Official Synopsis Released for DOCTOR WHO: THE DAY OF THE DOCTOR

Would it be too horrible to say “Who-ray”? The synopsis for the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Special Doctor Who: The Day of the Doctor is here, and it is wonderfully oblique. Spoilerphobes need not fear too much; what has been revealed are only three exceptionally vague storylines set, apparently, in three different times and/or spaces, and one of them is actually space. WHICH WE LOVE.

The Doctors embark on their greatest adventure in this 50th Anniversary Special: in 2013, something terrible is awakening in London’s National Gallery; in 1562, a murderous plot is afoot in Elizabethan England; and somewhere in space an ancient battle reaches its devastating conclusion. All of reality is at stake as the Doctor’s own dangerous past comes back to haunt him.

Okay, we’re ready for the clips! The trailers! COME ON, WE’RE READY!

Doctor Who: The Day of the Doctor starring Matt SmithDavid TennantJenna-Louise ColemanBillie PiperJoanna Page, Jemma Redgrave and John Hurt will air November 23rd on BBC America.
