Christmas Ident

I'm surprised no-one else has posted this, but courtesy of Cameron at GB/Blogtor Who, here's a link to the Dr Who BBC Christmas Ident.

And rather nice it is too...

Although I'm waiting for the first criticism that it's non-canon!

It's non-canon!

Awww. How lovely. Even incorporated the DW theme.

The windows are the wrong size. 0/10.

Spoiler:

Brilliant. And canon.

Fun!

You're right, C=O! It is non-canon. And it lacks the gravitas of the Hinchcliffe years. 0/10 Uncool!

(But then, no one ever listens to us Ming-Mongs.)


I thought that was very festive.

Well, that completely destroys the ending of "Waters of Mars". How can we expect to believe that the Doctor could take anything seriously after all that?

(am I doing the over-reaction part correctly?)

How amazingly festive and fun! A triumph!

Unfortunately, the TARDIS base is wrong, so 0/10 uncanon.

Those reindeer are obveously just part of the gay agenda. 0/10

Lovely, gorgeous. I feel all Christmassy...

not dark or gritty. what's wrong with serious stories like "Inferno" or "Logopolis"?

I'm not sure if flying reindeer are proper skienz.

If you look carefully, one of the reindeer does have an eyepatch...

Good news and bad news. The good news is that the reindeer in question was wearing blinders, not an eyepatch. The bad news? Well, this particular reindeer, wearing the blinders, was reported by eyewitnesses to have said, "The North Pole is a cold, high place, overlooking the Earth. It contains a secret, one we shall discover together." And this reindeer referred to his co-conspirator as "Nyssa".

Or the reindeer sneezed, one of the two...
