Prose This is the final entry in a trilogy of stories about the Brigadier at Christmas across his life. Alistair awakens on the 25th December to find Eighth and Charley putting together a large lunch for a number of invited guests, a who's who of the old soldier's life. When Osgood's introduced, it took me a moment to remember this was written in 2007 and it didn't mean her. Side note: Although Steven Moffat intended Petronella to be the daughter of Tom Osgood, presumably the man mentioned here, Dave Rudden took it upon himself to give her a whole different father and family in The Wintertime Paradox who may or may not have been involved at UNIT. Perhaps Tom's her uncle instead.
Placement: Has to be after Minuet in Hell but before The Shadows of Avalon (when the Brig was rejuvenated) which is narratively impossible but chronologically fine. The less said about CyberBrig, the better. Let's say they popped in after Seasons of Fear wanting a break.
