You Might Be In BBC America’s Next Doctor Who Special. Yes, You

Hey, you wanna be in BBC America’s Doctor Who all-star celebrity Christmas special, Doctor Who: Best of the Christmas Specials, featuring Chris Hardwick and set to air on Christmas eve? OF COURSE YOU DO.

Here’s how you can make that happen: Answer any of these questions in a witty, clever, festive video. Post it on YouTube as a response video (which, if you’ve never done one, you can do according to the handy instructions linked here). Do that, and your video might just appear on the show or online along with celebrity Whovians providing their own answers.

Wait, what questions? Oh, right. THESE questions:

  • Would you rather go sleigh riding with a Dalek or make snow angels with an Ood?
  • Would you rather ride with Santa in his sleigh or The Doctor in his TARDIS?
  • Would you rather find yourself under mistletoe with a Weeping Angel or The Silence?
  • Would you rather spend Christmas traveling with the Doctor or relaxing at home with Amy and Rory?
  • Would you rather eat fish fingers and custard or a traditional Christmas dinner?
  • Would you rather see Santa Claus come down your chimney or the Doctor land in your yard?
  • Would you rather find a Sonic Screwdriver in your stocking or a TARDIS under your Christmas tree?

 

Again, the instructions for response videos on YouTube, should you need them, are available by clicking here.

Good luck, get moving (I don’t know what the deadline is, but you gotta figure that the earlier you post, the better, what with all the editing and stuff they have to do), and visit our friends at BBC America’s Doctor Who Tumblr, Doctor Who site, or on Twitter.

  4. Oh, I am definitely doing this! I wonder if I should shoot greenscreen so they can animate a bunch of stuff in the background like they do.

  5. Shirley says:

    Right, well I’m just going to have to enter this. I don’t care I live in England, its Dr Who!!!!! Thank goodness none of the questions involved Cybermen – they terrify me, and they killed Adrik on my birthday!

  6. -Di. says:

    I have the best idea evah…..I just need to execute it. This is going to be sooooo much fun.

  7. JW says:

    @TopgunGWC

    YOU DID IT!!!!! You posted a comment so crazy, so ridiculous, and so unbelievable that I realized you MUST be joking, even before I read “just kidding”! Truly this is an internet first!

  8. JesseG says:

    You fools. None of us will win. Chris wants it too bad to let any of us really have a chance. He’ll go through the motions for now, but it’s a sure thing all your videos will mysteriously ‘disappear’ before they get submitted to the BBC…and suddenly, on the Christmas Special, we’ll be seeing Mr. Hardwick.

    I’d be okay with that. I don’t want to enter anyway.

  9. Sarah says:

    Oh, @TopGunGWC, you just made me LOLZ all over the place. What a mess!

  10. Chad H says:

    Lol haha might have to post something to youtube. Love that you are still doing Doctor stuff for BBCA. Surprise show from Mr. Watts, his cred went skyhigh for me when I found out he was a Who fan a few months ago.

  11. Kleineganz says:

    @Antilles You realize that @TopGunGWS was joking? (the “just kidding” kind of gives that away, in case it wasn’t blatantly obvious enough).

  12. Antilles says:

    @TopGunGWC

    You realize Doctor who is the longest running Sci-Fi show in history right>?

  13. TopgunGWC says:

    Chris Hardwick, you incredible sellout !! I love how you jump on this Doctor-Who-Flash-In-The-Pan-Bandwagon. Sure, it’s all new and a hot topic right now, but do you really think this Doctor Who series crap will have any legs?? Of course not! Everyone knows that British TV BLOWS !! This TV series WILL. NEVER. LAST. Come talk to me in 48 years and we’ll see if anyone’s even HEARD OF IT. You SUCK !

    Just kidding btw.Best of luck with everything, Big C.

    -Riding with Dalek as the Ood always have to hold their translation sphere thus only allowing them to create a snow angel with one wing which would be a piss poor snow angel.
    -This is of course a trick question as all of us know that Santa is a Fictional Character
    -Any action under the mistletoe is still action. Though, it would be nice if the Silence would wear a dress once in a while.
    -Relaxing with an attractive Ginger whose husband has been killed several times and has come back, is thousands of years old and whom caries a sword? I’ll take my chances with the Doctor.
    -As a traditional Christmas dinner usually involves Lutefisk in my family, please pass the fish fingers and custard
    -I live in an apartment and we know that this fictional Santa hates poor people in apartments, I’ll go with the Doctor in our parking lot.
    -Considering my luck with technology I’ll take the Sonic Screwdriver. Much less chance of me destroying the universe…again. (I am really sorry about that btw

    Say goodbye to today’s work productivity! This is what I’m going to be working on the rest of the day.

  16. Sarah says:

    HOLY OOD BALLS (the ones they use to facilitate speech not the down there kind, GEEZ! Okay, I meant both. Happy??) This is AWESOMESAUCE!

  17. Sandra says:

    So, anyone, from any country, can respond to this?
    If so BBCA, let me love you down.
    My Canadian-ness is a burden no longer!
