'Doctor Who's Day Roundup: Preparing for Christmas
Welcome to the Doctor Who's Day roundup, a Santa sackful of Whovian gifts and ribbons from the last week on the internet. And this week, having dispensed with Thanksgiving, Black Friday and Cyber Monday, it's time to turn our thoughts towards Christmas. And not just the Doctor Who Christmas special, "The Return of Doctor Mysterio," although there is that too:

But if you look around the houses (and social media feeds) of Whovians, you'll find all manner of festive stuff devoted to the Doctor and his various friends and enemies. Look! K-9 in a Santa hat!
