Vastra Investigates: A Christmas Prequel was a webcast and prequel produced for the 2012 Christmas special. It was the second prequel to be produced, after The Great Detective, which aired in November during Children in Need.

Synopsis

Madame Vastra, accompanied by her loyal companions Jenny Flint and Strax, is called upon to investigate a Victorian murder mystery. But where is the Doctor?

Plot

Another case has been cracked by Madame Vastra; Strax keeps the criminal secure while a Scotland Yard officer thanks Vastra for her help, commenting how odd Strax looks. Vastra explains the Sontaran's origins, and hers as well when he asks if the skin condition hurts, mistakenly believing her to be human. She perplexes him further by saying she fell in love with her assistant Jenny Flint. Departing in a carriage, both are saddened that the Doctor appears unwillingly to ever leave his TARDIS, parked on a cloud in the sky. However, they then both notice something very odd; it is snowing, yet there are no clouds in the sky...
