Wrapping Up the Twelve Doctors of Christmas with a Song

The Twelve Doctors of Christmas

That’s it for our Twelve Doctors of Christmas series! We had a good time pulling the material together for it and we hope it gave you something fun to read during idle holidays and snowy nights. Enthusiasm for Doctor Who is highly infectious. In fact, simply working on this series managed to turn a couple abstaining Tor.com staffers into fans!

In case you missed any of the articles, they’re all assembled here. Go check them out while humming this little ditty, improvised by our own Megan Messinger:

On the twelfth day of Christmas, the Doctor gave to me

Twelve casting choices
Eleven cool bowties
Ten angels weeping
Nine Doctors dancing
Eight TV movies
Seven “ace” companions
Six fashion nightmares
FIVE CELERIEEEES
Four stripey scarves
Three craggy features
Two cosmic hobos
And time travel on the TV

Of course, everyone has their own interpretation of the Doctors—that’s part of why the show is so great—so we hope you’ll comment with your own 12 Doctors of Christmas lyrics!

Until next time, remember: Bananas are good, Daleks are bad, try reversing the polarity, and intellect and romance should always triumph over brute force and cycnicism.
