Charity specials
Many special stories have been produced for charity telethons specifically Children in Need and Comic Relief.
Promotional mini-episodes and scenes
Sometimes, instead of a trailer, a mini-episode or scene will be made to promote a release. This is common practise by Big Finish Productions and the BBC blu-ray The Collection range which features a new mini-episode with every release. Sometimes a narrative trailer in the style of a special scene is released (e.g. Campfire).
In-character factual stories
Many productions have been made that are "in-universe" documentaries. Usually events from an episode told from the perspective of a fictional character from the series. These were made to promote the outgoing series at the time of broadcast.
