It is [[Christmas]] Eve on [[Earth]], as [[Jackie Tyler]] prepares presents and [[Mickey Smith]] works in the garage, both of them hear the distinctive sound of 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, 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, to Jackie and Mickey's questions, identifies the stranger as the [[The Doctor|Doctor]]. | It is [[Christmas]] Eve on [[Earth]], as [[Jackie Tyler]] prepares presents and [[Mickey Smith]] works in the garage, both of them hear the distinctive sound of the [[TARDIS]] engines.

They bring the Doctor to Jackie's flat and dress him in pyjamas belonging to [[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 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]], Jackie's current beau, who has the habit of keeping pieces of fruit in his pocket for snacks.

That evening, Rose and Mickey go Christmas shopping, but are attacked by a group of masked [[Santa Claus|Santas]] armed with lethal musical instruments. Managing to escape when the tuba mortar brings a giant [[Christmas tree]] down on the Santas, Rose realises that the Santas must be after the Doctor. She and Mickey rush home. When they reach the flat, Rose notices an unfamiliar Christmas tree in the sitting room, which Jackie says was delivered to the door. As they realise that none of them purchased the tree, it comes to life, whirling around with razor-sharp branches. | That evening, Rose and Mickey go Christmas shopping, but are attacked by a group of masked [[Santa Claus|Santas]] armed with lethal musical instruments.
