Every year since 2005 there has been a Christmas Special for Doctor Who. We take a look at the first 3 in this episode of our podcast. What did we think of these Christmas based stories?

The Happiness Patrol, that 1988 Doctor Who story that features Sylvester McCoy as the Doctor facing the Kandy Man. Oh boy... Is this episode really that bad or maybe, just maybe there are some good points to it. Maybe.

The Doctor (Peter Davison) travels to Frontios and meets perhaps his greatest challenge, the Tractators!! This is bad enough but is the TARDIS actually destroyed? Find out in this spoiler-ful review of this 1984 story.

The third season of the new Doctor Who series has a lot of excellent episodes. Was The Shakespeare Code one of those episodes? The Doctor and Martha team up with Shakespeare himself to fight witches. David Tennant stars as the Doctor in this 2007 story.

In 2014 the Doctor meets Robin of Sherwood. This does not seem possible since Robin of Sherwood is not real. Could he be a robot? Maybe. Our group watched this Peter Capaldi episode and found it quite enjoyable but was there too much humor in it?

Starting in 1972 the Doctor meets up with the Daleks in The Day of the Daleks. This Jon Pertwee era story sees the Daleks using time travel technology on Earth. With UNIT involved, one has to imagine the Daleks have their work cut out for them but they have the Ogrons!!

In 1966 Doctor Who hit a milestone with the final William Hartnell episode. Not only was this his last episode and the Cybermen's first, it was the first time we would experience a regeneration. Without this the show would have probably not endured decades of success. With one episode missing and only available in animated format, what do we think of this one?

Back in 2005 when Doctor Who returned to our television screens there were a few episodes that really demonstrated that the show had potential to be amazing. Written by Steven Moffatt, The Empty Child and The Doctor Dances were two episodes that really gave us a glimpse at the potential this show had. Does it still hold up though?

In 1987 the Doctor (Sylvester McCoy) visited Paradise Towers. For him and Mel it was a harrowing experience with cannibals, girl gangs and killer roving trash machines. For us, the viewer, was Paradise Towers any good? We have some positive and negative things to say on this one.
