To help us prepare for this year’s Christmas special (just 17 days, everybody!), the official site has unveiled its exclusive prequel as part of its Advent Calendar!

In the short video (which you can see HERE or below!), the Doctor finds himself in yet another sticky situation, making a desperate call to a very dear friend, but it won’t end well…

The Doctor, The Widow and The Wardrobe airs on BBC One on Christmas Day at 7pm.

When Madge and her two children, Lily and Cyril, are evacuated to a draughty old house in Dorset during World War Two, they enter a magical wintry new world with the Doctor.

Above – The jaw-dropper of a Prequel to the Christmas Special, written by Steven Moffat and starring Matt Smith.

    And I’m kinda bored with Moffat starting everything with, supposedly, the Doctor’s death.

    I thought this prequel was really quite sad: the Doctor’s on his own again. Though honestly, could he not have phoned River? Or does the sonic only contact the TARDIS? But anyway, yes, quite sad, gently sorrowful, and I have no idea how he’s about to end up in 1941 England, which I suppose was the aim of the prequel.
