Original subtitles

Once, there was a planet much like any other, and unimportant.

This planet sent the universe a message.

A bell tolling among the stars, ringing out to all the dark corners of creation,

and everybody came to see.

Although no one understood the message,

Everyone who heard her found themselves afraid.

Except one man.

The man who stayed for Christmas.

I bring proof of courage and comradeship.

What is this ship and why are you here?

Identify yourselves by species and planet of origin.

Every ship I go on, they just shoot at me.

Handles, I said put me on a ship. I didn't say put me on a Dalek ship. Don't

me on a Dalek ship when I'm holding a broken bit of Dalek.

You did not indicate a preference.

Use your head. It's not like you've got a lot of alternatives. They're all here.

Daleks, Sontarans, Terileptils, Slythene, and they're not even fighting.

They're just part. Why?

The message was received throughout the universe. Yes, yes, the message, the

message. Even I can't translate it.

I mean, why is everyone here if they don't understand it? You're here.

Well, you know, I'm OCD. What's their excuse? What does this message mean?

No, and remind me, I've got to patch the telephone back through the console

unit. This is getting ridiculous.

Attention. Information available.

Okay.

You must patch the telephone device back through the console unit. No, no, no,

no, no, no. Not now. Remind me later.

When? I don't know. Just later. Just pick a time. When? I don't know. Just

old time. Just when you think I've forgotten.

When? Just pick a random number. Express that number as a quantity of minutes,

and when that time has elapsed, remind me to patch the telephone back through

the console unit.

Affirmative. How those cyber evenings must fly.

Hello, the target.

Emergency. You're my boyfriend.

Ding dong. OK, brilliant. I may be a bit rusty in some areas, but I will glance

at a manual.

No, no.

You're not actually my boyfriend.

Oh, that was quick.

Get some rollercoaster, this phone call. But I need a boyfriend really quickly.

Well, I hope you're nicer to the next one.

No, shut up.

Christmas dinner. Me, cooking.

So?

Who I may have accidentally invented a boyfriend.

Yeah, I did that once, and there's no easy way to get rid of an android.

No, not an android. A pretend one. An imaginary one. And I said you'd be

to Christmas dinner.

Yeah.

Handles, that's a new ship. Okay, we'll take the TARDIS this time.

I just need you to come for Christmas dinner. Just do that for me. Just come

Christmas dinner and be my Christmas date.

Sorry, missed that last bit. Got a dash.

I come in.

Alert, alert.

Intruder detected.

The intruder will be upgraded.

I need

you. I'm cooking Christmas dinner. Shut up, my son of a... Well, can't we do

both?

Happy Christmas!

How's the turkey doing?

Great, yeah. Yeah, it's doing great.

Well, dead and decapitated, but that's Christmas when you're a turkey.

Actually, maybe I will have a little more.

There you go, Gran.

Did you put it in early enough?

Dad will put it in when you phone me.

I emailed you some instructions.

Oh, you certainly did.

I so need to... Clara!

No, stop.

Stop. Don't move. Don't do anything.

Why? What is it? What's wrong?

You're naked.

Yes, I am naked. I wondered if you'd notice.

Doctor, why are you naked?

Because I'm going to church.

Ooh.

Ready?

Oh, that was quick.

Hologram clothes projected directly onto your visual cortex.

So you're still naked underneath?

Everybody's naked underneath.

I don't say things like that. It's Christmas.

I'll meet my family.

Hello. So, uh, here he is. Hello, the Oswalds. Hello.

Merry Christmas. Hello.

Hello.

Hello, handsome.

Anyone for Twister?

So, this is the doctor, my boyfriend.

Isn't anybody going to say hello?

Hello.

Excuse me a moment.

I've got an idea to break the ice. Why don't I project my clothes hologram onto

their visual cortexes too?

So, to be clear, no one except me can see your clothes? Yes, and I'm starting

think it may be causing tension.

Are we playing Twister now?

Hey,

sorry.

Sorry?

He's Swedish.

Doctor, please.

Oh, that's never going to work, is it?

