From Unreality TV: Doctor Who Christmas Special: First clues as to what to expect!

ETA: And the Official BBC Press Release

*sighs* I'm not very excited about these prospects. Doesn't really sound like my cuppa. I suppose Moffat could have something up his sleeve to make it work but I'm less enthusiastic about the whole "christmassy" aspect of a Christmas episode. Unless it has some good crazy-alien reason for eg, the Doctor being visited by three ghosts or whatever, or unless it's a real re-imagining of the original with a good twist and a mystery of some sort, I'm not holding my breath. I suppose I just have to hope it isn't cringe-worthy. :(
