Time to start making your Christmas TV plans, as BBC One has begun unveiling its festive schedule.
Doctor Who is now confirmed to be airing in an earlier slot at 5.15pm on Christmas Day.
Titled 'The Husbands of River Song', the special will see the Doctor (Peter Capaldi) and River Song (Alex Kingston) facing off against a mechanical marauder.
It is the first time since 2013 that Kingston will reprise her role as the time-traveller - who also happens to be the Doctor's wife.
She'll be joined in her latest outing by guest stars Greg Davies and Matt Lucas, playing - respectively - King Hydroflax and Nardole.
Meanwhile, the channel has also confirmed that Sherlock will air at 9pm on New Years' Day.
