The Doctor Appears (TV story)
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
The Doctor Appears, also known as Doctor Who appears in 3D in its YouTube upload, was a special Doctor Who minisode that was part of Comic Relief on 15 March 2013.
It was notable for having originally been performed live, before being recorded and broadcast. As stage plays are not considered valid on this Wiki, only the actual broadcast/webcast version is valid on this Wiki, as opposed any images or information that was visible to the live audience but not in frame in the TV version.
Synopsis[[edit] | [edit source]]
The Doctor appears onto a BBC studio, only to meet some familiar faces, and certain television series...
Plot[[edit] | [edit source]]
Claudia Winkleman and Dermot O'Leary are hosting Red Nose Day 2013, talking about Doctor Who. Dermot tells Claudia that he has a surprise for her and instructs her to put on a pair of 3D glasses. The Eleventh Doctor comes onstage, much to Claudia's delight. Dermot tells the audience about the fundraising, while Claudia chases the Doctor around the stage.

The Doctor Who series[[edit] | [edit source]]
- Winkleman mentions Matt Smith when talking about Doctor Who.
- When Dermot O'Leary tells Claudia that he's got a surprise for her, she speculates if it's a sonic screwdriver or a remote-controlled Dalek or an "original alien duplication unit from the 1971 episode The Claws of Axos".
- Dermot mentions that for the fiftieth anniversary, they're making a 3D episode.
- Another episode plays on a screen on the back of the stage.
Notes[[edit] | [edit source]]
- The story was never named on air, but was named when the official BBC YouTube channel released the video on the same day under the title The Doctor Appears...in 3D.
- In the YouTube description of the aforementioned upload, Matt Smith is interestingly credited as playing "Doctor Who", tying back to the classic form of credits for the actor portraying the Doctor.
- A clip from TV: The Snowmen plays inaudibly in the background when the Doctor enters the stage.
