Well, I didn't have that on my Bank Holiday Bingo Card. A quick skit interrupting the title sequence, the TARDIS whizzing through some old MotD clips before settling on a quick scene with Gary Lineker, a cybernetic Ian Wright and Ncuti Gatwa - who may even have been in character, but it was such a whirlwind of surrealism I can't remember! They only ruined the illusion slightly by running the real titles immediately after the 'fake' ones... There was nothing to signpost it in advance and it was barely mentioned afterwards - very odd.
Edited to add - for what it's worth, yes, he's explicitly playing the Doctor here which means this is arguably a canonical scene?
