Quotes 

• The Doctor : There's a horror movie called Alien? That's really offensive. No wonder everyone keeps invading you.

• The Doctor : How do you get all the presents in the sleigh?

  Santa Claus : It's bigger on the inside.

• Ashley : [sees the Tardis]  What is that?

  The Doctor : That's how Clara and I got here.

  Ashley : In a box?

  The Doctor : Technically, in a telephone kiosk.

  Ashley : [laughs]  How?

  The Doctor : Because it's a spaceship in disguise. Do you know what the big problem is in telling fantasy and reality apart?

  Ashley : What?

  The Doctor : They're both ridiculous.

• The Doctor : Danny isn't real. Danny Pink died saving the world.

  Danny : I really didn't.

  The Doctor : I'm sorry. I thought there was a way back for him, but I was wrong. I can't change that. He's dead.

  Danny : I didn't die saving the world, Doctor, I died saving Clara. The rest of you just got lucky. How long has she got?

  The Doctor : Minutes, till it's irreversible.

  Danny : Well then, get out the way.

  [the Doctor moves aside and Danny walks up to Clara] 

  Danny : I'm a dream and you know I am, right?

  [Clara nods] 

  Danny : Right, one thing. But it's important. It's a very important thing. That is totally how you guessed all of my presents.

  Clara Oswald : I miss you.

  Danny : Five minutes.

  Clara Oswald : What?

  Danny : You can miss me for five minutes a day. And you'd better do it properly. You'd better be sad. I expect my five. But all the rest of the time, Clara, all the rest of the time, every single second, you just get the hell on with it. Clear?

  Clara Oswald : Don't you soldier me.

  Danny : Do as you're told.

  The Doctor : Brave.

  Danny : Dead already. How does she wake up?

  The Doctor : I don't know. Just try. Accept this isn't real, and try.

  Danny : Do it. For me.

  Clara Oswald : [crying]  When I wake up, you won't be there.

  Danny : Do you know why people get together at Christmas? Because every time they do, it might be the last time. Every Christmas is last Christmas, and this is ours. This was a bonus. This is extra. But now it's time to wake up.

  [Danny and Clara kiss] 

• Clara Oswald : Doctor. Am I young?

  The Doctor : No idea.

  [Gets a mirror for her to look in] 

  The Doctor : Is that any good?

  Clara Oswald : Oh, that's good.

  The Doctor : The Tardis is outside.

  Clara Oswald : So?

  The Doctor : So, all of time and all of space is sitting out there. A big blue box. Please, don't even argue.

  [Clara thinks about it with a big grin on her face, then gives him her hand and kisses his cheek] 

  Clara Oswald : Merry Christmas, Doctor.

  The Doctor : Merry Christmas, Clara Oswald.

• The Doctor : [from trailer]  It's Christmas, Who ya Gonna Call?

• The Doctor : [to Father Christmas]  Happy Easter.

• The Doctor : [to Clara]  There's something you have to ask yourself, and it's important. Your life may depend on it. Everybody's life. Do you really believe in Santa Claus?

• The Doctor : You all right?

  Shona : Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm trying to talk sense into beardy-weirdy.

  [points at Santa Claus] 

  The Doctor : You don't seem much like a scientist.

  Shona : Well, that's a bit rude, coming from a magician.

  The Doctor : Why are you out here? What brought you to the North Pole?

  Shona : Long story, isn't it?

• The Doctor : [the Doctor joins Bellows at a monitor]  What am I looking at?

  Bellows : Footage from a week ago. A side-expedition to our main mission.

  The Doctor : What is your main mission?

  Bellows : Long story.

• The Doctor : [about Danny Pink]  You never told me he was dead. You said he made it back.

  Clara Oswald : I lied. I lied so you'd go home to Gallifrey instead of fussing about me.

  The Doctor : I never found Gallifrey. I lied so you'd stay with Danny.

• The Doctor : Just focus on this, do you believe in Santa Claus?

  Clara Oswald : I've always believed in Santa Claus. But he looks a little different to me.

  [gives the Doctor a big hug] 

• The Doctor : What's this polar base for? Why are you all here?

  Ashley : It's a long story.

• The Doctor : I want you to picture it this way. Somebody has put a straw right through your skull and is drinking you. You should be screaming with agony, but there's anesthetic. Everything around you right now, even Danny, especially Danny, that's the anesthetic.
