If this thread's title doesn't specify it's spoilery, don't bring any up.
I think the Christmas specials should be considered an extension of the previous series, and NOT the premier to the next series. I have a few reasons to back up my opinion:
1.They aired in the same year as that series.
2.They continue directly on from that series(With the exception of The Next Doctor).
3.They are listed as part of that series by the bbc website.
4.They have been mentioned to be part of that series several times on Confidential.
However, if people continue to list them as part of the next series, then we should also consider the latest Christmas special 'The End of Time' to be part of Series 5.
And if we still cannot come to a conclusion to this matter, then I suggest that we do not list the Christmas specials under ANY series and Class them as standalone episodes.
- Where are they listed under the previous series by the BBC website? They are all under Specials in the episode list I see.
- They are always included in the boxed set of the next series, except The End of Time, and their production code is likewise. -- Noneofyourbusiness 03:46, January 27, 2010 (UTC)
