Tenth Doctor's regeneration, the Doctor's TARDIS flies wildly through London. An explosion on the console throws open the doors and the Eleventh Doctor is barely hanging onto the edge of the entrance. As he tries to get back in, he notices the TARDIS is heading towards Big Ben. Using his sonic screwdriver, the Doctor manages to divert the TARDIS. Before he can relax, another explosion makes it spin wildly off into the distance

In 1996, Amelia is praying to Santa in her bedroom. There is a crack in her wall she wants mended. She hears a crash and runs to the window. She sees the crashed TARDIS and goes to investigate. The TARDIS doors fly open and the Doctor pulls himself out. He asks her for an apple. His regeneration's aftereffects are giving him a craving. After the Doctor tries a variety of foods (including yoghurt, bacon, beans, and buttered bread), he decides on fish fingers and custard.

The Doctor opening the Crack in time and space in Amelia's wall

The Doctor examines the crack in Amelia's wall. He deduces that it is a crack in time and space. Listening to the wall, he hears a voice saying "Prisoner Zero has escaped"; there is a prison on the other side of this crack, with an inmate missing. To close it, the Doctor uses his sonic screwdriver to open it wide. While it's open, an Atraxi sends him a message: 'Prisoner Zero has escaped'. He surmises that Prisoner Zero escaped through the crack, which acted as a wormhole. The Doctor investigates the corridor and senses he's missing something in the corner of his eye. The cloister bells chime, warning that the engines are going to overload and he rushes back to the TARDIS to fix it, promising Amelia to return in five minutes. An excited Amelia goes to pack her things, not noticing that the door the Doctor was about to discover has mysteriously opened.

The Doctor returns to Amelia's garden in daytime, and runs into the house. He's figured out what he was missing and Amelia's life is in danger. He is looking around the house when someone behind him whacks him on the head with a cricket bat. When he wakes -- hand-cuffed to a radiator -- he is confronted by a young woman in a police uniform. He asks about Amelia Pond. The woman says that Amelia hasn't lived in the house for six months. The Doctor asks her to count the number of rooms on the floor. She counts five, but the Doctor says six, One is protected by a perception filter. She is shocked and investigates the room, ignoring the Doctor's warnings. She finds the sonic screwdriver stuck to a table by goo. She picks it up and comes face to face with Prisoner Zero. Startled, she runs back to the Doctor and gives him his sonic screwdriver.

The Doctor locks the door and tries to free himself. Prisoner Zero breaks through the door and emerges as a man with a dog. The creature doesn't seem to be able to copy two voices at once, and both mouths bark. The Doctor says that the policewoman had called for back up. The woman, tells him that the radio is fake, she hasn't called for backup, and she isn't a police woman, but a kiss-o-gram. She whips off her police hat, revealing long, bright red hair. The Atraxi captain is heard: "Attention Prisoner Zero the human residence is surrounded" followed by "Prisoner Zero will vacate the human residence or the human residence will be incinerated" over and over. Back at the local hospital several patients in comas keep repeating one word: "Doctor". One of the people in a coma is a double of the form that Prisoner Zero has taken.

The Doctor and the woman go outside to the TARDIS, but the Doctor can't open it. It's repairing itself. He notices the shed which he smashed when he crash-landed. He licks it. The shed is twelve years old. He asks the woman why she had said six months had passed, when in fact twelve years had. In reply, she angrily yells "Why did you say five minutes!?" - in a Scottish accent. The young woman is Amelia Pond, embittered by the Doctor leaving her all those years ago. Prisoner Zero barks at the door and they flee into the street where the message from the Atraxi is repeated over and over, on all wavelengths throughout the world. The Doctor realizes this means that when the Atraxi are saying that they are going to incinerate the human residence, they mean the Earth.

The Doctor and Amelia investigate the transmissions, which are being broadcast across the globe, entering the home of Amelia's friend Jeff Angelo and his grandmother. They recognize the "Raggedy Doctor" from cartoons Amelia drew as a child. While in the Angelo's home, Amelia reveals that she is now calling herself Amy.

The Atraxi put the earth in a forcefield, preparing to boil it. The Doctor recovers and notices a nurse taking a picture of Prisoner Zero in the nearby park instead of the obscured sun. The Doctor announces he can save the world and tells Amy to help him or run home and say good-bye to loved ones. Amy slams the Doctor's tie in a car door, demanding to know his identity. The Doctor persuades her to trust him by showing her the apple she gave him when she was seven, still fresh. Amy releases the Doctor's tie and they run into the park.

