This was written by Helen Raynor and it was from after The Parting of the Ways and before The Christmas Invasion were broadcast, and the issue looked at the production design for Series 1. The latest issue of Doctor Who Magazine, which looks back on the New Year's Day special, is on sale now.

Right then. I actually feel pretty exposed writing this - really, it's weird - because I know every inch of this will be examined forensically for the buried treasure of Spoilers. And because Production Notes is a big responsibility! I'm stepping into Russell's shoes here, and they're big shoes to fill. Seriously. He's six foot six, I'm five foot two. So, no Olympian overview this month - more of an Oompa Loompa perspective...
It's a bright summers' day in the early twenty-first century, in a hotel, in Cardiff - and something strange and secret is afoot. In the lobby a discreet sign - 'BBC Wales' - directs a steady stream of quietly excited guests upstairs. We're ushered into a room with a long table in the middle - sheaves of paper are shucked from envelopes, chairs bagsied - and the purpose for which we have all been gathered becomes apparent. It's the readthrough of the first three scripts being filmed for the second series of Doctor Who. Readthroughs are the first time a script gets a 'mass' reaction, which can be pretty nervewracking - and for actors, there's the pressure of finding their way through a script with a whole roomful of people looking on. But the room is buzzing with a rightful pride and euphoria - David and Billie are astonishingly relaxed and confident, and clearly having a whale of a time. None of which stops me feeling like a parent at a Nativity play - a mixture of pride and anxiety, smiling brightly with my fingers crossed, mouthing the words silently along with them...
As a script editor, I'm sometimes asked what exactly is it I do - often by close colleagues, worryingly. For a start, the vast majority of my time is spent glued to a phone and email. I mitch off whenever I can to get down to set/location, because - well, you would, wouldn't you? Seeing it all come to life is the pay-off from having stared square eyed at a PC monitor for months, and talked yourself hoarse i

... keep reading on reddit ➡As I'm sure many long-time subscribers may be aware, today was the annual BritBox event Britmas. For those unaware, this occasion sees a deluge of classic Christmas specials land on the service. My original plan was to merely present this as a bullet point list (because seriously, we're looking at 36 uploads in a single day) but one huge surprise simply had to be highlighted first.
For those of you who've already seen my separate image post, you'll know what I'm about to say. For those who haven't, it's a juggernaut of early sitcoms. With zero warning, BritBox UK uploaded Steptoe & Son. And we're not just talking about the first couple of series either. No, this is the entire 8 series run between 1962 and 1974 (with the Christmas specials as separate uploads which we'll get to later). The BritBox UK team even went out of their way to include surviving telerecording versions of episodes so that every single one is accounted for. No corners were cut here. Seeing one of the earliest fully surviving British TV series fully available for streaming is a feather in the cap that deserves to be heavily promoted. Here is the official description:
- Steptoe & Son (BBC, 1962-74, 57 episodes across 8 series and 2 Christmas specials)
>Classic Brit comedy from the 60s & 70s. In the chaos of their Shepherd's Bush cottage, Albert Steptoe & son Harold run a junk business. But Harold is desperate to escape, though his plans never quite work out. Look out for a young Joanna Lumley!
And here is everything else that was added today:
- A Christmas Carol (ITV, 2000)
>A modern take on Dickens. Loan shark Eddie Scrooge has his local housing estate in a grip of fear, but on the night before Christmas he is visited by the ghost of his ex-partner.
- A Christmas Carol (BBC, 1977) - A rare adaptation by the BBC that only aired once and received a now-out-of-print DVD release
> A vivid depiction of Dickens' classic Victorian Christmas tale. The tight-fisted & miserable Scrooge gets a visit on Christmas Eve from the ghost of his business partner. This ghoul has come to show the old git the error of his ways.
- A Duty Free Christmas (ITV, 1984)
>Christmas Special 1984. 80s comedy. After much persuading, Amy agrees to spend Christmas in Spain with David. By a twist of fate Linda & Robert have also booked the same hotel - a perfect opportunity for David to carry on trying to woo Linda.

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
Do your worst!
I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂
This was written by Russell T Davies and it was from after Doomsday and before The Runaway Bride were broadcast, and the issue looked back on the Series Two finale, Doomsday. The latest issue of Doctor Who Magazine, which interviews cast members from Series 13, is on sale now.

##Companion Piece
Right from the start of Series Two, we knew that we had to write out Rose Tyler, and introduce a new companion - to use that opportunity to show the new audience the full, proper format of Doctor Who, first established way back in The Dalek Invasion of Earth, when the Doctor's granddaughter, Susan, left the crew; that life changes, the TARDIS changes, that the Doctor remains constant while his fellow travellers come and go.
To be honest, writing out Rose was the easy bit! Yes, we're so sad to see Billie go, but at the same time, there's an excitement about change. For Billie and for us. I'd known from the very start of Series One how to separate the two time-travellers, stranded in two separate universes, and with the contracts for Camille, Noel and Shaun Dingwall locked into place for Series Two... well, all we had to do was write it!
But the new companion? My immediate decision was that there would be two. A one-off Bride, to really hammer home the coming-and-going notion, and to take the curse off the tag of 'the New Girl', and then a proper, full-time replacement, to launch Series Three. That's the fiction side of it, but on the production side, there was another dictate - to cast a Great Big Talented Name as the Bride, to draw people both into Christmas, and into the 'new' format. And then, to replace Billie with... well, a complete unknown. (Terrible phrase, 'unknown', I'm deliberately using industry-speak - Freema's done all sorts of work in many different shows, and there must be lots of people who know her very well!) All of us, all the way up to Jane Tranter, instinctively said the same thing: it's got to be someone new. Billie Pipers are rare, if not unique, and any other young actor with a bit of a profile would have seemed, well, a bit Second Hand Rose. And besides, it's part of our job to discover new talent. The role of the Doctor's new companion could give someone a massive,

Nothing, he was gladiator.
Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
When I got home, they were still there.