What's wrong?

You don't think it's done yet? I think a decent vet would give it an even

chance. OK, well, use an app. An app? A new screwdriver.

App it. Most certainly not. It doesn't do turkey.

Nothing does turkey.

You'd need a time machine.

What?

You can't keep using the TARDIS like this. Like what?

Missed birthdays, wrist -drawn bookings, and please, just learn how to use

iPlayer.

Mmm.

Vortex cooking?

Yep. Exposure to the time winds. It'll either come up a treat or just possibly

lay some eggs.

Information available.

What's that? Just a bit of a Cyberman. He'll get us to the church on time.

I have developed a fault. The organics are all gone, but there's still a full

set of databanks found at the mouth of our market.

Planet identified from analysis of message.

Right. Cool. Go on, then. Okay, tell us. What is the planet? Go on.

Processing. Official designation.

Processing. Okay. In your own time, dear. Don't rush.

Why haven't you just come down there? Had a look. It's shielded. Even the

can't break through it.

Gallifrey.

What did you say?

Gallifrey. What are you talking about, Gallifrey? What do you mean?

Confirmed. Planet designation.

Gallifrey.

See that?

Gallifrey is my home. I know it when I see it. That is not Gallifrey.

Doctor, you okay?

Not Gallifrey.

Gallifrey's gone.

Unless... Unless you saved it.

You thought you might have.

Even if it survived, it's gone from this universe. That is not my home.

It can't be.

What's that?

People may say it's like a great big flying church.

The first ship to arrive, they're the ones who shielded the planet. They can

us down there.

That's a lemon.

Mother Superius!

Oh, she's inviting us aboard.

Why? Because I asked her. Follow this.

What is that? Your hologram projector. You can't go to church with your clothes

on.

I don't feel like I'm wearing anything. I know.

Relaxing, isn't it?

What is this place?

Church of the Papal Mainframe, security hub of the known universe.

A security church?

Yep. Keeping you safe in this world and the next.

I venerate the exaltation of the Mother Superior.

Welcome to the Church of the Papal Mainframe.

Your nudity is appreciated.

Hey, babes. Loving the frock.

Is that a new body?

Give us a twirl. Tash, this odd thing, please. I've been rocking it for

centuries. Nice, though.

Tight. So, uh, hello.

Clara,

this is Tash Lem, the head of the church of the papal mainframe. Tash.

This is my... my

associate, Clara Oswald.

Miss Clara Oswald.

We'll go to my chapel.

All honours in place.

No sacrifices required.

It was Tasha who shielded the planet.

But you could sneak me down there, couldn't you, Tasha?

I would have conditions.

I have confidential matters to discuss with the Doctor. Would you excuse us?

Anything you have to say to me, you can say in front of Clara.

Well, quite a lot of it. Probably about half.

Maybe... A smidge under.

Actually, Clara, would you mind waiting over here, please? No worries.

You two get yourselves a room. Yes, quite. No, stop it. Boss of the

Mums. So are you.

Doctor.

That altar looks like a bed.

That bed looks like an altar.

Yep.

Excuse me.

That message is transmitting through all of space and time.

What does it make you feel?

Feel? Every sentient being in the universe who detected that signal felt

something. Something overpowering.

Fear.

Pure, unadulterated dread.

I saw you and then I forgot you. How does that work?

Right, what's the signal? Where's it coming from?

It's a settlement.

Human colony level to a farm, basically. Right. Anyone in for a look?

Anyone ship lands, the rest will follow. There will be bloodshed.

Fortunately, we got here first.

Shield of the planet, we maintain the truce by blocking all of them. Darlings,

the Cybermen, one of that lot could break through your defences. Perhaps,

they're afraid, remember?

Nobody wants to go first.

I do. I was counting on it.

What are you? Why do you keep forgetting him?

You okay?

Fine. Yeah.

Sorry. Right.

This is my personal teleport.

I can put you down just outside the town, find the source of the message and

report back to me in one hour. And on your life, Doctor, you will cause no

trouble down there. When do I?

