Gap

I wonder if the bosses understand kids. If Who didn't have anything between Revenge and Chistmas 76, I would have got interested in something elae.
 
They’re saying that if Doctor Who had taken a break after “Revenge of the Cybermen” (which aired April-May 1975) and hadn’t come back until Christmas 1976, they’d have drifted away from Doctor Who.

However, the show has had between-seasons periods this long before, and I don’t mean the sixteen years.
 
Yeah, isn't this a pretty standard gap between the end of the regular season and the Christmas special?
 
Back through the 70s Who aired around 24 plus episodes every year, so there really never was a time when Who felt it was gone to quickly and for too long from our tv screens, but what might have helped was having 40/50 year old plus old actors back in those days, who had stronger knees to help them coop with such a larger number of yearly episodes. Lol