The Doctor takes the nurse's cell phone and asks why he was taking that photo. Amy introduces him as her "sort of boyfriend", Rory Williams. Rory explains that the man Prisoner Zero is disguised as can't be there because he's in the hospital in a coma. The Doctor confronts Prisoner Zero, telling him that the Atraxi are scanning for non-terrestrial technology. He uses his sonic screwdriver to attract the attention of the Atraxi. Unfortunately, it overloads and burns out.

With the distraction gone, Prisoner Zero escapes into a sewer. Figuring that it would take approximately twenty minutes for the Atraxi to power up their weapons and incinerate the planet, the Doctor sends Rory and Amy to the hospital to clear out the coma ward. Prisoner Zero has beat them there and is killing all the conscious people in the ward. The Doctor heads to Jeff's room and uses his laptop to talk with all the "big boys": NASA, Tokyo Space Center, Patrick Moore, etc. Using Rory's phone, he writes a virus to turn every single digital display in the world into a list of zeros, uploads it to the web via the laptop, telling them to get it spread across the world.

At the hospital, Amy and Rory have gotten past security thanks to her kiss-o-gram outfit and his nurse's scrubs. They meet a mother and her two daughters who survived Prisoner Zero's attack on the ward. Amy phones the Doctor, who has commandeered a fire engine to reach the hospital, telling him Prisoner Zero is there The Doctor tells them to leave, but one of the daughters talking in the mother's voice. Prisoner Zero apologizes for getting it wrong again and chases Amy and Rory into the room the coma patients are.

The Doctor rams the firetruck's ladder into the ward's window and asks Prisoner Zero to surrender by removing its disguise. Prisoner Zero refuses as the Doctor's virus takes hold of the clock behind them and all around the world for all digital devices. The Doctor tells him Rory took pictures of all his forms and uploaded them to the Atraxi. Prisoner Zero uses the link it formed with Amy to take the form of the Doctor holding onto Amy's hand. The Doctor uses his telepathy to have Amy dream of Prisoner Zero's true form. Prisoner Zero reverts and is about to attack the Doctor, but the Atraxi catch him in a paralyaing light and begin to teleport him away. Prisoner Zero snarls ominously at the Doctor "The Pandorica will open. Silence will fall... Silence, Doctor. Silence will fall".

With the threat ended, Amy awakes. The Doctor then calls back the Atraxi under rules of the Shadow Proclamation. The Doctor heads into the locker room and changes out of his ragged clothes, replacing them with fresh ones. On the roof, the Doctor uses his reputation to scare the Atraxi away from the planet. It runs as the Doctor notices his TARDIS key is glowing - the TARDIS has recovered and is waiting for him. The Doctor dashes off to the rebuilt TARDIS to see what is in store for him, and his eyes open with wonder as he beholds the newly repaired console room. Amy runs back to her garden, only to find the TARDIS fading.

Two years later, the Doctor returns to Amy, who had been having a dream about the first time she waited for him. She angrily informs him of the time she has been waiting for him since his last visit. The Doctor says she's waited long enough, and asks her to join him as a companion. She initially refuses, but changes her mind when the Doctor opens the TARDIS doors. Amy forces the Doctor to promise to bring her back to Leadworth by tomorrow morning, though she doesn't say why. the Doctor activates the controls and they vanish into the Time Vortex. The reason becomes clear soon enough to the audience, though; her bedroom is revealed to contain a few partially packed suitcases filled with her childhood dolls and cartoons of the Doctor.... and a wedding dress hanging on the wardrobe door.

Not every person who worked on this adventure was credited. The absence of a credit for a position doesn't necessarily mean the job wasn't required. The information above is based solely on observations of the actual end credits of the episodes as broadcast, and does not relay information from IMDB or other sources.
          

Anthony Dickenson was credited as the "Stop Frame Director" during his interview on CON: "Call Me the Doctor", but he was not credited in the episode proper. He was responsible for the "Doctor's eye view" sequence on the Leadworth village green, which leads to the Doctor noticing that Rory was taking pictures of Prizoner Zero.