Don't ask that.

What? I'm not an idiot. Everyone in this church is trained to see straight

through holograms. Ah, great. Give now.

You're taking no technology of any kind down there. What can I do with a key?

You, in, now!

You could summon your TARDIS. The TARDIS doesn't work by remote.

Fine, if it makes you feel any better, there we are.

Remember, I want you back in one hour.

There's a heat loss filter in your hologram shell. It'll kick in. Just give

moment. So, sweet little town, covered in snow, half the universe in terror.

Why?

Why?

Oh, my God.

What?

Something under the snow. It's... What is it?

Cold. OK, just stand back, please, Clara.

It's stone.

Just stone. It's any statue.

Clara, step away from it.

All right, keep looking at it. Don't look away. Don't even blink.

What is it? There is a weeping angel under the snow.

Looks like a statue isn't a statue. Can you get your foot out? I can't even get

it out of my shoe. You're not wearing a shoe. Good point. Okay, just pull hard.

I'm trying.

What does it look like for? It can only move if it's unobserved.

What is it doing here? Same as everybody else. They must have got past Tasha's

shield.

Keep looking.

I can't. I can't see.

Snow's in my eyes.

I just need to bring the toilet stuff. You can't fly it remotely.

No, but it can hold it on the key.

You should take the old key. I took one of them.

Engines activating.

The old key in the quiff routine.

Classic. Okay.

Homing in on the mysterious message.

Oh, yes, I like that. The mysterious message.

You shaved your head?

Yep. Clever plan to get us past the shield.

You got bored one night, didn't you?

Yeah, a tiny bit bored.

What happened to your eyebrows?

No, they're just delicate.

Right.

Setting us down near the signal source. I'm going to turn the engines on silent.

Don't want to make a fuss.

Put you back on. Why?

Your ears are like rocket fins.

I know.

Ah, good to be wearing clothes again.

That's so much better, don't you think?

Now, what do we make of this place?

It's two o 'clock in the afternoon. It must be very short days here. The

is coming from that tower.

Hello! Hello there!

Right, we're a couple from the next town. My name's probably Hank or Rock,

something like that. Or Daisy. Shut up.

Hello. Good to meet you.

Nice snow.

Most pleasant to meet you, too. Most pleasant. Most pleasant. I'm the Doctor.

I'm a Time Lord from the planet Gallifrey. I stole a time machine and

and I've been flouting the principle law of my own people ever since.

That wasn't quite what I was meant to say.

I'm an English teacher from the planet Earth, and I've grown up with a man from

space because I really fancy it.

I think perhaps you should stop talking till you get used to it.

Used to what?

What did you say your name was?

Lovely personality, masculine body control freak? I'm wearing a wig.

No. Ah, I see. Yes, of course. It's a truth field.

Oh, that is so quaint. I haven't seen a truth field in years. I'm wearing a wig.

No one can lie in this town.

Especially this close to the tower.

Doesn't that make life a bit difficult?

Not at all.

This town, what's it called?

It's Christmas.

It's July.

No, the town. The town is Christmas.

That's what it's called.

Be happy here.

Be well.

How can a town be called Christmas?

I don't know. How can an island be called Easter? Maybe it's just nice

almost hate to find out what's wrong.

There you are.

What took you so long?

What's wrong?

There's only a crack in the wall.

I knew.

I always knew it wasn't over.

What is it?

A split in the skin of reality.

Tiny sliver of the 26th of June, 2010, the day the universe blew up. Yes, sir.

I rebooted it, put it all back together again.

That's good. Well, it was my TARDIS that blew it up in the first place. I felt a

degree of responsibility, but the scar tissue remains a structural weakness in

the whole universe. And someone's trying to get through it from outside our

universe, from somewhere else. Of course. Of course. Makes sense.

It does? Yes.

If you're trying to break through a wall, you choose the weakest spot. If

trying to break into this universe, you choose this crack. Because, no, if

you're trying to break back into this universe, you said Gallifrey. Why did

say Gallifrey?

