The TARDIS lands in the future* year 2025, so catch it while you can!
Then Winter 1963, for snowball fights, frozen lakes and evil monsters
But also love, heartbreak and reunion.
Gorgeousness from the lovely @roygill.bsky.social**

Of my three most Christmassy Doctors, the grouch who throws everything he has into saving someone else and discovers joy all over again:
Peter Capaldi’s Twelve has always played Scrooge.

*Not Whamageddon! But there is an OTD Who song. You have been warned.

Pelting rain
Howling wind
(One reason I have massive headphones is to clamp cap securely on head. Turned a corner, roaring wind tore both off my head and I just managed to catch them)
Now very tired, so imagine what today’s OTD and #ChristmasWho should be, and see if you’re right tomorrow…

But also knackered enough and self-aware enough to know that there are days I may not be up to it.
So if you’re wondering why I’m doing a Doctor Who Advent Calendar but not exposing myself by numbering the doors…

Oh No It Isn’t!
Whoops! I forgot to Skeet Benny and Sarah Jane together.
I am ridiculously fond of this pair, so it’s a prompt to go double on (work with me here) textually one of the anniversaries of TV’s first Doctor Who spin-off.
One week of #ChristmasWho to go! Probably.

A Christie For Christmas (ish)
Snakedance, the #ChristmasWho that really means it (see last Saturday)
Neil Tennant
and The New Avengers!
As you can see*, the bright sun is my natural habitat.

I mostly mark Season 4’s 60th anniversary on 2025 Thursdays (date of 1965 Saturday transmissions, the most widely-broadcast)
But Scottish TV premiered ahead OTD, and today my #ChristmasWho choice just happens to be The Seeds of Doom…

On the eve of a Who-less Day—
RTD’s first Christmas special spoke to me as nothing else ever has, making me gasp with blazing, breathless hope!
Listen to me pouring my heart out (and eventually getting to the book) in Si Hart’s Library of Impossible Things.

The Doctor, Romana and K9 are on a mission from God—
Surprisingly, that’s where the fun starts.
A fairytale of two con-men, a small dragon, a very bad king and a threateningly White Christmas
However much you love the season, a 32-year-long Ice Time…!

Christmas wouldn’t be Christmas without—
A lively Edwardian house
An eerie piano phrase stuck in my head
Death striking on the hour…
By turns absurd, grisly and tragic. But that’s family Christmases for you.
“You are nothing. You are nobody.”

A Thames frost fair, lovable urchins (some even survive), and this Doctor *isn’t* the Scrooge:
Several Doctor Who stories have borrowed from A Christmas Carol
But when even a visit from the Spirit of Past, Present and Future’s police box doesn’t change them…

Doctor Who: The Daleks’ Master Plan – The Feast of Steven
This huge, tragic epic brings death, surprise siblings and betrayal (the best Christmas Space Walford ever had)
Yet offers us a selection box of planets and times
And one slice of festive silliness…

20 years ago, the second coming of Doctor Who (first of St Russell of Davies) opened in an ideal spirit, with visitations of Past, Present and Future and brought us – through time – a proper Dickensian Christmas come early
Probably still the best #ChristmasWho!

“MORE-PLUM-PUD-DING!”
Doctor Who’s first pop hit*
A particularly topical carol today:
Impossible demands
Inexplicably cuddles up to fascists
Surely it can’t be as bad as you imagine…?
…oh yes.
