Satsumas were a type of Earth citrus fruit. Sometimes called Christmas oranges, they were commonly given for Christmas in Great Britain, similarly to tangerines. The Tenth Doctor said, "...doesn't that just sum up Christmas? You go through all those presents and right at the end, tucked away at the bottom, there's always one stupid old satsuma." (TV: The Christmas Invasion)

Uses of satsumas

Following his victory over the Sycorax leader in a sword fight in 2006, the Tenth Doctor found a satsuma in his pocket and threw it against a switch on the hull of the Sycorax vessel when the Sycorax leader, in violation of the rules of combat, prepared to attack him from behind. The switch opened the hull under the leader's feet, and he fell thousands of feet to his death. (TV: The Christmas Invasion) The Doctor soon mentioned the satsuma in his diary, (PROSE: First Day of the Doctor ^[+]Loading...{"page":"30","1":"First Day of the Doctor (short story)"}) and it was later found in Brockley in early 2007 and stored in the Leamington Spa Lifeboat Museum.

Behind the scenes

This section needs a cleanup.
