This weekend
the BBC aired its annual Children In Need telethon, which
includes the best and brightest of their entertainment world
coming in to get people to donate money. A couple of years
ago, Doctor Who introduced David Tennant to the
world through a minisode in which Rose witnessed her first
transformation. That led directly to the classic The
Christmas Invasion.
With
the minisode Time Crash, the producers actually
add a little. If you haven't seen the end of the third season
(now available on DVD), this serves as a "lost scene."
It picks up between the last two shots of the third season's
last episode.
Steven
Moffat has written some of my favorite episodes, and with
this one, he pays homage to exactly why we get hooked in
the first place. You see an actor who becomes your
Doctor, and will be your favorite no matter what else happens
on the series. Tom Baker is it for me, though David Tennant
runs a close second. Who's Tennant's? You'll see...
