Smith and Jones is an episode of the British science fiction television series Doctor Who. It will be broadcast in Spring 2007 and is the first episode of Series 3 of the revived Doctor Who series. It also sees the debut of Freema Agyeman as new companion Martha Jones.

The title may be a play on the names of both Jones and the Doctor, who occasionally uses the alias of "John Smith", and is a reference to the comedy duo of the same name, Mel Smith and Griff Rhys Jones, as well as the American series Alias Smith and Jones.

Trivia

• It was rumoured by the South Wales Evening Post that in one episode, widely speculated as the first, an alien disguised as a motorcycle courier will transport a London hospital to the moon, leaving only a crater in its place; Swansea's Singleton Hospital was used to represent the hospital in filming. Speaking at the MOBO Awards, Freema Agyeman confirmed "aliens on the moon".<ref>Whiley, Jo (Host) (2006-09-21). The Jo Whiley Show (radio). BBC Radio 1.
