If you weren’t already aware, there are big events in store this weekend for Doctor Who fans! On Saturday, November 23rd, our Nerdist and BBC America friends will be conducting a pre-show Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Special prior to the global simulcast of “The Day of the Doctor,” which brings together Matt Smith, David Tennant, John Hurt, Jenna Coleman, and Billie Piper. The Nerdist crew will be counting down to the special episode itself, which airs at 11:50am PT.

Hosted by Veronica Belmont and featuring a bevy of special guests, the pre-pre show will begin at 11:15 am PT on BBC America’s YouTube channel, then at 11:30 am PT, the pre-show will begin on BBC America, the television channel as well as BBC America’s YouTube channel, then following the special itself, there will be a post-show wrap-up on YouTube at 1:00 pm PT. It’s like a Doctor Who sandwich on Nerdist bread. Read on for more!

This can all be viewed from the comfort of your own home! Enthusiasm for all things Time Lord is a must, and if you dress up as your favorite character, all the better. Do this immediately! The fate of the universe, time, and unlimited rice pudding depends on it!

And don’t forget … Beyond the Marquee’s own Lindalee Rose, star of the internationally-known Lindalee’s Doctor Who Review series is in attendance in London at the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Celebration thanks to The Nerdist.  Stay tuned to the following pages for her video updates as they become available!
