I’d place “Last Christmas” as a close 2nd, if only for Nick Frost as Saint Nick.
Anything with, about, or referencing River Song moves to the bottom of any favourites or best of list.
Maybe it’s cliche, but my favorite Christmas special so far is “A Christmas Carol”.
Love the singing.
Same here. It’s a goddamn perf Christmas pastiche
That’s true, it’s actually nice singing.
I think my favorite is the one with Santa, mainly because I think it’s a good Doctor Who episode
DOCTOR: Oh. My, God! Oh, it’s bigger!
RIVER: Well, yes.
DOCTOR: On the inside…
RIVER: We need to concentrate.
DOCTOR: Than it is…
RIVER: I know where you’re going with this, but I need you to calm down.
DOCTOR: On the outside!
RIVER: You’ve certainly grasped the essentials.
DOCTOR: My entire understanding of physical space has been transformed! Three-dimensional Euclidean geometry has been torn up, thrown in the air and snogged to death! My grasp of the universal constants of physical reality has been changed forever!
DOCTOR: Sorry. I’ve always wanted to see that done properly.
Such a brilliant scene!
