Steven Moffat discusses Doctor Who Comic Relief special episodes

Steven Moffat, Doctor Who's head writer and executive producer, has revealed more details about the Comic Relief special episodes, which star Matt Smith, Karen Gillan and Arthur Darvill.

Moffat has written two four-minute mini episodes for the fundraising event, titled 'Time' and 'Space'.

“Two episodes. Two mini-episodes. Very, very small episodes – maybe eight minutes in total, so that’s around four minutes each. It’s not a spoof. It’s in the style of the ones that we’ve done for Children In Need, so it’s taken seriously as a proper bit of Doctor Who – funny, but not a sketch. A little miniature story. One’s called ‘Space’ and one’s called ‘Time’, so they’re Space & Time. And there’s a moment with two Amy Ponds in it. If you’re a red-blooded male surely that’s enough! You’ve got Amy Pond flirting with herself.”

The episodes will be shown on 18th March at 7.00pm on BBC One as part of the Red Nose Day telethon.
