The Bells of Saint John: A Prequel +TV Trailer
The Bells of Saint John: A Prequel
From The Official Site
Doctor Who returns to BBC One on Easter Saturday at 6.15pm with The Bells of Saint John, but you can watch a prequel to the new episode this Saturday.
The brand new prequel is written by Steven Moffat and features the Doctor, played, of course, by Matt Smith. We join the Time Lord on Earth where he’s taking a break from his quest to find Clara.

March 24th, 2013 - 5:25pmDr Jake Young – Agreed 🙂
Tell you the truth Jake, I don’t think a lot of us fan’s ever really refer to a classic series story buy a paticular season, we just tend to say ‘classic series story’.
It’s also a bit confusing too cos American’s say season rather then series like we do.
DOCTOR WHO ONE
March 24th, 2013 - 5:22pmSounds a bit like a combination of the 2010 and 2012 versions to me.

March 24th, 2013 - 4:44pmnoticed at the end of the theme at the beginning of the prequel there is a new piece of dr who theme music. I wonder if this is a sign that we will get to here the full theme music?

March 24th, 2013 - 4:42pmeveryone from now on just refer to the classic series 4 as SEASON 4 and the 2008 series as SERIES 4!

The TARDIS
March 24th, 2013 - 11:42amNo, I know he’s wearing the new plumish suit but I thought that was the official costume
Tardis’nt
March 24th, 2013 - 11:11amhe might not go to 2013, like sebatron said, it could be 2020, or like what he did with amy and rory, about 2or3 years from now
Scott the Raptor
March 24th, 2013 - 10:47amIt’s not the same thing.
joe
March 24th, 2013 - 10:16am“official 4th series” is probably reffering to the classic 4th series.
Sebatron
March 24th, 2013 - 10:14amShe could be from the near future like 2020.
Sebatron
March 24th, 2013 - 10:12amlook on youtube and you might also find the full trailer for the episode like I did!

March 24th, 2013 - 9:45amO…yeah I don’t live in UK.Thanks.I wish I could see the video cause I love the doctor and Clara.:(
DOCTOR WHO ONE
March 24th, 2013 - 9:19amIt is if ‘Official 4th Series’ is referring to Doctor Who – Series 4 and ‘Donna Noble 4th Series’ is the same thing as Donna was the companion to the 10th Doctor throughout series 4.
DOCTOR WHO ONE
March 24th, 2013 - 9:17amIf you live outside the UK, it maybe that the video has been restricted in your country.
Typical I know, but it happens with most videos, thou it is odd that sometimes in the past, Ive watched videos have been restricted by the BBC for something like “This video has been restricted in your Country”, and yet I live in Great Britain where Doctor Who and the BBC both come from, it just makes no sense at all what so ever !!!!.

March 24th, 2013 - 8:40amDonna WAS funny!
sunny
March 24th, 2013 - 8:39amI love Clara but I can not see this brand new prequel.I don’t know why?
Scott the Raptor
March 24th, 2013 - 8:29amNo it’s not the same thing.
DOCTOR WHO ONE
March 24th, 2013 - 8:21amTardis’nt – What makes you think that ?.
DOCTOR WHO ONE
March 24th, 2013 - 8:20amSame thing.
DOCTOR WHO ONE
March 24th, 2013 - 8:16amSadly, I think the return of the Tweed was just a one off for this video.
John Smith
March 24th, 2013 - 7:39amWas not expecting that!
Dalek The Supreme
March 23rd, 2013 - 10:11pmI just new that was Clara! Also, I’m happy to see Matt Smith’s not getting rid of the tweed just yet, I think it suits his Doctor well. Can’t wait til the episode, even though it might not be all that good…
Sam Bentley
March 23rd, 2013 - 9:49pmI think this was filmed before the costume change was official? Like how in the Comic Relief ‘One Born Every Minute/Call the Midwife/Miranda/Doctor Who’ crossover he was wearing his series 6-7a costume. I just think this and that were filmed BEFORE they changed the costume.
Boodleoo
March 23rd, 2013 - 9:39pmI’m guessing Donna 4th series
TheMadManWithABox1
March 23rd, 2013 - 9:20pmApparanly Matt smith’s managed to get a hollywood movie role but is still not certain about whether he is leaving dr who, but tbh I won’t believe it either way till some proffesinal conformation is given
Doctor Stu
March 23rd, 2013 - 9:07pmThe official 4th series or Donna Noble fourth series
