ABC Australia has become the first broadcaster to confirm the scheduling of the 2011 Doctor Who Christmas Story.
The episode will be shown on ABC1 on Boxing Day (26 December), repeating last year's schedule when the episode was fast tracked to the Commonwealth just a few hours after its UK début.
No transmission date has yet been confirmed for the UK, the US or Canada.
In January ABC2 will will begin a repeat run of the entire revived series starting with Christopher Eccleston’s first appearance as the Doctor in Rose and running through every episode in order, including the Christmas specials.
