8 Times Doctor Who Did Its Bit For Charity

1. The Curse Of Fatal Death

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Do-wDPoC6GM Because Doctor Who charity sketches don't get much better than this! Another classic Steven Moffat offering here (seriously, the Moff just loves doing his bit for charity, doesn't he?) which starred British screen veterans Rowan Atkinson, Richard E. Grant, Jim Broadbent, Hugh Grant and Joanna Lumley as the Ninth, Tenth, Eleventh, Twelfth and Thirteenth Doctors. What more could you possibly want? It's the multi-Doctor adventure to end them and The Curse of Fatal Death, which was premiered during the Red Nose Day telethon festivities back in 1999, turned out to be so good that it's generally the only 'parody' that has been openly accepted by the show's fandom. It was even heavily featured in Doctor Who Magazine, and given its own extensive behind the scenes section on the show's official website, which ultimately gave fans a reason to believe again as it had been slim pickings in the Doctor Who department owing to the fact that the series had at this point been off air for nearly 10 years. 10 long and lonely years... As such, The Curse of Fatal Death is often cited as the bridge between the Classic and revived series. It's not canon, of course (the Ninth Doctor was played by Christopher Eccleston, not Mr Bean!), but it's certainly the next best thing. What did you think of this list?
