December 19th for the U.S.!!?? Why not November 16th?
Waters of Mars Airdate?
- Thread starter Mitty
- Start date
Because as I mentioned earlier the US networks set their schedules farther in advance than the BBC appears able to do.
Also Dec. 19 is exactly one week before Dec. 26. Do the math -- it looks to me that BBC America is setting up a three-week run.

Well some of us in the US will be watching it on or around November 16th.
Don't worry, I'll also be preordering the Blu Rays as soon as Amazon puts them up. I've already looked but Amazon doesn't seem to have them up yet.
While that would be cool (and I hope your right), I think we will be seeing the BBC America airings of the last two specials at the end of January, with the DVD release to come a week later on February 2nd.
With both Planet of the Dead and Torchwood: Children of Earth the DVD releases came the week after they aired on BBC America. I think that pattern will hold for the final two specials.
Again, I hope your right.
Pretty sure I read somewhere not too long ago that the 15th was when the new series would begin.
Did anyone see Tennant on GMTV telling us about the airdate? I'm looking forward to it a great deal! There are some (new?) images here:

and an interview on how it was to play the the Doctor's final scenes here:

Spoilery, of course!

Whoops, my bad! Misread December for November. It shouldn't take 34 days to get to the US, that's true.
Certainly an innovative NA fan can find a way to watch it sooner. 
Random tidbit that may have been mentioned before but my friend just noticed it and I don't think it merits a new thread:
"The Waters of Mars" is an anagram for "Wars of the Master."

Really? Great! Forget Doctor Who, it's a new series of Top Gear that has me excited.
Boom! That just happened!
Sigh.
DW isn't full of deliberately hidden anagrams no matter how much some people claim it is.
It's called Waters Of Mars because it's set on Mars and has Water in it.
But there are always Master anagrams! Since the days of Antony Ainley! It has to be true!
Tremas and Giles Restram agree!
^I remember Tremas from "The Keeper of Trakken." What is "Giles Restram" an anagram for?
Ooh, this is looking scary now - a few clips from the Guardian website. Not seen the middle one before.
I think this is gonna be putting kids off their vegetables.

Ooh, wow, that's gonna be one heel of a ride.
"State your name, rank and intention!"
"The Doctor, doctor, fun."

It was actually "Sir Giles Estram" in "The King's Demons." Giles isn't important; the last name is an anagram of "Master."
