Who News: Christmas Special Filming Details Confirmed

Matt SmithThe Eleventh Doctor's final journey begins- have you prepared for the moment?
The BBC have today released an update on the production of this year's fateful Doctor Who Christmas Special. Scheduled to broadcast a month after the blockbuster 50th Anniversary Special, the second celebratory voyage in the TARDIS will mark Matt Smith's final adventure as the Eleventh Doctor, with his regeneration looming.

Of course, where there is an end, there must always be a new beginning in Doctor Who. Peter Capaldi's casting as the Twelfth Doctor was met with a raptorous reception last month and no doubt his debut as the latest incarnation will be a much-anticipated climactic moment in the new Special. BBC One today revealed a photo of Matt at the Christmas episode's read-through (above), before confirming that the as of yet unnamed instalment will shoot from this Sunday, September 8th.

Doctor Who returns with its blockbuster 50th Anniversary Special on BBC One and in cinemas worldwide this November 23rd. The 2013 Christmas Special will broadcast on BBC One this Christmas Day.

(P.S. If you're wondering just how Matt's lack of a quiff atop his head will be dealt with come December 25th, then fret not- he'll don an Eleventh Doctor wig at filming!)
