The Stolen Earth is the twelfth episode of the fourth series and the
750th overall episode of the British science fiction television series
Doctor Who. It was first broadcast on BBC One on 28 June 2008. The
episode was written by show runner and head writer Russell T Davies
and is the first of a two-part crossover story with spin-offs The
Sarah Jane Adventures and Torchwood; the concluding episode is
"Journey's End", the finale of the fourth series, broadcast on 5
July.The finale's narrative brings closure to several prominent story
arcs created during Davies' tenure as show runner. In the episode,
contemporary Earth and 26 other planets are stolen by the Daleks,
aided by their megalomaniacal creator Davros and a shattered but
precognitive Dalek Caan. As the Doctor (David Tennant) and his
companion Donna Noble (Catherine Tate) try to find Earth, his previous
companions Jack Harkness (John Barrowman), Martha Jones (Freema
Agyeman), Sarah Jane Smith (Elisabeth Sladen), and Rose Tyler (Billie
Piper) convene to contact him and mount a defence against the Daleks.
In the episode's climax, the Doctor is shot by a Dalek and begins to
regenerate.The episode marks the first appearance of Davros since the
1988 serial Remembrance of the Daleks; he is portrayed by Julian
Bleach. It is also the first Doctor Who appearance of Gwen Cooper (Eve
Myles); Ianto Jones (Gareth David-Lloyd); Luke Smith (Thomas Knight);
and Mr Smith (voiced by Alexander Armstrong), though Myles and
Armstrong appeared in other episodes playing different roles. Adjoa
Andoh and Penelope Wilton reprise supporting roles as Martha's mother
Francine Jones and former Prime Minister Harriet Jones respectively.
Paul O'Grady and Richard Dawkins make cameo appearances as themselves
as television personalities who attempt to assuage public fear. The Stolen Earth Biography, NetWorth, Height, Age, Weight, Family, Married, Son, Daughter
