Did I forget to wish you wonderful people a Happy Christmas in my last email? I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. Happy Christmas to you all, and I suggest you keep an eye on the TV schedule and the iPlayer for Sarah Jane Adventures, particularly Series 1, there are some really strong stories in that. The charades seemed fun.....at times. The cracker jokes aren't even bad enough to be funny. And I will always count 'The Unquiet Dead' as the Ninth Doctor's Christmas story, but as you mentioned it is a story that just happens to take place around christmas time rather christmas being part of the story.

Thank you, Scardis. Happy Christmas to you too!

I saw all but one episode of Sarah Jane Adventures, season two. Missed pretty much all of season one (though recently saw Whatever Happened to Sarah Jane as an omnibus). They're well worth a watch, if somewhat 'Doctor Who Lite'. What with the iPlayer Fake Keith has no excuse!

Ah, The Unquiet Dead, an excellent story. Yes, I'd forgotten that was a Christmas story - presumably inspired by the old spooky Christmas stories that Gatiss has resurrected this year.

Also, I forgot to add a big thank you to Fake Keith for an excellent job with editing this podcast. Not an easy job, I suspect - we were all over the place!

All over the place hardly covers it - I am going to string Crumbly up by the nads when I get hold of him!

Happy Christmas Scardis and all you other wonderful people :D
