Janis once thanked a number of humans for listening to "The Goblin Song", as all the proceeds would go to Children in Need, and that would mean that she would get to eat more children. When she realised that this was not, in fact, the case, she briefly considered promising to not eat any more children if people continued to support "The Goblin Song", then decided against it, and asked somebody to pass her some twins, which she ate.

While the Goblin band sang the song in preparation of feeding Lulubelle to the Goblin King, the Fifteenth Doctor and Ruby Sunday fell on to their conveyor belt. Needing a distraction, the Doctor implored "Janice", as he called her, to restart as he and Ruby took over her vocals until they escaped with Lulubelle. (TV: )
