'''''{{StoryTitle}}''''' was a narrative trailer advertising the [[Series 1 (Doctor Who)|first series]] of revived ''[[Doctor Who]]''. It featured [[Christopher Eccleston]] in character as the [[Ninth Doctor]], with [[Billie Piper]] also briefly appearing in a new shot as [[Rose Tyler]], though she had no lines. Prior to the trailers release, three 10 second teasers, each focusing on a different character, began airing from [[8 March (releases)|8 March]] [[2005 (releases)|2005]]. The characters featured were the Doctor, Rose and [[The Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]]. Also on 15 March 2005, a second 25 second trailer featuring Rose began airing on [[CBBC]].
'''''The Trip of a Lifetime''''' was a pair of two promotional videos advertising the [[Series 1 (Doctor Who 2005)|first series]] of revived ''[[Doctor Who]]''. The first focused on [[Christopher Eccleston]] as the [[Ninth Doctor]]. The second focused on [[Billie Piper]] as [[Rose Tyler]].
 
In the video, the Doctor is depicted as running from a great explosion, implicitly the one that blew up [[Henrik's]] during [[TV]]: ''[[Rose (TV story)|Rose]]'', the first episode of the series. The Doctor's escape from Henrik's was never depicted in the episode, thus the video explains how he did it.
