'Doctor Who': The Doctor, The Widow and the Wardrobe - prequel video
Published Tuesday, Dec 6 2011, 15:43 GMT | By Mayer Nissim | 37 comments
The BBC has unveiled a new prequel video for the upcoming Doctor Who Christmas special.
The explosive clip features Matt Smith as the Doctor with his finger on the button pleading for help from a friend.
Last month, the BBC confirmed that this year's Doctor Who Christmas special will air on December 25 at 7pm on BBC One.
The episode will feature guest appearances from Outnumbered actress Claire Skinner, as well as comedy stars Bill Bailey, The Fast Show's Arabella Weir and Alexander Armstrong.
'The Doctor, The Widow and the Wardrobe' finds Smith's Doctor in World War II-torn England with a young widow and her two children.
"Of all the Doctors, Matt Smith's is the one that was born for this time of year - so it's the best news possible that he's heading back down the chimney," showrunner Steven Moffat said.
Moffat recently confirmed that the show will move to an autumn slot during 2012.
