Doctor Who at the BBC: The Tenth Doctor

Doctor Who at the BBC: The Tenth Doctor was the 2007 instalment in BBC Audio's annual Doctor Who at the BBC CD documentaries. Presented by Elisabeth Sladen, this release followed the pattern of most of the others in featuring audio clips of radio and TV interviews and features relating to Doctor Who.
While previous releases dealt with primarily the 1963-89 era of the series, The Tenth Doctor, as the name suggests, focuses on the series between 2005 when David Tennant's casting as the Tenth Doctor was announced, and the end of 2006 and the telecasts of The Runaway Bride and Invasion of the Bane.
Although released annually since 2003, there was no 2008 issue of Doctor Who at the BBC; the series resumed in 2009 with Doctor Who at the BBC: A Legend Reborn.

== Notes ==
* The 2-CD set includes a false ending. After saying goodbye, Sladen is heard hiding behind in the studio before sneaking in the first instalment of "The Sarah Jane Adventures at the BBC", leading into the Blue Peter feature on the Invasion of the Bane special.
* The BBC Audio CD liner notes list some individuals such as Sophia Myles and Tom Baker as being heard on some of the clips, when they are not.
* During the Jo Whiley feature, several words are bleeped out (in the original broadcast) as they Whiley was recording behind the scenes of the filming of Human Nature/The Family of Blood. The word most frequently bleeped is "scarecrow".
