The Timey-Wimey of Doctor Who and The Nerdist: Tribute to Time Travel May Help Whovian Impatience


As the BBC continues its heartless withholding of confirmation of the premiere date of Season 7 of Doctor Who, BBC America is making a valiant effort to appease us by offering up weekly Doctor Who specials that feature thematic Doctor Who clips and interviews of fans, cast, and production members, followed by a Nerdist special on the same theme.

This week’s offering is about time travel. Ironic, since IT’S ABOUT TIME WE GOT THAT SEASON 7 PREMIERE DATE.

What is TIMEY-WIMEY? Ask ARTHUR DARVILL (Rory Williams): “It might make you go a bit wibbly-wobbly… but in a good way!”

Watch the World Premiere of an All New Special, THE TIMEY-WIMEY OF DOCTOR WHO *** Saturday Aug 18 at 9/8c *** immediately followed by the World Premiere of THE NERDIST: TRIBUTE TO TIME TRAVEL at 10/9c, only on BBC America.

When the Doctor’s around, tomorrow is yesterday, yesterday is tomorrow and 18th century France is in your fireplace. Confused yet?

Join celebrity Whovians – 30 Rock’s Scott Adsit, comedian Eugene Mirman, BuzzFeed’s Jack Shepherd, plus Alison Haislip, Natalie Morales, Wired’s Adam Rogers and Nerdist’s Jonah Ray and Chloe Dykstra – as they try to make sense of all the “wibbly wobbly, timey-wimey… stuff.”
