Sarah (Aisling Bea) owns and runs ELF storage, and Nick (Adjani Salmon) is a customer who visits his unit every year on New Year's Eve. This year, however, their night turns out to be a little different than planned...

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Julie Gardner has said that when David Tennant was approached to play the Tenth Doctor, he was immediately enthusiastic. His first response was to ask, "Can I have a long swishy coat?"
    • Quotes

      [series 1 trailer]

      The Ninth Doctor: Do you wanna come with me? 'Cause if you do then I should warn you, you're gonna see all sorts of things. Ghosts from the past; Aliens from the future; the day the Earth died in a ball of flame; It won't be quiet, it won't be safe, and it won't be calm. But I'll tell you what it will be: the trip of a lifetime.

    • Crazy credits
      During the first series, Christopher Eccleston is credited as "Doctor Who", as set in the Classic Series. Beginning with the second series - reportedly at the behest of the show's new star, David Tennant - the credit has been changed to read "The Doctor".
    • Alternate versions
      In series 5, Amy has a prologue that only exists in syndicated versions and isn't present in the original UK airings. It doesn't appear on home media (DVD) either.

    Series 1 to 10 only
    One of my favourite shows growing up, but has deffinetly gone down hill in series 10, and I nevwr watched it past Capaldi's departure from the show, so I only base my rating on that segment of the show (2005 - 2017)
