'''''Strax Field Report''''' was an [[umbrella title]] for a series of in-character advertisements in [[2013 (releases)|2013]] and ''[[Doctor Who Adventures]]'' short stories in [[2015 (releases)|2015]] that featured [[Strax]] sending reports back to [[Sontar]].
'''''Strax Field Report''''' was an [[umbrella title]] for a series of in-character advertisements in [[2013 (releases)|2013]] that featured [[Dan Starkey]]'s [[Strax]] sending reports back to [[Sontar]]. These "reports" were about episodes of ''[[Doctor Who]]'' that had not yet aired, and thus served as advertisements. Indeed, in at least two of the reports, the character clearly was talking about out-of-universe things, such as the name of episodes and [[location filming]]. The "field reports" were all delivered to the public on the web.

The cinema screening of the [[Series 8 (Doctor Who)|Series 8]] premiere, ''[[Deep Breath (TV story)|Deep Breath]]'', included an introduction, which also featured Strax's fellow [[Paternoster Gang]] members [[Vastra]] and [[Jenny Flint]], more similarly formatted to the Strax Field Report, where Strax humourously recounts the first twelve incarnations of [[the Doctor]] to Sontar, making note of the [[War Doctor]] as well as the [[Tenth Doctor]]'s aborted regeneration, before alerting them to the appearance of [[Twelfth Doctor|the new Doctor]].
