Doctor Who and the Curse of Fatal Death (Part 1/2)

Doctor Who and the Curse of Fatal Death is a four-episode special of Doctor Who made for the Red Nose Day charity telethon in the United Kingdom, and broadcast on BBC One on 12 March 1999.

It follows in a long tradition of popular British television programmes producing short, light-hearted specials for such telethon events.

It has a special status amongst Doctor Who-themed charity productions. It has twice been featured on the cover of Doctor Who Magazine - an unusual feat even for a regular episode of the programme. It is the only parodic story to be covered by "DWM Archives", a section of DWM normally reserved for discussion of past episodes of the regular series. Similarly, it is the only parody to be given an extensive behind-the-scenes article on the BBC official website, and its own video release through BBC Video. It is also the only BBC-commissioned live-action Doctor Who production between the Doctor Who television movie and "Rose".

This was actually Steven Moffat's first time writing for Doctor Who watching this you can see references to some of his later episodes: 3:17 - 3:21 " I made him say comfy chairs " 4:24 - 4:46 River Song

5:27 - 5:30 " She's Mrs. Doctor from the future "

Best thing Muppet has ever written. The beam locator reference is from Genesis of the Daleks, but most of you Nuvians probably don't know what I'm talking about.

Pryce is an amazing as The Master. I wish he played him in the official series.
