Mr. Christmas (Mr. Men & Little Miss Celebrations)

Product Information

Always Identical Twins: Little Miss Twins are a pair of identical twins; they are based on Roger Hargreaves' twin daughters, Sophie and Amanda.

Distaff Counterpart: The Little Misses to the Mr. Men in general and some Little Misses to specific Mr. Men (Mr. and Little Miss Chatterbox; Mr. and Little Miss Busy; Mr. Happy and Little Miss Sunshine; Mr. Greedy and Little Miss Plump; Mr. Small and Little Miss Tiny, etc.). Some of them are even explicitly stated to be brother and sister. Long List: Discussed in Dr. Fourth: "In fact, the list of things Daleks can't do is long, but not as long as the list of things that Daleks don't like." This is because the only thing they like is "exterminating things". Mistaken for Fake Hair: In "Little Miss Fabulous", Little Miss Splendid spreads a rumor that the eponymous Little Miss Fabulous is wearing a blonde wig. Little Miss Trouble tests this out by tugging on Little Miss Fabulous's hair (to the latter's chagrin), and finds out it's not fake. In Mr Men Annual No. 3, a story involving Mr. Uppity tells of how the gold belonging to the King of the Goblins was stolen. The King had hidden the gold under the mattress, which was rather silly of him: he should have kept it in the royal piggy bank.Christmas Surprise! (the first appearance of Tenth) was released on its own between Waves Two and Three, and Dr. Thirteenth after Wave Three to coincide with her first formal episode. Mr. Brawler · Mr. No · Little Miss Brilliant · Little Miss Busy-Body · Little Miss Carefree · Little Miss Careful · Little Miss Loud · Little Miss Pretty · Little Miss Prim · Little Miss Show-Off · Little Miss Yes Dr. Eleventh has Eleven and River Song trying to retrieve "an item of great importance". Turns out it's Eleven's fez. River is not amused.

Brainwashed and Crazy: The Rani turns the Blue People into her minions and sends them after Dr. Sixth and Peri. Dr. Sixth's enraged shouting at her over this turns out to be sufficient to undo it!Constantly Curious: Little Miss Curious, as her name indicates, has an unquenchable thirst for answers to all sorts of questions, such as why the worms in Nonsenseland wear bow ties. Weird Crossover: Sure, generations of kids and adults have loved both of these franchises, but did anyone ever consider them being brought together like this? Mr. Uppity is the 11th book in the Mr. Men series by Roger Hargreaves. Mr. Uppity lives in Bigtown and he is very rich. He is rude to everybody (who call him Miserable old Uppity) until one day he meets a goblin. When he is rude to the goblin, the goblin shrinks Mr. Uppity so he can fit into a hole in a tree, and they enter the tree to meet the King of the Goblins. The goblin agrees to shrink Mr. Uppity if he is rude to somebody. This happens until Mr. Uppity is nice. In the end, he's still rich, but now he's very popular. He most frequently uses the words, "Please" and "Thank you." At the end of the book, Hargreaves tells the readers: "Thank you for reading this story, and if you're ever thinking about being rude to somebody, please keep a sharp lookout for goblins." Limited Special Ultimate Collector's Edition: Dr. Thirteenth arrived to coincide with the debut of her television counterpart, and thus was initially published as a larger-sized "Limited Edition" hardcover with gold foil detailing on a teal cover (it also had the actual Doctor Who logo on the front, another change from the others). While Christmas Surprise! was also a hardcover, it was otherwise a standard-format book. Lighter and Softer: While Doctor Who has long been handled as a children's (in its original 1963-89 run) or family show (2005-onwards), it's rarely shied away from violent action, suspense, and outright horror elements. By design, this series presents a cuddlier version of the various heroes and villains, though there's a lot of deadly peril in each one and Never Say "Die" is averted.

Gentle Giant: Mr. Tall is very sensitive and self-conscious about his height, and has to be convinced by the other Mr. Men that his long legs are an advantage. Even Evil Has Standards: Mr. Brawler/Mr. Crosspatch may be violent, but he knows that it's wrong to hit a woman. The Christmas Letter is a Mr. Men and Little Miss special Christmas episode. It was first broadcast in 1998.

Fake Crossover: This series is a whimsical recasting of Doctor Who characters and typical plotlines into a lighthearted children's book universe, not meant as canon to say the least! Both Mr Impossible's Lesson and Little Miss Shy And The Fairy Godmother involve Little Miss Shy being put through a gratuitous act of cruelty from one of the meaner characters (Mr. Snooty in the former, and Little Miss Bossy and Little Miss Naughty in the latter) and getting help via magical means. The key difference is that in the former, Mr. Snooty shows some honor at the end and thanks her along with Mr. Bump and Mr. Clumsy for preventing his house from burning down while in the latter, Little Miss Bossy and Little Miss Naughty receive little, if any repercussions for bullying Little Miss Shy for blushing. Nice Guy: Most of the characters not listed under Jerkass could count, but it's most prominent with Mr. Happy, Mr. Perfect, Mr. Good, Little Miss Sunshine, Little Miss Helpful and Little Miss Hug. Animated Adaptation: To promote the first wave of books, Dr. Twelfth was adapted into a storybook short read by Michelle Gomez, the actress who plays Missy. Mr. Strong's defining characteristic is his incredible physical strength. He lifts an entire barn, flips it upside down to fill it with water from a river, and carries the now much heavier barn to put out the fire consuming a farmer's cornfield. All without breaking a sweat.
