10 Amazing Doctor Who Moments You've Probably Never Seen
2. The Fourth Doctor And K9 Getting Drunk
Now, here's a moment that's so random, quite possibly the only way to find it is by accidentally stumbling across it while diving down one of those late-night YouTube rabbit holes. Or, in this case, by reading WhatCulture. Hello!
This is a short scene that kicks off in an unusual fashion, and gets even more strange from there. We see Tom Baker's Fourth Doctor and Mary Tamm's Romana sharing a kiss while hiding behind K9, before the Doctor gives his robo-pooch a few hefty swigs of gin - which the dog rather seems to enjoy!
Possibly a little intoxicated, K9 then breaks out into a chorus of We Wish You A Merry Christmas, and after another cheeky glance between the Doctor and Romana, the entire cast and crew bursts out laughing.
So... what exactly is this? A really baffling deleted scene or blooper? A charity special? A peek behind the curtain of what goes on between takes? Well, no. It's actually a sketch produced by the Doctor Who team during Christmas 1978, one that was included on the DVD release of The Armageddon Factor.
One can only imagine the crazy adventure that the Doctor and K9 embarked on after this...
