The UK’s The Sun newspaper has reported that Doctor Who’s 50th Anniversary Special on 23 November 2013 will be broadcast simultaneously throughout the world to avoid leaks. Set to air at 8.00 p.m. on BBC1 in the UK, it will be shown on ABC1 at 5.00 a.m. on 24 November in Queensland, and 6.00 a.m. in those eastern Australian States sensible enough to have Daylight Savings. I have yet to see any confirmation by the ABC, although The Sun reports that all global broadcasters have agreed.

Dunno when in the US, yet, though I think the early afternoon. Maybe I’ll take a day off work.
Thanks for reblogging this!
I’m so excited about it! I might even take the day off work, so I wanted to share it. 🙂
Really wish I had a working T.A.R.D.I.S. to hop forward to 23rd November… But then don’t we all!
Wouldn’t it be great!
