The iconic sci-fi series brings back its traditional Christmas special with Steven Moffat writing another festive episode full of timey-wimey twists and turns.
Doctor Who has become synonymous with Christmas thanks to the many memorable episodes that have aired during the holiday. After six years without a Christmas Special , Russell T Davies restored the tradition when kicking off Ncuti Gatwa ’s Fifteenth Doctor era. While Davies has written seven of the show’s Christmas specials, it’s Steven Moffat (who assumed showrunner duties when Davies first left in 2010) who has written the most and arguably many of the best Christmas specials.
He returns to pen this year’s entry and delivers another festive episode that’s equal parts whimsical and wistful. The latest season of Doctor Who introduces the Fifteenth Doctor, joined by new companion Ruby Sunday. Their first adventure begins with 'The Church on Ruby Road,' where they face powerful new foes and unravel the mystery surrounding Ruby's origins. The Doctor grapples with the aftermath of a unique regeneration event and battles enemies more formidable than ever before. 'Joy to the World' finds the Doctor traveling alone, having parted ways with Ruby Sunday (Millie Gibson) in Doctor Who season 14’s finale. While visiting a Time Hotel in the year 4202 – where every room takes its guests to other hotel rooms littered across time and space – he becomes suspicious of a man checking in with a briefcase handcuffed to his hand. As he is wont to do, the Doctor investigates and winds up on a timey-wimey adventure that sees him visiting Christmas Day 2024, prehistoric Earth, and several times in between
