Doctor Who at the Proms ( 2010 ) The 2010 Doctor Who at the Proms was broadcast in September 2010 . It was the second " Doctor Who " - related Prom . Synopsis . For the second time since its revival , " Doctor Who " s music will be enjoyed by numerous fans since the previous Proms in 2008 . Everyone ' s favourite monsters are here ! Nothing else to do but hang on for the ride , and see where you end up . Programme . Skit . A message from the Doctor interrupts Karen Gillan , who is trying to introduce ' Amy ' s Theme ' . The Doctor asks the audience to yell " Hello , Doctor " so he can lock onto their signal . He gets a clear picture , but upside down . The Doctor tells everyone to hang on , makes fun of people wearing wigs and urges ladies to hold their skirts down . He realises his screen is upside down and fixes it and then asks for one more " Hello , Doctor " because he likes being given a big greeting . The Doctor explains that he has ended up in the Royal Albert Hall in 2207 ( possibly meaning 10 : 07 PM instead of a year ) when the show is almost over and the TARDIS then transported him to an unknown location . The TARDIS has locked on to an overloading fold - back quazar engine , which has gone into overdrive , and is only deadly when it starts beeping . It starts beeping slowly , which the Doctor dismisses as a high - pitched beeping is the warning . It then beeps in a higher tone . The Doctor says that as long as he has his sonic screwdriver , he doesn ' t have to worry and takes out a toothbrush by mistake . Angry with himself for doing that again . The Doctor decides he has to find a safer place to defuse the bomb and has the audience bid him farewell . To the audience ' s shock , the Doctor emerges into the Albert Hall . He is equally surprised , then tells the audience there is nothing to worry about so long as the beeping does not stop ; it will detonate from the slightest vibration then . The beeping stops , forcing him to briefly abandon the engine . However , it does not detonate and the Doctor picks it up and heads into the crowd . He looks for someone to help , but refuses to have an adult help as they might hit him . The Doctor takes a boy named Ellis from his seat . He picks a wire from the engine and asks Ellis if he can see it , which says he can . The Doctor is surprised by how sharp he is and explains that the wire he ' s holding is psychic wire , which is so thin that its practically imaginary . He compliments the boy again , saying he ' s " one step ahead of the game " . He has Ellis hold the wire in his hand , then in his mouth to save his hand . The Doctor has Ellis keep his head still and is taken aback by how serious Ellis is taking this when he doesn ' t giggle at the mention of doing so for comical effect . This makes the audience cheer . The Doctor goes on about how ridiculous his plan seems . He needs to use Ellis as a biological transducer in order to disperse the engine ' s energy through the Wi - Fi in the hall to deactivate it . Before he can finishing gloating , the Doctor has to perform his task by the wooshing engine . The Doctor informs the audience that he has saved the Royal Albert Hall . He thanks Ellis and returns him to his seat and asks for his name . He has the crowd cheer for Ellis before continuing about side - effects . He warns Ellis that he may have a sore throat in the morning , and " develop x - ray vision and turn into a giant bird ; but that rarely happens . " At first , the Doctor tells everyone there are no side - effects , then says " Unless you have your mobile phone on , in which case , you ' re going to die " ; ITV had also been ' blown off the air ' . He leaves after reading a pamphlet and insulting Matt Smith for having a ' dull name ' and wishing the audience a good night . Crew . " to be added " Notes . Ratings .
