they are all here
However as the "christmas specials" are actually part of the on going narrative in most cases i think it should be argued that they are added to the end's of each season instead of the 'special' section, as they are usally the start / end of the season arc rather than a seprate thing.

Hello Notamymerrick, and thank you for your answer, Yes i think it is a great idea to add them to each season, and also episode like 'Time of the Doctor' and 'Day of the doctor'.
Could you tell me why it is not possible to me to add an episode manually ?

The Mods have locked the seasons, because they've confirmed it with the official DVDs. Normally they are pretty good with things like this though.

That's because Series are normally commisioned in blocks of 6, 8 or 12 episodes. They are different to a season, normally it works out fine but in Doctor Who's case they use the christmas special to contiue part of the arc.
The way it's commisioned The first christmas special is actually episode 0 of season 2, and so on.
On the whole it doesn't matter, but you are going to get people keep flagging this as a report.
