The BBC Media Centre has published a synopsis of Doctor Who’s 50th Anniversary Special, The Day of the Doctor. In Australia the episode will air early on the morning of Sunday 24 November on ABC1 and will be repeated at 7.30 p.m. that evening. The BBC’s synopsis states as follows:

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.
Written by Steven Moffat
Directed by Nick Hurran
Executive produced by Steven Moffat and Faith Penhale
Produced by Marcus Wilson
Stars: Matt Smith, David Tennant and Jenna Coleman with Billie Piper and John Hurt

Originally shown exclusively at the San Diego Comic-Con in July, fans have been disgruntled that the trailer has yet to be aired in the UK. Other sources are suggesting that the trailer will be shown before Atlantis.
UPDATE
The BBC has released a Press Release indicating that a Trailer will be shown prior to Atlantis tonight, however it will not contain any actual footage from the 50th Anniversary special. More details are available here.
