'''''The Big Finish Christmas Advert 2020''''' was an animated webcast commercial released in 2020 by [[Big Finish Productions]] in Twitter for the beginning of the winter holiday season. Shortly before its release, it was teased on the official Big Finish Twitter account<ref>https://twitter.com/bigfinish/status/1329108355940556800</ref> as Big Finish's highly sophisticated answer to other prominent Christmas adverts: "Forget John Lewis. Stand aside Sainsburys. Allons-y Aldi. It's the Christmas advert event of the year at 7.15pm (UK time)...". The finished product, however, was intentionally underwhelming, consisting of filmed paper cutouts and being accompanied with "a heartfelt message: please buy more audio drama".  

At least one element of ''Doctor Who'' iconography appeared: a [[Dalek]]-shaped [[snowman]]. Additionally, one shot focused on a long scarf worn by a curly-haired individual, reminiscent of the [[Fourth Doctor]] and his [[The Doctor's scarf|scarf]]; however, the artstyle is too stylised to know for sure whether the character is intended to be the Fourth Doctor, a fan [[cosplay]]ing as the Fourth Doctor, or perhaps [[Tom Baker (in-universe)|Tom Baker]] himself. However, as this wiki has deemed it incredibly unlikely that it was intended to be set in the DWU, it is [[T:VS|not considered a valid source]] by this wiki.

In an atmosphere of jubilant Christmas cheer, the staff of [[Big Finish (in-universe)|Big Finish]] put on winter-wear, create [[snowman|snowmen]] (including a [[Dalek]]-shaped one), rejoice, and ultimately decorate a [[Christmas tree]] with the face of [[Nicholas Briggs (in-universe)|Nicholas Briggs]] serving as the [[Christmas star]].
