''Doctor Who Confidential'' is a documentary series created by the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) to complement the revival of the long-running British science fiction television series ''Doctor Who''. Each episode was broadcast on BBC Three on Saturdays, immediately after the broadcast of the weekly television episode on BBC One. The running time of the first two series was 30 minutes, being extended to 45 minutes in the third. BBC Three also broadcast a cut-down edition of the programme, lasting 15 minutes, shown after the repeats on Sundays and Fridays and after the weekday evening repeats of earlier seasons. Described as focusing on the human element of the series, ''Confidential'' features behind-the-scenes footage on the making of ''Doctor Who'' through clips and interviews with the cast, production crew and other people, including those who have participated in the television series over the years of its existence. Each episode deals with a different topic, and in most cases refers to the ''Doctor Who'' episode that preceded it. There have also been two episodes of ''Doctor Who Confidential'' broadcast apart from the showing of ''Doctor Who'' episodes: in November 2006 an edition subtitled "Music and Monsters" was produced going behind the scenes of a televised concert of soundtrack music produced as part of that year's Children in Need appeal, and on 3 January 2009, a special edition was broadcast to announce the actor chosen to play the Eleventh Doctor. In September 2011, the BBC announced the cancellation of the series as a cost-cutting measure. Fans attempted to reverse the decision using an online petition but to no avail. The decision was criticised by writers for the show and the incumbent Doctor, Matt Smith. In 2012, it was announced that small behind-the-scenes features would be released on the BBC's ''Doctor Who'' website to compensate for the loss of ''Confidential''. In February 2013, ''Doctor Who Confidential'' was voted the best BBC Three show of all time in a ''Radio Times'' poll on their website. On 20 August 2014, it was announced that a series of 10-minute behind-the-scenes featurettes would accompany the twelve episodes of the eighth series, under the title of ''Doctor Who Extra''. These featurettes were made available on the BBC's iPlayer and Red Button services.〔 ==Series 1 (2005)== The first season was narrated by Simon Pegg (who played the Editor in "The Long Game") and produced and directed by Gillane Seaborne, airing at 7.45 pm. In addition to being broadcast on BBC Three, each episode of ''Confidential'' was also made available for viewing on the ''Doctor Who Confidential'' website. Initially, repeat airings of the series were the full length episodes; however, beginning with Episode 6, BBC Three broadcast fifteen-minute versions, entitled ''Doctor Who Confidential: Cut Down'', containing only the new series-related footage. These more easily clearable versions – since they contained no old series clips or pop music tracks, there were few licensing issues to overcome for commercial release – were released on the Series 1 DVD box set. There are no plans to release the full versions of the episodes in any format. Two documentary specials were made for broadcast on BBC One, incorporating material from the Confidential episodes. The first was broadcast on the evening of the first episode, "Rose", and was narrated by David Tennant, prior to his being named as the Tenth Doctor. The second was broadcast immediately prior to the final episode, "The Parting of the Ways", and was narrated by Pegg. These episodes were not given the Confidential title, and are therefore separate from the series proper. Thirdly, a special DVD-only episode of the series, containing behind-the-scenes information on "The Christmas Invasion", was also made by the production team for release on the set. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Doctor Who Confidential」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
