Doctor Who, beaming to a screen near you!

The long awaited Doctor who special "The Waters of Mars" is close at hand.
The wait has finally come to an end! Actor David Tennant announced that The forthcoming special The Waters of Mars will be broadcast on Sunday, November 15th at 7:00pm.
The episode, which stars David Tennant (as The Doctor) features acclaimed British stage Lindsay Duncan is the second Doctor Who special to be screened this year following up on the smash succeses of The Next Doctor and Planet of the Dead. This years specials serve as Tennant's swan song as he departs the show this year, and allow him to portray the Doctor in a deeper and darker way than he has ever before been seen just in time for Matt Smith to take over next year.

I'm not a big follower of the show, but my brother is. He's been a fan of the good Doctor's for decades! I'm sure he'll be thrilled, Tennant is one of his favorites.

I love Tennant, I'm pretty sad to see him go but damn his final episodes should be great. Congrats on the promotion too multi.

I've been a fan of Dr.Who Since the first Doctor I was 3 then we moved back to the states. next time I saw the Dr. was just in time to see the Third doctor take over and left when the 4th took over .
caught up with him on PBS then they stopped then Sci-Fi showed the new Dr. Who then nothing
Thank God for BBC America,

yeah, it's hard to find here, I mostly watch it online.

Guardian brings up a good point, Georgia. If you can't stand waiting around for BBC America to broadcast your favorite Timelord, it'll probably be up on YouTube within 24 hours of the initial broadcast. Just search the title. That's how I've been able to see the good Doctor an eniter season before anyone of my other friends here in the States!

Can't wait to see the two-part finale. John Simms is returning as everybody's favorite Timelord arch-nemesis, the Master! And yes, Tennant is moving on at the end (cue regeneration sequence) and newcomer Matt Smith is taking the helm. Not to sure about him, but if new Executive Producer Stephen Mofet likes him...

thanks i didn't relize they posted whole shows on youtube, only clips...
georgia49th - 11/1/2009, 9:10 PM
The episodes are broken up into 10 to 15 minute segments, so if you don't mind dealing with a bunck og 'mini-sodes' (LOL)...
loganoneil - 11/1/2009, 9:12 PM
yeah either you tube or veoh, both work. Funnily enough I heard we get to see some episodes of the next season before the brits because of interruptions from the world cup so it might be them watching it online a little next season.

veoh is full episodes logan, it's a sweet place they even have Viva Black Pool! another Tennant show.

Yeah, saw Torchwood's 'Children of Earth' and all of 'The Sarah Jane Adventures' so far the day after their initial UK broadcasts (it's a shame that SciFi dropped it...)
loganoneil - 11/1/2009, 9:14 PM
was Children of Earth good? I never really got into Torchwood despite my some what man crush on jack.
thwhtGuardian - 11/1/2009, 9:17 PM
@Guardian Children of Earth was great!
It's about time this special came out!

This news has made my day! I've been waiting on a release date for this for ages!

Cheers Guardian!

Guardian - FANTASTIC! Probably one of their BEST to date! It has a really twisted ending and you get to see the team relying on their wits and not the technology of the hub.
loganoneil - 11/2/2009, 7:31 AM
Sweet, I'll have to check it out.
