Four landings later, the TARDIS has materialised at Christmas time in [[1982]], [[1946]], [[1931]] and [[2069]]. The Doctor has been feeding the TARDIS random co-ordinates, and can't understand why they keep landed at Christmas. However, they must keep moving to evade the Daleks. | Four landings later, the TARDIS has materialised at Christmas time in [[1982]], [[1946]], [[1931]] and [[2069]].

Once again, the TARDIS lands at Christmas time, this time in [[1914]]. They have landed in the trenches of [[France]] in [[World War I]]. The holiday has brought about a temporary truce, and the Doctor and Steven join the troops to investigate. Sara, lagging behind, meets a boy — the same boy from 1885. They introduce themselves, and he pretends to shoot her. She asks why he is here, and he replies, "Because it's Christmas," before vanishing. | Once again, the TARDIS lands at Christmas time, this time in [[1914]].

Back in the TARDIS, Sara having explained her meeting with the boy, the Doctor realises the TARDIS has been tracking a distress call. They track the boy to [[1956]], where he is playing a [[drum]] in an [[orphanage]]. The Doctor learns that the boy, Robert, doesn't just travel in time — he ''is'' a time machine. He opens a door for them to enter the machine. Inside they find a thirty-something-year-old man linked to the machine. They release him, and he calls Sara by name. They realise this is the real Robert, who has been connected to the time machine for thirty years. | Back in the TARDIS, Sara having explained her meeting with the boy, the Doctor realises the TARDIS has been tracking a distress call.
