Good King Wenceslas

"Good King Wenceslas" was a Christmas carol.

It was sung by a group of humans, including Sarah Jane Smith, who had inadvertently been captured by a Hazoodian ship. (PROSE: Autaia Pipipi Pia ^[+]Error: Code 2 - no data stored in variables, cache or SMW.)

While treading carefully through the minefields of Skaro, Sarah Jane mentioned Good King Wenceslas to the Fourth Doctor and Harry Sullivan. (TV: Genesis of the Daleks ^[+]Terry Nation, Doctor Who season 12 (BBC1, 1975).)

Mr Copper incorrectly described Good King Wenceslas as the ruler of the United Kingdom. (TV: Voyage of the Damned ^[+]Russell T Davies, Doctor Who Christmas Special 2007 (BBC One, 2007).)

Behind the scenes[]

The lyric "The Feast of Stephen" (originally referring to St Stephen's Day, but with the spelling of the name changed to Steven for Steven Taylor) was used as the title of the Christmas-cutaway episode of The Daleks' Master Plan.
