Just as we always get excited for the Doctor Who Christmas Special, we also jingle all the way with anticipation for a new Doctor Puppet episode, and this one happens to be Christmas-themed as well! Alisa Stern and all the fantastic artists and musicians that work with her on the web series have turned in another fantastically jubilant short. This time, the Twelfth Doctor Puppet and Clara are doing something particularly Christmassy: visiting a planet locked in permanent Christmas. “The Planet That Came for Christmas” is exactly what you want in your stocking.
In keeping with Doctor Who‘s Christmas tradition, this Doctor Puppet special is both festive and scary, with trees with ghost faces, a frozen time traveler, and a broken doll. Broken dolls are always the creepiest. But there’s some happy jolliness as well. There might be a few things as adorable as Puppet Clara wearing a paper crown, for instance.
Watch the rest of the Doctor Puppet adventures by subscribing to their YouTube page! It contains some really terrific episodes in which the Eleventh Doctor sees his past selves only to have them be pulled out of time by an evil, bearded figure… you can maybe guess who that is.
Best part = calendar. Woof.
