Festive specials
EastEnders traditionally broadcasts extended episodes on Christmas Day and New Year's Day, in time slots that are typically adjacent to Doctor Who's own festive specials, resulting in the two shows competing against each other ratings.
For Christmas Day schedules, EastEnders have typically ended up with higher overnight ratings than Doctor Who, with only The Time of the Doctor and The Husbands of River Song managing to score higher in their respective years, with New Year's Day ratings historically having worked in Doctor Who's favour, with only Part 2 of The End of Time failing to outdo EastEnders in 2010.
