The Doctor uses his intelligence and wit to defeat enemies and save civilizations, often with the help of a companion or two.

The Doctor has the ability to regenerate when he is near death, which allows the show to recast the main character whenever necessary.

Other episodes included in Doctor Who: Best of Specials [HD] include "The Next Doctor," which sees the Tenth Doctor team up with a man who claims to be a future incarnation of himself, "The Waters of Mars," in which the Tenth Doctor grapples with a deadly virus on a Mars base, and "Last Christmas," a festive special that sees the Twelfth Doctor team up with Santa Claus to defeat a group of dream crabs.
