Ode to Joy was the twelfth short story in the Short Trips anthology Short Trips: The History of Christmas. It was written by Jonathan Clements. It featured the Fourth Doctor.

Summary[]

The Doctor lands in 20th century Tokyo and meets a talking fox, who claims to be one of the Divine. It is Christmas Eve, and they watch a boy propose to his girlfriend.

They listen to "Ode to Joy", the tune of which the fox recognises, but didn't know the words because they are in German. However, thanks to the TARDIS, she can now understand the lyrics.
