NEW MINI-EPISODE ANNOUNCED WRITTEN BY FANS
A special 3-minute episode written by young fans will be aired on BBC Three on October 1st.
'Death Is The Only Answer' was written by 9-11 year olds from Oakley CE Junior School in Basingstoke who won a competition held by BBC Learning.
Matt Smith said:
"It was so clever, we were all just bowled over, it was a brilliant script."
The winning script was chosen by Doctor Who showrunner Steven Moffat, the show's executive producers Piers Wenger and Beth Willis, and Controller of BBC Learning, Saul Nassé.
"I loved the shortlisted scripts, there was so much skill and enthusiasm on display that it was actually genuinely, very, very difficult to judge," said Moffat. "There was some really, really skilled writing. It was very exciting how they caught the voice of The Doctor and how they used the always stringent limitations of Doctor Who to their advantage."
