Who at Home

Who at Home was a series of simultaneous watchalongs organised by the Doctor Who fandom, and spearheaded by Doctor Who Magazine writer, Emily Cook, during the UK Lockdowns, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Some former Doctor Who writers, such as Ronald D. Moore, Robert Shearman, Steven Moffat and Russell T Davies, contributed short home-made mini-episodes for these events, however these weren't officially recognised or supported by BBC Studios or ViacomCBS, and so are treated in the same category as Fan Films. However, the actual tweetalongs themselves came to be advertised on official Doctor Who social media pages, and so were recognised, however no-one from the current production team, apart from Anthony Head, participated in the tweetalongs.

First Lockdown
The Tweetalongs began as relatively small affairs, however, after the first few, the hashtags began to continually trend on Twitter, to the point whereby they received media attention. The Tweetalong which would've taken place on 9th May was skipped due to Vajahnari's Curse airing the following night. The fourth Tweetalong, for Evil of the Gaians, saw the first of these 'fan-produced' mini-episodes. It was written by Ronald D. Moore and was entitled The Story of Hetisha, and featured Terrance Hardiman monologuing from his webcam at home - none of these mini-episodes are considered canon nor valid by this wiki. Every single Tweetalong from then on, received one of these videos, often written by the original writers, and containing one or two original actors performing from home. The most notable ones include: In Loving Memory, by Paul Cornell, for You Can Only Time Travel Twice, whereby Caroline Quentin, as Barbara Deaconsfield, performs a tribute to the memory of Angela Jensen who has passed away and the tweetalong for Doctor Who: Endgame featured a short called The Doctor's Ashes which featured Juliet Landau, Clare Higgins and Claire Bloom reprising their respective roles, and spreading the Doctor's ashes, after the events of Doctor Who: Endgame. This is the only short shot on location, with semi-professional cameras, and not an actor's webcam at home.

Second Lockdown
Once the second UK lockdown began in Autumn 2020, the organisers of the event decided to restart the Tweetalongs. The first two events had short mini-episodes produced for them, but after a while, popularity of the tweetalongs began to fade and most fans lost interest in them. The tweetalong for Doctor, was the first since Past Tense not to have a specially produced short, and none since then have either. After Christmas 2020, the organisers of Who at Home ended the tweetalongs due to the lack of fan interest in them. Ronald D. Moore tweeted out afterwards: "What a shame! I have been able to enjoy DW more than ever, this past year, and it has shown how kind and gracious the Doctor Who fandom are - how much they have helped me come through the events of the past few years. I thank everyone so much, especially @Emily_Rosina".
