Review of The Man Who (Nearly) Killed Christmas by dema1020

This review contains spoilers!

This is a pretty excellent short story featuring The Second Doctor teaming up with Santa Claus. It is clever, fun, and a great creative take on a Christmas themed story. Much closer to what I expected out of the Christmas Treasury in general. I also love the reference to John and Gillian Who, which even gives a funny sense of "canon" to Santa Claus in the Whoniverse. Writer Mark Michalowski did a great job at bringing the Second Doctor and his eccentricities to life!
