This is part of a series of reviews of Doctor Who in chronological timeline order.

Previous Story: The Baby Awakes

This is probably the most festive story out of the bunch, the first time I've been able to really picture Christmas throughout this anthology. Joe is also an actual character here, he finally has some semblance of depth. His arguement with Peri was especially good. Luke Allen-Gale and Nicola Bryant's performances here are fantastic. This story is a very interesting character-piece for Peri, though the main goal seems to be set up for the next and final one. The Doctor is very much the side character here, he's just solving a mystery completely unrelated to what's going on with Peri. Speaking of the mystery, I do like the idea of a never-ending Christmas party and it was quite a fun setting for the story. The cliffhanger ending was not how I expected this to go, werewolves on Christmas?
