Given that holiday episodes of Doctor Who are generally lighthearted and comedic, Eve of the Daleks is what you'd be looking for.
The Tardis is going to need to be re-set. Thinking they're on a beach planet that will be a relaxing place to wait for the process, the Doctor, Yaz and Dan find themselves instead inside a storage facility with two humans and a Dalek.
The owner of Elf storage, Sarah, is frustrated being stuck at work again on New Year's Eve. Her only customer, Nick, who appears to own numerous storage lockers in the facility, has a secret crush on Sarah which is revealed over the course of the evening as everyone runs from, confronts, and dies at the lasers of the Daleks.
Die, run, re-set. There's a plan, of course, but as the clock heads towards midnight, and the time loops close for good at that hour, it's a terrible chance the Doctor and her companions take to beat the Daleks.
Though the Doctor and Yaz have dealt with the Daleks on many occasions, Dan, Sarah and Nick toss out insults which the Daleks respond to in their humorless, single minded way. It's something that the three can keep wise cracking after numerous deaths.
