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!

Really enjoyed this one!

If there is one Thing that is hard to do with the second Doctor, it's the Fact that Throughton's onscreen Performance is a Key Part of why it worked so well. So it's no wonder that some Prose struggle with this, not this one, which I can only highly praise really!

Besides that, it's just a fun Christmas Story with some great Banter with the second Doctor and Santa Clause!
