Doctor Who Series 5

This is the discussion thread for the best sci-fi television programme of all time.



Series 5 of Doctor Who, also known as Season 31 for clarity over Season 5, began its run on BBC One on 3rd April 2010 — almost 21 months after the last episode of the previous regular series. It was notable for being the debut series for Eleventh Doctor Matt Smith, and for introducing new companion, Karen Gillan's Amy Pond.

From a production standpoint, the series featured the largest number of staff changes since the BBC Wales version debuted in 2005. By far the most publicized was that of Steven Moffat's replacement of Russell T Davies as head writer, but whole departments within the production got new leadership, as well.

Episode 1:The Eleventh Hour


The Doctor, without time to recover from his recent regeneration, meets orphan girl and new companion Amy Pond. Together they have twenty minutes to save the world from the Atraxi, a group of galactic policemen.

Episode 2:The Beast Below


The Doctor takes Amy to the far future,andStarship UK.The British people,adrift among the stars on a giant spaceship,in search of a new home.But there are secrets here,in the rusting corridor and clanging hallways. A masked figure,who knows The Doctor of old,begs his help,while Amy encounters the terrifying Smilers, and uncovers a secret so dreadful,no one can remember it...

Episode 3:Victory of the Daleks

From the terrifying future of the United Kingdom to one of the darkest chapters of its past- World War 2. The Doctor and Amy find themselves in a top-secret cabinet war room deep beneath the London streets. And there,gliding among the nicotine walls and Bakelite telephones, the Daleks are hatching their deadliest scheme yet. Only one man can help the Doctor - but whose side is Winston Churchill on?

Episode 4&5:The Time of Angels & Flesh and Stone

A two-part story. A crashed spaceship,a shattered temple and a terrifying climb through the maze of the dead - River Song is back in the doctor's life,and she's brought more trouble than ever he can handle. The last of the Weeping Angels is loose in the ruins of Alfava Metraxis, and the Doctor is recruited to track it down. "Don't blink!" everyone tells Amy - but as Amy is about to discover, not blinking might just be the worst thing you can do..

Episode 6:Vampires In Venice

In Venice, even danger is beautiful. The House of Calvierri has the whole city under its protection, but something is very wrong. There are blood-drained corpses in the street, something lurks in the canal, and the Calvierri girls are the loveliest in town, except when you glance in the mirror…

Episode 7:Amy's Choice

It's been five long years since Amy travelled in the Tardis with her mysterious Doctor – and when he shows up again, on the eve of the birth of her first child, danger is not far behind him. Amy is faced with a heartbreaking choice that will change her life forever.

In 2015, the most ambitious drilling project in history is under way. Dr Nasreen Chaudhry and her team have reached 21 kilometres into the Earth's crust – but something is stirring far below. Amy Pond discovers there's nowhere to run when you can't even trust the ground at your feet.

Episode 10:Vincent and the Doctor

Terror lurks in the cornfields of Provence, but only a sad and lonely painter can see it. Amy Pond finds herself shoulder to shoulder with Vincent van Gogh, in a battle with a deadly alien – saving the world has never been so ginger! But can even the Doctor save Vincent?

Episode 11:The Lodger

The Doctor faces his greatest challenge yet – a flat share! People are disappearing on Aickman Road, and the Doctor must solve the mystery of a staircase that people walk up – but never down.

Episode 12&13:The Pandorica Opens & The Big Bang

A message on the oldest cliff-face in the universe, a puzzle box opening from the inside and a love that lasts thousands of years…The fates are drawing close around the Tardis – is this the day the Doctor falls?

I like the look of this series, it has a season 1 vibe to it

Braden 27-03-2010 10:03 PM

I don't know why, but it feels more like a movie to me. It definitely has a different vibe to it.

Scarlett. 27-03-2010 10:07 PM

I'm glad no old characters will be returning, it feels like a new slate