Analysis of message composition indicates Gallifreyan origin, according

TARDIS databanks.

You said Gallifrey was gone.

No.

I said it was in another universe. The message is coming through here. The

field is, too. I had a guess. If it's the Time Lords.

If it's the Time Lords.

There is an algorithm imprinted in the atomic structure.

Use it to decode the message.

Message decoding. Message analysis proceeding.

Information available.

The message is a request for information.

It's a question. Why can't you just say it's a question?

It is being projected through all of time and space on a repeating cycle.

The oldest question in the universe.

Hidden in plain sight.

Warning. Translation will be available to all life forms in range.

Translation follows.

Doctor. Who?

Doctor.

Hatch me through to the doctor.

Now!

The question only I could answer. Truth filled to make sure I'm not lying.

If I give my name, they'll know they've found the right place.

And that it's safe to come through.

The Time Lord.

Okay, so what then? If you answer the question and they come back, what

You need to take this to the... TARDIS and put it in the charger slot for the

sonic. Why?

Hell. All hell.

That's what happens if the Time Lords come back.

There's half the universe up there already waiting to open fire.

Now please, go to the TARDIS and just do as I say.

Doctor!

Speak with me!

Mother Superius, there is only one thing I need from you. This planet.

What's it called?

Trenzalore.

Okay. Is that it?

You're doing a clever thing.

If you speak your name, the Time Lords will return.

If they return, they will come in peace.

It doesn't matter.

They will be met with a war that will never end. The time war will begin anew.

You know that, Doctor.

Don't you dare! No, no!

They're asking for my help!

And if you give it, War will be the consequence. I will not let that happen.

At any cost.

Speak your name, and this world will burn.

No. This planet is protected.

So, you lot, quick word.

Thank you.

Spot of news.

Christmas has a new sheriff.

Hello, everyone.

And the doctor.

Attention. Attention, all chapels and choirs of the papal mainframe.

The siege of Trenzalore is now begun.

There will now be an unscheduled faith change.

From this moment on, I dedicate this church to one cause.

Silence.

The doctor will not speak his name.

And war will not begin.

Silence will fall.

Silence will fall.

Silence will fall.

In the time that followed...

The papal mainframe strove to maintain the peace between the Doctor and his

enemies.

We remain undetectable to the papal mainframe.

Commander Scott, that's the detection warning.

Our invisibility cloak is compromised.

What's wrong with it? I don't know. I can't see it.

Well, it looks invisible to me.

The Church of the Papal Mainframe apologises for your death. The relevant

afterlives have been notified.

As the days passed, and the years, the Doctor stayed true to his word.

On the fields of Trenzalore, he stood as protector, both of his own people and

his new home.

Over time, the Doctor's enemies would find new, stranger ways to enter the

called Christmas.

Considerate. The doctor is required.

There you go, Barnable. Thanks. Working fine. Nice action. Don't leave it out in

the rain again.

Fix the wheels and the anti -gravs.

Yeah, may have gone a bit far. Now then, what do we have today?

Don't you move one step further.

Wooden Cyberman.

Nice. Like it. Low tech.

Doesn't set off the alarms upstairs.

Early bit of tech allowed in. Got in before the truce. Now, I just sent an

instruction to your firearm to reverse the polarity and fire out the back end.

Now, as we're standing in a truce field, you will understand I cannot be lying.

If you like, you can scan my screwdriver.

Verify that's the signal I send.

Signal verified.

I probably should have mentioned this doesn't work on wood.

You send your friends up there a message from the doctor.

You tell them the doctor stays.

Next.

With every victory, the town celebrated.

In time...

The doctor seemed to forget he'd lived any other life.

Christmas is defended!

And the people of the town came to love the man who stayed for Christmas.

Because it's bigger on the inside now?

I don't want water.

What is it?

What's that noise?

Well, where have you been for 300 years?

What's that? It's my ship.

Your what? It's my TARDIS. That's how I got here in the first place.

Does this mean you live here?

you're in the time vortex. She must have extended the force field. No wonder.

No wonder she's late dragging you around.

