Besides, as well as the concept of Christmas as we know it coming from there it makes sense to be where the Doctor retreats to in his current state of mind. Not to mention it allows for a bit of Jenny and Vastra again, and a companion that seems not to come from the present day for once. Who cares about an arbitrary repetition of time period in the face of that much awesome?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272431515083873489.post-12572728842768074462012-11-19T12:32:43.648+00:002012-11-19T12:32:43.648+00:00Not to mention that even the A Christmas Carol was...Not to mention that even the A Christmas Carol was not set on Earth, the planet's Victorian influence is unmistakable.Misternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272431515083873489.post-68320919882351530352012-11-19T11:48:15.995+00:002012-11-19T11:48:15.995+00:00Jon

The second was set during WW2.<br /><br />So this is strictly speaking the first Victorian Christmas special. Granted, it is the 3rd period Christmas special, which may annoy some. Personally, given that the majority of our Christmas traditions come from the Victorian period, it seems kind of appropriate that the specials have had that olde England feel to them.Jon Sidnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10412031143341483883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272431515083873489.post-36386235739622226322012-11-17T01:24:58.512+00:002012-11-17T01:24:58.512+00:00Don't mistake this for a complaint . . . but i...Don't mistake this for a complaint . . . but it's another Victorian Christmas special.
