Overall: Not a proper episode, so no count
Airdate: 23 Nov 2013
Written by Peter Davison
Directed by Peter Davison

Notes

• This is a special written and directed by Peter Davison about himself, Colin Baker, and Sylvester McCoy’s attempts to get into the 50th Anniversary Special.
• There’s an absolute flood of cameos of classic Who actors in this thing, with an equal amount of in-jokes for hardcore fans based on canonical events and real life things, too.
• It was originally released as a viewable special on the BBC’s Red Button service.
• This was never released on any US physical or digital format.  Only on UK releases – I had to import it to get it (legally).
• The special can be viewed for free on the BBC website to this day (as of Sep 2023).
