Festive Greeting was the third in the Reconstructions series.

Despite being attached to the docudrama An Adventure in Space and Time, rather than playing William Hartnell, David Bradley is playing the First Doctor.

It adapted the fourth wall breaking scene from The Feast of Steven, an episode of The Daleks' Master Plan.

And a Merry Christmas to all of you at home...

Crew[[edit] | [edit source]]

Worldbuilding[[edit] | [edit source]]

Story notes[[edit] | [edit source]]

  • While the reconstruction is entirely in-universe and fictional we do hear a crew member shout "action" to give it a sixties production error authentic feel.
