Doctor Who Prom (2008) Doctor Who Prom (2013)

The Doctor Who Prom 2010 was a concert showcasing incidental music from the British science fiction television series Doctor Who, along with classical music, performed as part of the BBC's Proms series of concerts. The concert was performed on 24 and 25 July 2010 at the Royal Albert Hall in London, and was hosted by actors Matt Smith, who portrays the Doctor, and Karen Gillan and Arthur Darvill, who play his companions, Amy Pond and Rory Williams.

Following up on the first Doctor Who Prom in 2008, the concert featured music from the series, this time alongside pieces by John Adams, Gustav Holst, Carl Orff and Richard Wagner.

An edited version of the concert, containing only some of the Murray Gold compositions, and none of the classical pieces, was televised on BBC Three on 6 September at 8:30pm and was repeated on 7 September at 2:45am. An extended version containing most of the music from the 2010 Doctor Who Prom, including some of the classical pieces, was broadcast on BBC Three on 10 September at 7:00pm. BBC America premiered it for the U.S. on 25 December as part of a "Doctor Who Christmas". A 1-hour edition of Doctor Who at the Prom was shown in Australia on ABC1.

An edited version is included as an extra on the DVD release for the Doctor Who Christmas special "A Christmas Carol".
