During the events of Terry Pratchett's Hogfather (2006) played by Shend

The Hogfather is making his rounds delivering toys when he suddenly evaporates. Later, Susan and Death see a boar being chased by the Auditors shaped as dogs. Susan jumps onto the boar that will become the Hogfather and they cross an icy bridge which collapses after they cross it. Death appears behind the Auditor dogs and kills them. The sun comes up and the boar transforms into the Hogfather, who takes back his job from Death.