You tricked me.

I saved you. You didn't even say goodbye.

I am furious with you. Well, I am not even talking to you.

Doctor. Fixing toys and fighting monsters.

Turkey isn't done yet.

Is this for asking the question?

Oh, it never stops. Come upstairs.

It's almost time.

Dawn.

The light here lasts only a few minutes. You don't want to miss it.

Now, stand off.

They can't attack in case I unleash the Time Lords, and I can't run away because

they'll burn this planet to stop the Time Lords.

Hey, after all these years, I've finally found somewhere that needs me to stick

around.

A town called Christmas.

Could have been worse.

Right.

There you go, buddy.

Comfy.

Comfort is irrelevant.

How's that? Is that better?

Affirmative.

Just take it easy, buddy.

He's getting old.

I do my best for him, but I just can't get the parts, you know.

Hey.

Know the feeling.

Where do you get these?

I have a supplier.

Pitman's the best.

I have to validate Ford.

Hey, don't you worry, Andals. He's just dreaming.

The sun's coming up very soon.

You just hang on in there.

I have to validate.

Fault.

Aye. I have to validate. Fault.

Hey.

Handles, come on.

Come on.

One more dawn, you can do it.

We've got it in you. Come on, just hang on in there.

Attention. Emergency detention.

Handles, what is it? What's wrong?

Agent, action required.

You must patch the telethon device back through the console here now.

Handles.

Handles.

Thank

you,

handles.

And well done.

Well done, mate.

What do you think of my new place?

Come up here once a day for a few minutes.

Remind myself of what it is I'm protecting.

It's beautiful.

Why did you send me away?

Because if I hadn't, I'd have buried you a long time ago.

No, you wouldn't.

I would never have let you get stuck here. Ha!

Everyone gets stuck somewhere eventually, Clara.

Everything ends. Except you.

If you've been paying attention.

I'm an old man now. But you don't die.

You change. You pop right back up with a new face. No, not forever.

I can change 12 times 13 versions of me. 13 silly doctors.

Okay, so you're number 11, so... Are we forgetting Captain Grumpy?

I didn't call myself the Doctor during the Time War, but it was still a

regeneration. Okay, so you're number 12. Well, number 10 once regenerated and

kept the same face. I had vanity issues at the time. Twelve regenerations,

Clara. I can't ever do it again. This is where I end up.

This face.

This version of me.

We saw this planet in the future, remember?

All those graves.

One of them mine.

Change the future.

I can't. You've got your TARDIS back.

I think I'm just going to fly away, abandon everyone.

Of course not.

But you've been protecting this town for over 300 years. Do you not think

anybody else is going? There is no one else to protect it.

Then it's not going to be you forever. It's going to end the same way, whatever

you do. Every life I save is a victory.

Every single one.

What about your life?

Just for once, after all of this time, have you not earned the right to think

about that?

Sorry.

Wrong thing to say. We shouldn't be having an argument.

Clara, I've been having that argument for the last 300 years, all by myself.

But you didn't have your TARDIS. Ah, yes. Well, that made it easier to stay.

Doctor? Ah.

Look who's woken up. The Church of the Silence requests parley.

Your rights and safety are sanctified.

I'll be right up.

I'm sending a transporter.

Nah, don't bother.

I've got me motor back.

It's gone dark.

Yeah, well, the sun's gone down.

Already?

Everything ends, Clara.

And sooner than you think.

You guarding my tod is

vulnerable. Are you coming back?

Ah, come on.

You know me.

No, she's against aging.

Approach.

What are those things?

Professional priests.

Very popular.

Genetically engineered so you forget everything you told them.

Told who?

There you go.

Satisfactory.

Where are the pink ones?

E -numbers.

You're hyper enough as it is.

So, this is sweet.

In the middle of a siege, you need to have a little chat.

She's right. This situation cannot continue.

It can't end, either.

Redbot!

The Time Lord has entered the trap.

Why did you ever come to Trenzalore?

Well, I did come to Trenzalore, and nothing can change that now. Didn't stop

trying, though, did it? Not me. The Gavarian chapter broke away.

