| The Tenth Doctor meets the Fifth Doctor. David Tennant's Tenth Doctor is set to meet Peter Davison's Fifth Doctor in a special scene commissioned for BBC One's Children in Need. The scene, entitled Time Crash, was written by award winning Doctor Who writer Steven Moffat, and will transmit as part of the Children in Need fundraising evening on Friday 16 November 2007. "It is an honour for me to be able to make the connection between the Fifth Doctor and the Tenth Doctor," noted Peter Davison. "However, now is not the time for sound-bites. I can feel the hand of history on my shoulder, even if I can't do the buttons up!" Look out for more coverage on the site nearer the time - and don't forget to support Children In Need and donate on the night! |

| Counting down to the Children In Need special scene. It's not long now until Friday night - and Time Crash, the special Doctor Who scene starring David Tennant and Peter Davison. As well as Time Crash, written by Steven Moffat and directed by Graeme Harper, the Children In Need telethon will also feature the vocal talents of John Barrowman, who will be singing during the evening. In association with Children In Need, the Doctor Who website team will be doing our bit to support this historic meeting of two Doctors. If you're in the UK, you'll be able to catch the scene online for seven days after it's shown on TV, along with a very special behind-the-scenes featurette from the Doctor Who Confidential team. We'll also be running a mini episode guide, including galleries, a fact file and full credits. |
