Now less than a week to go before the newest Doctor Who adventure hits Australian screens.
This should get you in the mood -here’s a preview of Doctor Who: Confidential (which isn’t scheduled to run here).
The “A Christmas Carol” episode airs 7:30pm Sunday on ABC1.
Corrected: And ABC1 also plays Doctor Who At The Proms at 5pm Sunday.

I think the reason the Confidentials only get aired in their cutdown form is due to music rights. The full originals use a lot of current commercial hits which need record company licensing.
It’s probably too expensive to get worldwide licensing. The ABC and DVD versions have most music replaced with a generic ‘filler’ soundtrack.
Fans of David Tennant may also wish to catch the Catherine Tate Christmas Special on ABC1 Friday 24th at 9pm, where he plays one of the parts.
You’ve got a typo in the day for the Xmas special under Coming Soon.
Yeah Ben what is your problem? Why bother reading and posting comment the story since you clearly don’t like the show, where’s your Christmas spirit?
Can’t wait for this one and good on the ABC for showing it almost straight away – well done!
Happy Festivus everyone – beware the Festivus pole!!
@Ben You’re as constant as the North Star. If anything you’re the joke. Getting off on putting down a show that does no harm to no-one.
According to the ABC1 TV Guide, it looks like Doctor Who At The Proms will now screen at 5pm on Sunday, David.
Something fresh on Christmas, better then repeats of Christmas movies, and Christmas specials of TV shows. Can’t wait.
This is so fantastic that the ABC have truly “fast-tracked” the Christmas Episode of Who this year! Well done ABC!!!! Now, show it in HD!!!
The “Doctor Who Confidentials” run for abour 45mins in the UK, but we only get “cut-down” versions on the DVDs.
What happened to the 5pm time tor the Proms? Was that wrong or did they change their mind? No need to rush for the answer.
If there was any doubt as to whether Doctor Who is made for childern and is total rubbish seeing him on a sleigh ride should now confirm it for all. What a complete joke.
I cant wait – and for the first time screened the night after the BBC screen Yeah hope this is the look of the future for Australia
Thanks for that David, but why doesn’t the confidential air here? Sometimes it’s better than the episode IMO and we get a cut down 15 minutes version at it’s best. Why don’t they do like the UK and put it on ABC2 right after Doctor Who airs on ABC1?
Isn’t the Proms airing at 5pm Sunday? Not 1pm. According to ABC.net anyway.
Sucks we don’t get Confidential, BBC iPlayer will probably have it.
It is definately beginning to feel a lot like Smithmas!!
Shame we can’t get the confidential on one of the Platforms! Be nice to at least see it on iview!! It would be worth it just to see Matt Smith and Karen Gillan singing while Arthur Darville (who’s dad was in Fine Young Cannibals and is in band himself, plays a pretty mean piano).