References

The Doctor

  • The Doctor says "What? What? What?" and "Wibbly wobbly, timey wimey" much like his previous incarnation.
  • The Doctor opens the TARDIS doors with a snap of his fingers for the first time since Forest of the Dead. According to River Song in the same episode, he will begin to do so regularly at some point in the future.
  • When Jeff states "You can't just hack in on a call like that." the Doctor responds with "Can't I?". This is the Third Doctor's same response and mannerism to Sarah Jane's and the Brigadier's protests when he first regenerates.
  • Perhaps due to his new appearance, the Doctor finds it necessary to prove to the online conference that he has the credentials to solve the problem, despite the fact the name "The Doctor" would have been well-known in these circles at this time (per DW: The Christmas Invasion, and other events).
  • The Doctor mentions "cowboys," a phrase used by his previous incarnation in DW: The Girl in the Fireplace.
  • The Doctor drives a Fire Engine.
  • The Doctor calls the TARDIS "oh, you sexy thing" and "dear", possibly referring to the fact he has known it for so long and it's very close to him. The later episode DW: The Doctor's Wife, however will expand on this by establishing that the TARDIS is aware of the Doctor's feelings and reciprocates them; she also adopts the name "Sexy" based on the Doctor calling her that. It's unclear whether the Doctor's referring to the TARDIS as sexy originated at the moment in this episode, or had been expressed off-screen in past incarnations.
  • One of the jackets taken from the hospital for the Doctor to try on is a dark maroon similar in style to one of the Third Doctor's jackets (see also Production Errors below).

Food and Beverages

Galactic Law

Earth locations

  • Gloucester is 30 minutes away from Leadworth.

Science and Maths

  • The Doctor uploads the "real" proof of Fermat's theorem, the formula for faster-than-light travel (albeit using "two diagrams and a joke"), and an explanation for why electrons have mass as a way to prove to the experts on the secure video conference that they should trust his advice about how to deal with the Atraxi threat.
  • The Doctor refers to Jordrell Bank Centre for Astrophysics, NASA, and the Tokyo Space Centre as three of "the big boys", as well as Sir Patrick Moore (playing himself). Unmentioned by the Doctor but shown on the conference screen are the ESA (European Space Agency) and CSIRO (Australia's Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation).

Music and Songs

  • The Ice-Cream man mentions that the song that was originally supposed to be playing from the Ice-cream truck's speakers was meant to be 'Claire De Lune' before the Atraxi had hijacked it.

Technology

  • The Doctor notes there is a perception filter around the door so that it is only visible out of the corner of his and Amy's eyes.

Theories and concepts

  • Prisoner Zero mentions that the Pandorica will open.

