We finally have an announcement of a title for the Doctor Who 2012 Christmas Special, and that title happens to be “The Snowmen.” We also now have a trailer!
Silurians and Sontarans appear within, as does erstwhile Ninth Doctor Richard E. Grant (if you don’t know what that means, don’t ask… it’s complicated). Most excitingly, this episode features Jenna-Louise Coleman from “Asylum Of The Daleks”… playing a new (?) character named Clara. (Or is she Oswin Oswald? I’m confused. Which is exactly what they want).
Look for this episode to air internationally on Christmas Day. Here’s the official BBC description of it:
Following the epic mid-season finale, the Doctor gets in the holiday spirit in the all-new Christmas special written by lead writer and executive producer Steven Moffat (Sherlock). Accompanied by his newest companion, played by Jenna-Louise Coleman, the Doctor’s latest adventure through space and time sees him once again crossing paths with the homo-reptilian Silurian Madame Vastra (Neve McIntosh) and her cohort Jenny (Catrin Stewart). The Doctor Who Christmas Special premieres December 25, 9:00pm ET.
