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.