Story notes

  • The working title for this episode was The Doctor Returns.
  • Matt Smith revealed that there are five things in this story to look out for over the course of the series, the cracks being one of the five things.
  • The opening scene, which was released on BBC Red Button, was actually a pick-up. Not originally included in the final shooting script of the episode, it was written months after principal photography had wrapped on the episode. It technically had its own script, subtitled "Opening Sequence". At least two drafts were written, with the second being dated 17th December 2009. The sequence was in fact its own production. Unlike the episode proper, its producer was Nikki Wilson, its director was Jonny Campbell, and its director of photography was Tony Slater-Ling. Wilson received a credit of "special thanks" in the end credits. The involvement of Campbell and Slater-Ling were established by behind-the-scenes footage of clapperboards. (WC: Doctor Who Video Explorer)
  • According to Russell T Davies in Doctor Who: The Writer's Tale, Moffat informed him in January 2008 that he had begun writing the first episode of Series 5.
  • This is the only televised story starring a single incarnation of the Doctor to refer to the number of that incarnation in its title.
  • The episode included a sequence showing all previous ten incarnations of the Doctor. The vision of the Tenth Doctor is from DW: The Family of Blood.
  • The episode introduces a new Doctor Who theme arrangement, an unprecedented third by Murray Gold (not counting several other closing-credit and non-series arrangements). A new opening titles sequence is also introduced, along with the first on-screen use of a new Doctor Who logo. Other cosmetic changes as of this episode include a new TARDIS interior design, slight modifications to its exterior, and the introduction of a new sonic screwdriver.
  • This story reveals that at least some sonic screwdrivers are grown/built by the TARDIS.
  • Amy Pond is the first modern Earth companion since the series' revival to not be from London. In the Confidential for this episode, Steven Moffat says that London-set stories had become a cliché and this was an attempt to avoid it.
  • The TARDIS scene in which the characters are viewed through the central column mirror those seen in the film.
  • Prisoner Zero states that "The Pandorica will open", and repeats "Silence will fall".
  • In the final scene, the Doctor is standing next to a monitor in the TARDIS that shows a waveform. The waveform appears to be the same shape as the crack in Amy's wall.
  • To write the virus, the Doctor uses Rory's BlackBerry Storm (confirmed by Engadget-4/04/10).
  • The monitor in the new TARDIS console has a Magpie Electricals logo on it.
  • Like the Eleventh Doctor, the Tenth Doctor also had a distaste for certain foods: particularly pears. (DW: Human Nature/The Family of Blood)
  • Lots of speculation began concerning Rory William's 1990 badge date and how it conflicted with many things seen and heard on-screen (slim camera-phones, Facebook, Twitter, Bebo, and the very 2000s technology); however, Steven Moffat later confirmed that the badge date was a mistake that went unnoticed until after the episode aired. [3] The year of this story was later confirmed in Flesh and Stone.
  • When the Doctor and Amy leave her yard in the TARDIS at the end of the episode, the clock in the TARDIS is shown changing from 11:59am to 12:00pm, despite the fact that it is clearly night outside. This would not usually be notable (this *is* Doctor Who), except that an identical effect is observed on the clock in Amy's bedroom at the end of DW Flesh and Stone. Also in the same episode, the Doctor confirms that they "had been gone five minutes"; yet the time is the same.
  • This is the first time the Doctor doesn't use a mirror to find out what he looked like after a regeneration (as part of one of Prisoner Zero's forms was him).
  • The Eleventh Doctor continues a long standing tradition (which has had a few exceptions) of performing a large portion his first episode in the costume of his previous incarnation, picking out his new costume at the end of the episode.
  • This episode aired on the same day as the K9 episode, The Korven was first broadcast on Disney XD in Britain. It also aired on the same day that Regeneration was first broadcast on Network Ten in Australia.
  • On the BBC America broadcast, which was hevily edited down to fit in a 60-minute slot with commercial breaks, left out Prisoner Zero's important "Silence will fall" line, which may have confused some viewers because The Impossible Astronaut uses a flashback to that scene.
  • One clothing retailer reported that in the month following the airing of this episode, in which the Doctor declared that "bow ties are cool," its bow tie sales increased by 94%. [4]
  • The TARDIS control room from the Ninth and Tenth Doctor's era was restored and left standing for eighteen months after it was used in this episode at the request of writer Neil Gaiman. The set was used for the SJA episode The Wedding of Sarah Jane Smith and finally for Gaiman's story The Doctor's Wife. Production staff had to make up excuses in response to questions as to why the set was left standing. It has since been removed.
  • This episode contains a number of parallels with the story of Peter Pan. Both feature a little girl receiving a "magical" visitor who promises to take her to far-away places. In JM Barrie's original novel, Peter leaves Wendy when she is a child, promising to return every Spring, but he does not come back until Wendy has grown much older, while he remains the same age. Here, the Doctor promises to return for Amy in five minutes but does not come back for 12 (and then 14) years. In both cases the girl looks to her visitor as a way to escape an unhappy childhood. Perhaps most tellingly, the Doctor tells Amy that her growing up is something he'll "fix," echoing Peter's vow to "never grow up."

