Sorry for not being more specific. I have a season pass type thing (forget
what they call it on Comcast) for Doctor Who. It automatically recorded
what I would call a "Special" a week or so ago, with interviews with a few
actors who have played the Doctor and various companions, and they guy who
was the voice of K-9. I guess the episode that followed some days later
"The Day of the Doctor" is itself called a "special", but to me it just
seems like the next episode of the show. What I am referring to as the
special summarized and focused on a few odd pieces of trivia that got small
shout-outs in the following episode (example: 10's informal footwear) and
also gave viewers who were not familiar with the original run enough
information to make sense of some of the things we saw in TDOTD, without
being too heavy handed about it. My son and I happened to watch the two
back to back. Having just watched the special I would not have guessed that
we were being force fed some information that would be called back to in
the episode.
