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.
