Trust me, you'll love this.
Alisa Stern's fan-created series of Doctor Puppet videos have always been pretty well done, but this episode is particularly true to both the spirit of the season and the BBC show.

The BBC has released five new photos of the Doctor Who Christmas Special, "Last Christmas," and theyr're... okay? I guess?

Once bitten, twice shy.
Seriously, "Last Christmas," guys? That's not just adding fuel to the fire of rumors that Jenna Coleman will be leaving the show after this special.
