Doctor Who at the Proms (2010)

The 2010 Doctor Who at the Proms were the second and third performances of Doctor Who at the Proms.
They were broadcast live from the Royal Albert Hall on BBC Radio 3 between 24-25 July 2010 with commentary by Petroc Trelawny, forming Proms 10 & 11 of the 2010 season.
A 60 minute edit of the prom was broadcast on television on BBC Three on 6 September, followed by a 90 minute edit four days later on 10 September 2010. In addition to this a special 25 minute edition of Doctor Who Confidential called Backstage at the Doctor Who Prom ran on the BBC Red Button service. The 60 minute edit was also broadcast in high definition on BBC HD on 11 September 2010.
During the 20 minute interval, BBC Radio 3 broadcast the documentary Twenty Minutes: Dance of the Daleks, in which Matthew Sweet talked with some of the composers who had contributed incidental music to Doctor Who over the show's 47-year history.

== Notes ==
* Some scenes from this prom take inspiration from series 5:
** An Ironside Dalek offers the audience tea and biscuits, and an air raid warden commands him to "put that light out". Victory of the Daleks (Daleks vs. Spitfires)
** Two scenes feature a similar scene to the last one from The Pandorica Opens (I Am The Doctor & The Doctor who theme)
** The Doctor accidentally pulls out a toothbrush, instead of the sonic screwdriver. (TV: The Lodger)
* There is a variation of the Doctor's 'wibbly wobbly, timey wimey' quote (Wibbly Wobbly Explody Thing).
* The Planets Mars is played in this prom. The Planets Jupiter appeared in the previous Dr. Who Prom
* The Doctor mentions ITV has been blown off air.
* This isn't the first time a lone Dalek has commanded a conductor (CON: Music and Monsters).
=== Ratings ===
to be added
=== Filming locations ===
* Royal Albert Hall
* Upper Boat Studios
=== Production errors ===
* When the Dalek Ironside and Dalek Supreme are talking, the head lamps are the wrong way around so the Ironside was ordering the Supreme to prepare for obliteration.
