After ''[[Doctor Who]]'' successfully revived, the BBC has twice made seven-minute shorts to be aired during Children in Need. The first was [[Doctor Who/2005 Ci NS Doctor Who Children in Need/Recap|a transition]] from "[[Doctor Who/NS/Recap/S1 E13 The Parting of the Ways|The Parting of the Ways]]" to "[[Doctor Who/2005 CS the Christmas Invasion/Recap|The Christmas Invasion]]" (2005); the second, "[[Doctor Who/2007 Ci NS Time Crash/Recap|Time Crash]]" (2007) is a meeting of the Tenth Doctor ([[David Tennant]]) and the Fifth Doctor ([[Peter Davison]]) which also explains the transition from "[[Doctor Who/NS/Recap/S3 E13 Last of the Time Lords|Last of the Time Lords]]" to "[[Doctor Who/2007 CS Voyage of the Damned/Recap|Voyage of the Damned]]". In 2006, 2008, 2009, and 2010 they instead aired excerpts from the upcoming [[Christmas Episode|Christmas Specials]]. In 2011 this was preceded by [http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/dw/news/bulletin_111119_03/Watch_the_Doctor_on_Children_in_Need blatant fanservice].
 
They'd previously done one in 1993 ("[[Doctor Who/Recap/30th AS Dimensions in Time|Dimensions In Time]]", written off as [[Canon Dis ContinuityDiscontinuity|non-canon]] by the [[Doctor Who Expanded Universe]] <ref>(the [[Virgin New Adventures]] ''First Frontier'' wrote it off as [[All Just a Dream]])</ref> and much later by "[[Doctor Who/NS/Recap/S2 E12 Army of Ghosts|Army of Ghosts]]" <ref>(by means of [[Mutually Fictional]])</ref>.) to celebrate the show's 30th Anniversary. Due to contract thingies, this will probably never be aired again or turn up on DVD...not that the fans of either show would mind. The [[Milestone Celebration|20th-Anniversary special]] "[[Doctor Who/20th AS the Five Doctors/Recap|The Five Doctors]]" aired on the night in 1983.
