Episodes Comprise:
The Next Doctor: It's Christmas Eve in 1851 in The Next Doctor and Cybermen stalk the snow of Victorian London. When the Doctor arrives and starts to investigate a spate of mysterious deaths, he's surprised to meet another Doctor (David Morrissey), and soon the two must combine forces to defeat the ruthless Miss Hartigan (Dervla Kirwan). But are two Doctors enough to stop the rise of the CyberKing?
Planet of the Dead: Starring Michelle Ryan and Lee Evans, Planet Of The Dead was the first of this year's specials. When a London bus takes a detour to an alien world, the Doctor must join forces with the extraordinary Lady Christina. But the mysterious planet holds terrifying secrets, hidden in the sand. And time is running out, as the deadly Swarm gets closer...
The Waters of Mars: The Waters of Mars welcomes Lindsay Duncan as the Doctor's cleverest and most strong-minded companion. The Waters of Mars is a dark, scary thriller that sees the Doctor land on the planet Mars, at a base in peril. A creeping infection beneath the Martian surface threatens not only the human race, but also the Doctor's most fundamental beliefs. Together with Adelaide Brooke - the base's commander - the Doctor must stop a seemingly unstoppable menace before it can reach Earth, and wipe out mankind.
The End of Time: Part One: Join the Tenth Doctor for his final journey in The End of Time Parts One and Two, when his psychotic nemesis the Master has been reborn, on Christmas Eve. With both determined to cheat death, the battle ranges from the wastelands of London to the mysterious Immortality Gate, while the alien Ood warn of an even greater danger approaching, as a terrible shadow falls across the entire Universe.
The End of Time: Part Two: The Doctor faces the end of his life as the Master's plans hurtle out of control. With the sound of drums growing louder, and an ancient trap closing around the Earth, the Doctor and Wilf must fight alone. But sacrifices must be made, and the deadly prophecy warns: "He will knock four times."

This was one hell of a year for doctor who fans, a little slow as there was no full series but we have had some great stories in each of the episodes over 2009. The end of time was a fantastic feature length episode with a brilliant story, ending the series very well, David Tennant will surely be missed as he was a fine actor but from the look of things Matt Smith fits in quite well and should lead us into some quality new stories as the new born timelord! And from the looks of the trailer for next year even the Daleks set to return, I for one cant wait and will certainly be ordering this box set of the specials as must you!!
If you are a fan of the 10th incarnation of the doctor then this is the story that will make you cry. David Tennant delivers a fantastic last performance as the doctor with an emotional farewell to the show thank you David so much for making my life all the more special with your fantastic era as the doctor ! Cant wait for the next series looks great ! This blu ray specials boxset is the ultimate dvd farewell to the tenth doctor thank you play . com this dvd set is a definiate for any doctor who and David Tennant fan !
David Tennant's charisma has made the last few years of Doctor Who a fantastic viewing experience- even if, at times, the scripts, his co-stars and dubious plots have threatened to let him down.
Both the 2008 and 2009 Xmas specials here are brilliant, John Simm, Bernard Cribbins and David Morrisey are all exceptional. Elsewhere, Waters of Mars is a little dull and formulaic and Planet of the Dead was a CBBC rip-off of Pitch Black (In addition- who ever told Michelle Ryan she could act- she's terrible in everything)
