Doctor Who/NS/Recap/S12 E1 Bad Wolf

The casual viewer might be forgiven for assuming that he's ingested the wrong substances and is hallucinating a Doctor Who/Big Brother crossover, but no--the Doctor really has landed in the Big Brother house. He's as confused about it as the casual viewer.

Rose, meanwhile, has ended up in a Doctor Who/The Weakest Link crossover; Jack, in a Doctor Who/What Not to Wear crossover. The casual viewer may be forgiven for thinking that this is all rather meta.

But no: it's a Massive Multiplayer Crossover. All three have in fact landed in the Game Station, which the Doctor and Rose visited back when it was called Platform Five. It's 100 years later now, and the giant space station is now a home for more lethal versions of 21st-century reality TV.
