Doctor Who: Time Crash (2007 TV Short)
8/10
Ten meets Five, the future Father-In-Law...
1 December 2014
Warning: Spoilers
When a young David Tennant watched Dr Who his favourite take on the hero was that of Peter Davison. As the then-current star, Tennant got the chance to work with him for this short and what does his character say to the man who would later be his father-in-law? You were my doctor. Inside references are the best aren't they?

So, what's this about? The Tenth and Fifth Doctors meet each other, that's what! If two of the finest actors ever to grace our screens coming together as the same character isn't enough to grab at you then I don't know what is.

"Two minutes to Belgium!" As in, an explosion the size of. The TARDIS can't cope with being in the same place as its past self and it's up to the two incarnations to stop that from happening. Doing so will separate the two again and Ten has some important parting words to Five first. It's great to see the classic doctors getting the respect they deserve. This probably led some young fans to investigate the older Dr Who serials for the first time and that's only ever a good thing.

Moffat delivers the goods again. Shame we couldn't see them team up for a whole episode.
