MTV
has 'Doctor Who: A Christmas Carol' Review (The Spoiler-Free Early Edition!), ...while the Christmas Special is filled with supremely talented actors in guest roles, it's clear right from the start that this episode isn't just a vehicle for getting familiar faces — and voices, in the case of opera diva Katherine Jenkins — a "Doctor Who" cameo.
