'''God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen''' | '''God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen''' was an ancient Earth [[Christmas]] carol. It was this song that was being played by a group of [[Roboform|robotic Santas]] prior to attacking [[Rose Tyler]] and [[Mickey Smith]] on Earth. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Christmas Invasion]]'') A group of children were also singing this song when [[Tenth Doctor|the Doctor]] arrived in London on Christmas Eve [[1851]], just before his encounter with the [[Cyberman (Pete's World)|Cybermen]]. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Next Doctor]]'') The chorus of the song was heard being played by a brass band in [[The End of Time (TV story)|The End of Time]] | ||
The melody of the carol was the same as that of the "[[Venusian lullaby]]" occasionally used by [[Third Doctor|the Doctor]] to lull his foes into a state of tranquility. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Dæmons]]'', ''[[The Curse of Peladon]]'' and [[MA]]: ''[[Venusian Lullaby]]'') | |||
