The term Series 4 of Doctor Who is one that has several different meanings, making a precise and universally-agreed definition difficult. It is nevertheless generally considered the "2008 series". It ran from 16 November 2007 to 1 January 2010. It mainly starred David Tennant as the Tenth Doctor and Catherine Tate as Donna Noble. The regular series was preceded by Voyage of the Damned [+]Loading...["Voyage of the Damned (TV story)"], opened with Partners in Crime [+]Loading...["Partners in Crime (TV story)"] and concluded with Journey's End [+]Loading...["Journey's End (TV story)"], before being followed by a number of specials ending with The End of Time [+]Loading...["The End of Time (TV story)"].

Overview

It consisted of eighteen stories and twenty-one episodes. From a production standpoint, the series began with Voyage of the Damned [+]Loading...["Voyage of the Damned (TV story)"], continued to Time Crash [+]Loading...["Time Crash (TV story)"], and concluded with The End of Time [+]Loading...["The End of Time (TV story)"]. This view was amply supported by Russell T Davies in his memoir, The Writer's Tale, and by production code and production block numbering, and is how this wiki presents the series and information relating to it.

Subsequent home video releases suggested — by their very contents — that series could be considered as having begun with Time Crash [+]Loading...["Time Crash (TV story)"] and having ended with Journey's End [+]Loading...["Journey's End (TV story)"]. Additionally, while none of the non-weekly specials are given "series x, episode y" style numbering, Voyage of the Damned was listed on BBC iPlayer as part of series 3 (As of November 2023, Time Crash has no iPlayer listing). Whatever one's perspective, though, there was universal agreement that the regular, weekly portion of series 4 began on 5 April 2008 with the broadcast of Partners in Crime [+]Loading...["Partners in Crime (TV story)"] and continued through to the 5 July 2008 broadcast of Journey's End [+]Loading...["Journey's End (TV story)"]. It was the second series of BBC Wales to have received a BAFTA nomination in the "Best Drama Series" category, although it did not win, as series 1 had done. The four principal producers — Phil Collinson, Russell T Davies, Julie Gardner and Susie Liggat — were all named nominees.

The final two (or three in the case of Billie Piper) episodes saw the return of Freema Agyeman (Martha Jones), John Barrowman (Jack Harkness), Elisabeth Sladen (Sarah Jane Smith) and Billie Piper (Rose Tyler) to the main cast, accompanied by Noel Clarke (Mickey Smith), Camille Coduri (Jackie Tyler), Penelope Wilton (Harriet Jones), Adjoa Andoh (Francine Jones), Eve Myles (Gwen Cooper), and Gareth David-Lloyd (Ianto Jones). Kylie Minogue starred as Astrid Peth in the Christmas special Voyage of the Damned [+]Loading...["Voyage of the Damned (TV story)"]. Peter Davison returned to the role of the Fifth Doctor for the Children in Need special Time Crash [+]Loading...["Time Crash (TV story)"]. It also featured the return of Davros, the creator of the Daleks, not seen on television since 1988's Remembrance of the Daleks. Davros was recast and was played by Julian Bleach.

Broadcast milestones

Series 4 featured several milestones. It is the 30th broadcast season of Doctor Who, and features the 750th broadcast episode; The Stolen Earth [+]Loading...["The Stolen Earth (TV story)"]. The finale episodes The Stolen Earth and Journey's End [+]Loading...["Journey's End (TV story)"] also took the revived series to new heights of popularity, scoring the highest viewership ratings since the Tom Baker era and according to the media both episodes scored Appreciation Index ratings unprecedented for an ongoing scripted drama series.

In terms of production, the season marked the first production of a "Companion-lite" episode, Midnight [+]Loading...["Midnight (TV story)"] (as opposed to the usual "Doctor-lite" episodes, ie. Love & Monsters [+]Loading...["Love & Monsters (TV story)"] and Blink [+]Loading...["Blink (TV story)"]), although a Doctor-lite episode, Turn Left [+]Loading...["Turn Left (TV story)"] was also produced. This was necessitated by the need to film several episodes at the same time, including an unprecedented 15th episode, The Next Doctor [+]Loading...["The Next Doctor (TV story)"], which would air as the 2008 Christmas special.

Series 4 was the last time Davies, Collinson, and Gardner produced the show until all three reunited beginning with the 2023 specials. Collinson left after the regular episode Journey's End, and Davies and Gardner left after The End of Time, two of the five special episodes made after Journey's End. Before returning, Davies had no involvement in writing freelance for his successors as head writer, although he did contribute to the final scene of Chris Chibnall's outgoing story The Power of the Doctor [+]Loading...["The Power of the Doctor (TV story)"], and wrote stories for Torchwood, The Sarah Jane Adventures, the Doctor Who: Lockdown! event and a novelisation of Rose in the interim.

