Doctor Who - Season 8

They've spelt incidentally wrongly as well.

That's obviously deliberate just to piss people off

Bloody Moffat.

And here, for posterity - is the brilliant David Bradley recreating the Christmas bit

I've only just realised - David Bradley plays the ageing vampire hunter in The Strain too!  I knew I recognised him when I saw him swinging his silver cane about, but couldn't think where from.

He's the splendidly despicable Walder Frey in Game of Thrones, too.

David Bradly should be given the elixir of life so we can enjoy his unique blend of grumpy yet loveable old fart for all eternity. Him and Maggie Smith.

I suppose there's sort-of one from the classic era: The Feast of Steven, one of the wiped episodes from The Daleks' Masterplan in the Hartnell era. But yes, the first modern one is the first Tennant one.

Good call - the episode where Hartnell looked into the camera and wished the viewers a Happy Christmas!

What's most disorienting is that that soundbite was used at the start of the BBC's 'Merry Christmas' trailer this year - a snatch of dialogue from a 49 year old program that is also missing...

That episode was never telerecorded, which makes it officially the most missingest missing episode.
