2024 Christmas Special.
First broadcast on Wednesday 25 December 2024.
Episode 12 · Saturday 28 December 2024.
Hope might be in short supply this Christmas, and so Steven Moffat is back for his ninth Christmas Special, with a message of hope — or possibly just a message of nuclear fusion. Also back are all his favourite heartwarming and exasperating tropes, along with just a soupçon of righteous anger. Merry Christmas, everyone.

Episode 6 · Monday 20 May 2024.
This week, we’re all trying to stand very still and to remain completely calm, distracting ourselves from our predicament by reminiscing about that episode of Press Gang with the Zectron 2000 high security briefcases. And waiting for it all to go boom.
