BBC Unveils "Doctor Who" Christmas Special Details
by NANCY TARTAGLIONE, International Editor
26 November 2013

The BBC has outlined its holiday programming with yet more clues about Matt Smith’s last outing as "Doctor Who". The series’ Christmas episode has been titled 'The Time of the Doctor', following the Season 7 finale, 'The Name of the Doctor', and last weekend’s 'The Day of the Doctor' (along with online mini-ep, 'The Night of the Doctor').

The episode will air December 25th and mark Smith’s departure as it introduces Peter Capaldi as the 12th Time Lord.

It will also feature "Fringe‘s" Orla Brady in a new role.

The BBC synopsis goes like this:

Orbiting a quiet backwater planet, the massed forces of the universe’s deadliest species gather, drawn to a mysterious message that echoes out to the stars… Rescuing Clara from a family Christmas dinner, the Time Lord and his best friend must learn what this enigmatic signal means for his own fate and that of the universe.
