We've got far too long to wait for this year's Doctor Who Christmas special so thank goodness for Children in Need (BBC ONE, Friday 19th November). Just after 8pm, we're invited to join Matt Smith and Karen Gillan for some fun and games in the TARDIS when they're paid a visit by some very special guests. And as if that isn't enough, they might even have an exciting preview of A Christmas Carol to show us, so don't miss it!
Doctor Who has a long tradition of supporting Children in Need and has been associated with the annual fun-filled night of fund raising for over twenty-five years. Back in 1983, even before Pudsey Bear had made his debut, Doctor Who celebrated its 20th anniversary by screening The Five Doctors during Children in Need and over the years cast and crew have made countless appearances during the event. In 2005 we saw what happened when Rose met the Tenth Doctor for the first time and two years later the Fifth Doctor joined the party as he featured in Time Crash, a Children in Need mini-episode starring David Tennant and Peter Davison.
But this year, Doctor Who's presence on the big night will be better than ever - hurray! It's all for Children in Need, of course, so please visit the Children in Need site to get great fundraising ideas, discover who benefits from your support, and find out how to make a donation. And to get you in the mood, why not download our exclusive wallpaper celebrating the Doctor's appearance on Friday's show!