They travelled back along your timeline and tried to prevent you ever reaching

Trenzalore. So that's who blew up my TARDIS.

I thought I'd left the bath running.

They blew up your time capsule, created the very cracks in the universe through

which the Time Lords are now calling.

The Destiny Trap.

You can't change history if you're part of it.

They engineered a psychopath to kill you. Totally married, huh?

I'd never have made it here alive without River Song.

I'm not interested in changing history, Doctor.

I want to change the future.

The Daleks send for reinforcements daily. They are massing for war.

Three days ago, they attacked the mainframe itself.

They attacked here?

How did you stop them?

Stop them?

It was slaughter.

Why didn't you call me? I could have helped.

I tried.

I died in this room screaming your name.

Don't. Oh.

I don't.

It's funny the things that slip your mind.

No. No, no, no, no. Tasha, no, please. Don't, Tasha, no. Fight it.

Tash, fight it.

I don't even know who I am. Information concerning the Doctor was harvested from

the cadaver of Tasha Lem.

Bet she never told you how to break the Trenzalore forcefield, though. She'd

have died first.

Several times.

Well, you'd better kill me then. Go on, but before you do... Doctor Who.

Doctor Who.

Doctor Who.

I'm a tough old bone.

I'll be ages dying, way enough time to answer a question. And oh dear, what

happens then, boys?

You will die in silence, Doctor.

Or your associate will die.

Fine, go on, kill her.

Kill her!

See if I care.

But tell me, what are you going to do next?

See how the Time Lord betrays.

You'll kill me anyway.

What difference does it make?

I'm not afraid.

I leave that to you.

You see, Tasha, that's what I'm talking about. That is a woman.

I always knew you were a bit spineless. You and your pointless church. Why did I

ever rely on you? Never trust a nun to do a doctor's work.

And she's back.

You never could resist a row.

Keep me when I ask.

Why, you'd better ask nicely.

In your dreams.

Right. Get us back to the TARDIS. Can you do that?

Yep. But quickly. The Dalek inside me is waking.

Fight it. I can't.

Listen to me.

You have been fighting the psychopath inside you all your life. Shut up and

That is an order, Tasha Lam. The force field will hold for a while, but it will

decay. And there are breachers already.

And this isn't a siege anymore.

It's a war. It's all up to you now. Fight the Daleks inside and out. You can

it. I know you can. Oh, I see.

You've got your TARDIS back, haven't you?

Time to fly away.

Tasha, please.

Please.

Thank you.

None of this was for you, you fatuous egotist.

It was for the peace.

Fly away, Doctor.

It's done.

What is?

Your turkey.

Either that or it's woken up.

You want some?

Go on, then.

Got any plates?

Do you know, I've even got Christmas crackers.

One thing.

Give me those big, sad eyes. Look at me so I know you're not lying and tell me

you will never send me away ever again.

If you're not leaving, why did you bring it back?

It's a reminder.

Besides, I might leave tomorrow.

Or the next day.

Or the day after that.

And so, with the fields of Trenzalore came all the Time Lords' enemies.

For this was the winter of the Doctor.

In time, when all other races had retreated or burned, only the Church of

Mainframe remained in the path of the Daleks.

And so those ancient enemies, the Doctor and the Silence, stood back to back in

the fields of Trenzalore.

Other fish in the sea, that's what I'm saying.

Linda, I don't think Clara wants to talk about it. I've got a suggestion, that's

all. I've got a list of suggestions.

Linda. You could make a boy band out of my list.

I hate boy bands. Of course you don't, not at your age.

These crackers are rubbish.

I bought them.

I know.

They're classy.

They don't have jokes.

Exactly. They've got poems.

They're more dramatic crackers.

I like the jokes.

Tell her the joke, Gwen.

You know loads of jokes. I think we're probably talking about my list now.

Probably not.

Tell us how you met Dad.

The thing about the pigeon.

I saw him on a pier on a rainy day.

No, no, not that one. The one about the pigeon.

