Strax Field Report: A Sontaran's View of Christmas was a webcast released during the build-up to The Time of the Doctor.

Synopsis[[edit] | [edit source]]

Field Report XI225/MAS: Strax discusses a human tradition known as "Christmas".

Plot[[edit] | [edit source]]

Strax explains that humans dress their houses with needless lights and colours, and exchange gifts — "none of which explode, decapitate or render the victim down into an easily disposable broth". He ridicules humanity for their choice of decoration and apparent pacifism. Strax then reveals his plan to confront Vastra and her boy companion Jenny Flint with a "missile-toe".
