As [[Jackie Tyler|Jackie]] prepares presents and [[Mickey Smith|Mickey]] works in the garage, both of them hear the distinctive sound of [[the Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]]' engines. Rushing out into the street of the [[Powell Estate]], they see the TARDIS blink into existence above them, ricochet off a few buildings and a post van, then come to a crashing halt. A strange man stumbles out of the [[police box]] doors, greets them by name and wishes them a merry Christmas before collapsing. [[Rose Tyler|Rose]] follows and, in response to Jackie and Mickey's questions, identifies the stranger as the [[Tenth Doctor|Doctor]]. | ||
They bring the Doctor to Jackie's flat and dress him in pyjamas belonging to [[Howard (The Christmas Invasion)|Howard]], Jackie's current beau, who has the habit of keeping pieces of fruit in his pocket for snacks. While Rose discusses the Doctor's change of appearance and the fact he has [[Binary vascular system|two hearts]] with Jackie, they do not see a wisp of vortex energy emerging from the Doctor's mouth, which then floats into space. On [[television]], [[Prime Minister]] [[Harriet Jones]] and project director [[Daniel Llewellyn]] give a press conference about the ''[[Guinevere One]]'' space probe, which is about to land on [[Mars]]. In space, however, the probe is swallowed up by an island-like spaceship. | They bring the Doctor to Jackie's flat and dress him in pyjamas belonging to [[Howard (The Christmas Invasion)|Howard]], Jackie's current beau, who has the habit of keeping pieces of fruit in his pocket for snacks.
