Xmas Special (spoilers)

[Mitty]

Couldn't find a thread on this. Do we know anything yet about the Xmas Special? Even if there will definitely be one? If they only finished shooting before the World Tour Started, then now that the season is underway I'm guessing they will start filming it very soon now? Assuming some other news that Coleman is leaving, will this be her swan song, or might she already be gone by this and we'll get to meet the new companion?

I think this is her swan song. I've also heard rumours that the new companion might be appearing in this episode, but take that with a pinch of salt.

It hasn't been officially announced, but starts filming on September 8th.

Oh, hang on, I think I mean 1st- the first monday in September

^We get a bank holiday on the last Monday in August, which falls tomorrow this year. Earliest I can remember it being in ages.

Our holidays tend not to have names, but the calendrically equivalent one here is today.
