Christmas Special (ST short story)

Christmas Special was the seventh short story in the Short Trips anthology Short Trips: A Christmas Treasury. It was written by Marc Platt. It featured the Sixth Doctor.

Summary
The Doctor has seen a television in an antique shop, but never had time or money to buy it. One day, he hears a knock on the TARDIS door, and the television is waiting outside. He brings it in, turns it on, and begins to watch, soon falling asleep.

The Doctor dreams that his life becomes the basis for a TV programme which is cancelled for no apparent reason and then begrudgingly returned opposite Coronation Street.

The Doctor wakes, and decides he won't let this television spoil his Christmas. He heaves it out of the TARDIS.
