The first time on the big screen, the two-part Doctor Who story 'The Impossible Planet' and 'The Satan Pit' is re-edited into a single movie with David Tennant and Billie Piper.
Doctor Who is coming to the Stephen Joseph Theatre on Monday 23 November, with The Satan Pit showing in The McCarthy. It's a bit of a special one: the two-parter The Impossible Planet and The Satan Pit has been re-edited into a single movie-length presentation, made exclusively for theatrical audiences. If you've only ever seen them as separate episodes, this is the first time they've been stitched together and put on the big screen.
On screen, it's David Tennant as the Doctor and Billie Piper as Rose. They travel to Sanctuary Base 6, a remote outpost on a planet orbiting a black hole, where an ancient force awakens beneath the surface and the crew finds itself trapped in a battle against an evil older than time itself. The whole thing runs an hour and fifty-nine minutes, so it's a proper feature-length sitting rather than a quick watch.
There's more to it than just the two episodes, too. The screening includes exclusive bonus material with previously unseen content, a brand-new interview with cast members, and behind-the-scenes memories covering encounters with the Ood and the terrifying Beast. If you're a fan, that's the bit that really makes it a theatrical event rather than just a re-run.
