Open All Hours was the episode of Doctor Who Confidential broadcast in conjunction with Closing Time.

The title is a reference to the 1976-85 BBC sitcom of the same name, in which Lynda Baron starred.

The hashtag #doctorwhoconfidential is shown on-screen at the start of the episode.

It featured a scene where Matt Smith and James Corden amused themselves during a filming break at night. The two pretended to be the Doctor and Craig Owens in front of a video camera with a toy Dalek action figure while humming the Doctor Who theme tune... and laughably tone deaf.