I'd seen him before lots of times. But he just looked so beautiful standing

there. The pigeon in the restaurant. Do you remember?

I wanted everything to stop.

I wanted nothing to change ever again.

If he could just keep standing there.

So beautiful.

Long time ago.

Don't hold me so tight, dear. You'll break something.

Oh, that's nice. Crying at Christmas.

Sorry.

I hope you made a wish.

What's wrong, Clara?

Everybody just stay put.

You can fly the TARDIS.

Flying TARDIS was always easy.

It was flying the doctor I never quite mastered.

What's happened to him?

What am I supposed to do?

He shouldn't die alone.

Go to him.

Barnabell?

Clara.

Hello, Doctor.

Were you always so young?

No. That was you.

Take the doctor.

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas.

Hey, it's okay.

It's fine, don't worry.

Is there a joke?

Huh?

Extract from Thoughts on a Clock by Eric Ritchie Jr.

Is there not one that is the best?

I don't think so.

Well, read it. Go on.

And now it's time for one last bow.

Like all your other selves.

Eleven's hour is over now.

The clock is striking twelve.

I don't get it.

Doctor!

The Doctor will be brought!

The Daleks demand the Doctor!

They're here.

The Daleks. We can't stop them.

They want you.

All right, Barnable.

Are you Barnable?

No, Doctor.

It's okay, Barnable. Don't worry. I have got a plan.

Off you pop.

I haven't got a plan, but people love it when I say that.

Doctor, what are you going to do?

I don't know.

Talk very fast.

Hope something good happens.

Take the credit.

It's generally how it works.

Doctor. Not this time, though.

This is it.

No. Yes.

We saw the future, Clara.

This is how it ends.

Change it. Like Tasha said, change the future.

I could have once.

When there were time, lords.

Not anymore.

No.

You're going to stay here.

Promise me you will.

Why? I'll be keeping you safe.

One last victory.

Allow me that.

Give me that.

Probably darlings, is.

Don't take so long to say anything.

Probably die of boredom before they shoot me.

The Doctor is required!

Listen to me, you lot. Listen!

Help him.

Help him change the future. Do it. Do something.

Doctor! You've been asking a question.

And it's time someone told you you've been getting it wrong.

His name.

His name is the Doctor.

All the name he needs, everything you need to know about him.

Sorry I'm a bit slow.

May not be at my best right now.

You are dying.

Yes.

I'm dying.

You've been trying to kill me for centuries and here I am.

Dying of old age.

If you want something done, do it yourself.

You still can't work up the courage to shoot me, can you? You still worried

got something up my sleeve?

Well, you knock yourself out, boys.

Got nothing this time.

What did you say?

Did you mention the rules?

Now, listen, a bit of advice.

Tell me the truth if you think you know it. Lay down the law if you're feeling

brave. But, darlings, never, ever tell me the rules!

Emergency! Emergency!

It's regeneration!

It's regeneration!

Oh, look at this!

Regeneration number 30! We're breaking the...

Doctor! Hello.

You're young again.

You're okay.

You didn't even change your face.

Ha!

It started.

I can't stop it now. This is just the reset.

A whole new regeneration cycle.

Taking a bit longer.

Just breaking it in.

It all just disappears, doesn't it? Everything you are gone in a moment like

breath on a mirror.

Any moment now, he's a -coming.

Who's coming?

You are the doctor. Yep.

And I always will be.

But times change, and so must I.

Amelia.

Who is Amelia?

The first face this face saw.

change.

When you think about it, we're all different people all through our lives.

And that's okay. That's good. You've got to keep moving so long as you remember

all the people that you used to be.

I will not forget one line of this.

Not one day.

I swear.

I will always remember.

when the doctor was me.

Raggedy man.

Good night.

Kidneys! I've got new kidneys!

I don't like the colour.

Of your kidneys?

What's happening?

Oh, brother, they can't see.

It's a war!

It's not.

Just one person.

She happens to know how to fly, this thing.

Unmissable drama doesn't stop there. Christmas Night EastEnders is next on

One.
