The past week we celebrated the 50th Anniversary of Doctor Who. No small feat indeed. Here at OneOfUs we were very pleased with the episode and you can read our review here.

But we had a lot of content that week in the celebration and in the vortex haze of excitement it was very easy to miss some of the equally great additional content that was provided as part of the celebration. So, here is a run down on everything in case you missed it or just want to watch it again.
