According to a story she once told Merry Gejelh, Clara Oswald once had a life-changing moment on a bank holiday spent in Blackpool. There, on a crowded beach, she got separated from her mother. Clara was afraid, but her mother's reassurances after the event allowed her to conquer the fear of getting lost. (TV: The Rings of Akhaten)
Jackie Tyler regularly used her bank holiday Mondays to watch Cliff Richard movies. This inadvertently helped Rose fit in better when she visited 1950s Britain, because the movies familiarised her with some of the lingo of that era. (TV: The Idiot's Lantern)
