There is more than just the annual festive Doctor Who Christmas special this year.  BBC4 is showing some classic fourth Doctor action on the 28th/29th December as the channel broadcasts The Face of Evil!

As Patrick Mulkern observes in the Radio Times:  The Face of Evil seems like a random selection from the archive, but BBC4 wanted a serial that aired in festive days of yore and this four-parter began on New Year’s Day 1977.
