It seems as if Doctor Who are more eager for this year’s Christmas Special — aptly titled A Christmas Carol — than the actual Christmas holiday. The special will provide the grand finale for a Doctor Who marathon that begins on midnight, December 24, and ends with the premiere of the Christmas Special at 9 PM Eastern.
This week, BBC America released a brand new trailer for the special sporting a clever tagline, “Christmastime Can Be Rewritten.”