Production errors

If you'd like to talk about narrative problems with this story — like plot holes and things that seem to contradict other stories — please go to this episode's discontinuity discussion.
  • In the opening scene, there are several errors.
    • When the Doctor is hanging from the TARDIS across London, every wide shot shown depicts the TARDIS rotating, but whenever a close-up of the Doctor is shown, the background does not rotate.
    • When the camera initially looks down on the Doctor, the floor is at slightly different levels, but when it cuts to the Doctor pulling himself inside, the floor is all the same level.
    • The St. John's Ambulance logo is visible on the CGI wideshots of the TARDIS, yet on the live-action close-up, the doors remain as they have been since 2005.
  • On several occasions editor James Pearson mismatches footage of the same scene-parts, as recorded by different cameras or in different takes.
    • When the Doctor leaves Amelia for his TARDIS-stabilizing, five-minute hop into the future, Caitlin Blackwood's closeup shows her hair being whipped around by the TARDIS' departure. When Pearson immediately cuts to an over-the-shoulder shot of Blackwood watching the departure, her hair is totally unaffected.
    • During the Leadworth hospital rooftop scene, the Doctor progressively throws away a variety of neckties as he whittles the options down. The last of these neckties is yellow, which we see in a frontal mid-shot. When Pearson switches to footage taken from the side in a long shot, the tie is not present. When he again switches to the frontal mid-shot, the tie reappears. Later in the same scene, Pearson has a similar problem. The wide shot of the departing Atraxi vessel shows Smith reaching into his coat pocket for the TARDIS key. When Pearson cuts back to a close-up of Smith, he hasn't yet reached into his pocket, and it takes several seconds for him to complete the same action from that angle.The Doctor's hair switches from being swept back to hanging in front of his forehead. Several times when the hair is in front of his forehead, the number and size of strands also changes. Also, when he has Yoghurt smeared on his chin it vanishes after the shot changes.
    • When the Doctor slaps himself in the forehead exclaiming "I missed it! I saw it and I missed it!", he ends up with a red mark, but when the camera cuts to the close-up, the red mark has vanished.
    • In the final TARDIS scene, The Doctor obtains his new Sonic Screwdriver, throws it and pockets it. However, when Amy asks The Doctor "why her", when he responds we can see him still putting it in his pocket.
  • When Prisoner Zero takes the form of the mother with two daughters, the older, longer haired girl always appears to the right of the mother. When the Doctor crashes the fire engine's ladder through the window and Prisoner Zero looks on, the two girls have switched places.
  • When Prisoner Zero walks out of the "extra room" in Amy's house, the doorway that he eventually walks through has its door closed yet when we flick to Prisoner Zero looking at the Atraxi's voice booming out we see that the door has magically disappeared and Prisoner Zero walks through.
  • During the final scene inside the TARDIS we see close-up views of The Doctor's hands turning three joysticks and typing on the typewriter. You can clearly see that his tweed jacket has mysteriously changed pattern, becoming the pattern that is not shown again until Victory of the Daleks.
  • Some of the aliens shown in the Atraxi projection on the Leadworth hospital speech scene weren't encountered on Earth, like the Hath and Vashta Nerada, for example. Also, the image when the Cybermen crash through the window was from DW: Rise of the Cybermen which was in Pete's World, not ours.
  • Whilst the Atraxi shows all the aliens which invaded Earth via hologram, it shows the Ood, which never invaded that planet.
  • When the Atraxi is scanning the Doctor, the camera from behind shows his head tilted but when the camera view switches to in front of the Doctor, his head is straight up.
  • When the Atraxi first starts scanning the Doctor, from the camera behind the Doctor, the scanner light is halfway down his body, but when it switches to in front of him, it's just then going by his head.
  • When the Doctor rushes out to stabilize the TARDIS, Amelia says, "But, it's just a box. How can a box have engines?" The word engines is unusually loud.
  • When the Doctor is talking to the Atraxi on the roof of the Leadworth Hospital, he has a bunch of ties on his shoulder. The one he eventually chooses (a maroon bow tie) is never seen on his shoulder in the scene before he walks through the projection. However, Rory has been holding The Doctor's coat while he discards ties. The Doctor then retrives his coat off camera. It is possible Rory also had the bow tie with the multiple coats in his hands.
  • During the Doctor's conversation with the Atraxi, Rory is standing behind him holding a selection of jackets. As the Atraxi are reviewing the various incarnations of the Doctor, one of the jackets (a dark reddish brown jacket) can be seen on the ground to Rory's left. When the Doctor says the line "Hello, I'm the Doctor", the coat is still on the ground, but the scene immediately cuts to a closeup with Rory still holding the jacket in his arms.
  • During the final scene, when The Doctor appears to switch off the monitor, it cuts from a close up of the monitor, to a wider angled shot of the Doctor standing at the monitor for a single frame, but then cuts for a single from back to the monitor before going back to the shot of the Doctor.

DVD/Blu-ray-exclusive scene

The 2010 DVD and Blu-ray release of the Complete Series 5 included an additional scene from The Eleventh Hour. Contrary to many reviews and video-sharing site repostings of the scene, it is not a deleted scene, but rather a scene shot specifically for the DVD/Blu-ray release sometime during the later stages of Series 5 production. The comedic scene links the events of The Eleventh Hour with that of The Beast Below as Amy endlessly hammers the Doctor with questions about the logistics of the TARDIS, as well as mocking his decision to wear a bow tie, even at one point wondering if it might be a "cry for help". The Doctor replies, "Bow ties are cool".

The scene ends with the Doctor playfully pushing Amy out into the air bubble surrounding the TARDIS, which leads directly into the first scene of The Beast Below in which Amy is seen floating above the TARDIS, the Doctor holding her by the ankle (although this is not clear to those viewing the scene without the benefit of knowing how The Beast Below begins).

International broadcasts

The Eleventh Hour received its international broadcast debut on 17th April 2010 when both BBC America in the US and Space in Canada broadcast it, followed by ABC1 in Australia on 18th April.

However, it had several pre-broadcast public screenings in North America prior to its official broadcast launch. On the west coast, it premièred on 3rd April at WonderCon in San Francisco.[2] Its east coast debut was on 14th April 2010 at the Village East Cinema in Manhattan. This latter screening was sponsored by BBC America, and was attended by Matt Smith, Karen Gillan and Steven Moffat, who fielded questions after the showing.[6] An additional showing occurred on 16th April at the C2E2 convention in Chicago. In addition there were also press screenings, such as the Canadian one held in Toronto 8th April after which Moffat participated in a Q&A via Skype.
