The lovely and talented C. Robert Dimitri will have a full and properly thoughtful review of the Doctor Who Christmas Special up for you next week. In the meantime this is just a bit of celebratory eye candy. Mine's the cracker with the joke inside, his has the poem. Enjoy.
Because Rule #1: The Doctor Lies
Because The Doctor Danced
But He Still Doesn't Drink
Because Clara And Rose Have Similar Taste In Apartments
Because If He Can't Have Mickey Or The Tin Dog Or A Volleyball, At Least He Has Handles
Because We Almost Didn't Notice That They Gave All The Character Development To Handles Instead Of Barnable. Almost.
Because This Was All They Could Show Us Of Young Amelia Pond
She Actually Looks Like This Now And Has A Much Older Face Than The Face His Face First Saw
Because He Can't Just Press His Face Up To A Wall Like That Without Giving Me "Doomsday" Feelings
Because Now We Know The Doctor's Greatest Fear. (Praise Him)
Because, What, Is This A Harry Potter Joke?
Because I Don't Get It
No, Wait, I Do
Because I'm Excited For These Two To Meet
Because Of Wigs
Because Moffat Really Loves Those Angels
Because It Wouldn't Be Who Without Crackpot Theories. Theory #1: Clara's Grandma Is Amy Pond. Rubbish.
Theory #2: Tasha Lem Is River Song. Intriguing Balderdash.
Because He May Have Said A Bunch Of Stuff About Kidneys And Color, But All I Heard Was...
Because I'm Not Really Sure What "Breaking Science" Means. Is It Like Breaking Bad?
Because Who Ever Thought That A Line From "Dinosaurs On A Spaceship" Would Be So Prophetic?
Because This Was A Lovely Send-Off
(Though I Did Miss Seeing This Guy)
Because Bow Ties Were Cool
But 12 Is More Of A Cravat Man
Because As Winkingly Meta Last Lines Go This Was Almost The Best
Almost.*