When the show resumed weekly broadcast in 2010, Steven Moffat became the head writer and executive producer. It also marked the last full season featuring David Tennant as the Tenth Doctor (he returned for the 50th anniversary, and, as the Fourteenth Doctor, for the 2023 specials) as, in October 2008, he announced his intention to leave the role following the production of the five specials; in January 2009 Matt Smith was announced as his successor, with Karen Gillan appearing as his companion Amy Pond.

From a retroactive standpoint, the series was also notable for containing two instances that foreshadowed the Doctor's eventual twelfth incarnation. The Fires of Pompeii [+]Loading...["The Fires of Pompeii (TV story)"] saw the Doctor saving Lobus Caecilius (portrayed by eventual Twelfth Doctor actor, Peter Capaldi) and his family from being killed in the destruction of Pompeii at Donna's urging, which would lead the Doctor to take on Caecilius' appearance in his twelfth incarnation, as a subconcious reminder to himself to always save people - no matter how impossible or "wrong" it might seem, as revealed in Series 9's The Girl Who Died [+]Loading...["The Girl Who Died (TV story)"]. Furthermore, in Silence in the Library [+]Loading...["Silence in the Library (TV story)"], River Song explains to the Doctor that a "future version" of him gave her her sonic screwdriver during their last night together at Darillium, this "future Doctor" would, indeed, turn out to be the Twelfth Doctor, and the events described would take place in The Husbands of River Song [+]Loading...["The Husbands of River Song (TV story)"], 7 years later.

The arc of Human-Time Lord Meta-Crisis that led to the Tenth Doctor wiping Donna's memories was also revisited in the 2023 special The Star Beast [+]Loading...["The Star Beast (TV story)"], with Catherine Tate reprising her role as Donna Noble, and Tennant returning as the near-identical Fourteenth Doctor.

Specials

Sometimes referred to "Series 4b," the "David Tennant Specials" and the "2009 Specials," five special episodes following the regular season were broadcast at Christmas 2008, Easter 2009, November 2009, Christmas 2009 and New Year's Day 2010. These four stories (the last two broadcasts were a single two-part story) were overseen by Russell T Davies and Julie Gardner, but long-term line producer Phil Collinson did not return for them. All starred David Tennant. For these, the Doctor was travelling alone, with each story featuring a one-off companion. Catherine Tate had a smaller role as Donna Noble in the final specials but was not billed in the opening titles.

There had been conflicting reports given as to why a year was taken off. Initial media reports suggested this was to allow David Tennant to perform a season of Shakespeare during the time a regular season would have normally entered production.[1] However, these reports were directly contradicted in Russell T Davies' book Doctor Who: The Writer's Tale, which has correspondence from the spring of 2007, months before the gap year plan was announced. Davies indicated the intent was to take the series off for a year, except for a few specials, to let the new production team make its transition. Davies had already informed the BBC that he would not executive-produce a fifth season.

Exactly how to refer to these specials is a matter of some debate. Aside from informal terms such as "2009 Special" or "Gap Year", it is known that Planet of the Dead was considered Episode 15 of Series 4 by the production team, as revealed by David Tennant in his video diary of the episode's read through, and The Writer's Tale - The Final Chapter shows the specials were all numbered 4.X. On the DVD/Blu-ray release of the four specials plus The Next Doctor (in a box set titled The Complete Specials), a bonus feature of deleted scenes was entitled Series 4 Specials Deleted Scenes.

Promotional trailers

Early Series 4 promo trailer

As with previous seasons, promotional videos were created to promote the season, though this year they were shown in theatres as well as on television in the UK. Of particular note is the second video that was released, which utilised unique, specially shot footage of Donna sitting by a camp- or bonfire talking to either an unseen individual or the audience about the Doctor "coming back to save us" and "I'll be ready" interspersed with images of Sontarans, Ood and Daleks.

The other major trailers included another Donna-centric trailer utilising a scene between Donna and Wilfred Mott from Partners in Crime, and a mid-season trailer focusing in part on the return of Rose Tyler in Turn Left.

Other Series 4 promotional videos

There were also other non-narrative clips advertising the fourth series.

On 8 December, a 90-second advert began being screened in Odeon cinemas, the music used was "The Doctor's Theme" and "End of the World" by Terry Devine-King.[7] After an exclusive cinema-only run the advert was released online on the Doctor Who website and YouTube on 14 December.
