I loved this episode – it’s possibly my favorite Christmas special to date, even though A Christmas Carol comes pretty close. The overused dream setting was written by Moffat in a way that made it fresh and I enjoyed all the film references. The supporting characters were all fantastic, especially Nick Frost’s Santa Claus, but Shona was pretty amazing too – special notice must go to her dancing skills. I’m really glade Jenna ColemanĀ is staying for another season. Her chemistry with Peter Capaldi’s Doctor is fantastic. The Twelfth Doctor and Clara Oswald are winning team. I hope they don’t mess everything up and they take full advantage of the potentialities that a character like Clara has. I’m also happy she is staying because I couldn’t have beard if she had left by dying of old age. When I saw she was old I thought it was the end of her and I cried real hard. It would have been as heartbreaking as Donna’s memory loss, to say the least. I know many people of DW fandom will be angry because they hate her, but I don’t care.
