The Doctor From Gallifrey 

Details of this year's Christmas Special were released this morning and we have to say it sounds brilliant. Last year was Doctor Who does A Christmas Carol and this year is Doctor Who does The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. Here are the plot details from the Official Website:

The special, set during World War II, sees Madge Arwell and her two children, Lily and Cyril, evacuated to a draughty old house in Dorset, where the caretaker is a mysterious young man in bow tie, and a big blue parcel is waiting for them under the tree. They are about to enter a magical new world and learn that a Time Lord never forgets his debts...

And not only does the plot sound brilliant, the list of guest stars is quite impressive. The special will star Claire Skinner (who plays the mum in Outnumbered), Bill Bailey (Comedian who appeared in Black Books and is a QI regular), Arabella Weir (from The Fast Show) and Alexander Armstrong (part of the Armstrong and Miller double-act and host of BBC shows Pointless and Epic Win). Judging by these guest-stars, the special could be very funny too! Armstrong has provided a voice for the Whoniverse before, voicing Sarah Jane's computer Mr. Smith.
