Christmas Special The Husbands of River Song
It’s Christmas Day on a remote human colony and the Doctor is hiding from Christmas Carols and Comedy Antlers. But when a crashed spaceship calls upon the Doctor for help, he finds himself recruited into River Song’s squad and hurled into a fast and frantic chase across the galaxy.
King Hydroflax (Greg Davies) is furious, and his giant Robot bodyguard is out of control and coming for them all! Will Nardole (Matt Lucas) survive? And when will River Song work out who the Doctor is?
All will be revealed on a starliner full of galactic super-villains and a destination the Doctor has been avoiding for a very long time.

December 26th, 2015 - 4:28amAMAZING EPISODE! I hope Moffat will find a way to have River come back somehow. Made my Christmas so amazing!

December 23rd, 2015 - 11:42pmWe always knew that River was going to come back. She said so, spoilers, remember. Glad she is coming back. Now we need to find out about the Doctor’s daughter, Jenny.

December 23rd, 2015 - 4:38pmBah, humbug to haters of River Song! I’m so excited she’s back! I would love to see her as his companion in the new season – know it won’t happen, but still…
BBC Shop has the Complete David Tenant & Complete Matt Smith, if they ever get a Complete River Song, I’m so there!
Merry Christmas all!

December 21st, 2015 - 11:02amAfter the Raven episode I am now liking the 12th Doctor. I’m soooo glad that Clara is not leaving. I don’t like “Me” character at all. This series was taking a dark turn and I’m hoping that is changing. River is my favorite character along with the 11th Docor and Rory and Amy. Bringing River back for Christmas special, brilliant! I’m looking forward to the comic relief. The 12rh Doctor snapping his fingers and getting a new screwdriver..perfect!

December 21st, 2015 - 5:59pmWhat on earth are you talking about? Clara’s gone, dead and never coming back. The Doctor can’t even remember her.

December 22nd, 2015 - 2:06amYeh she is gone she flew the new tardis back to Galifrey so they could put her back in her death moment…she is already playing the queen on another show..I dont like clara or Me..

December 22nd, 2015 - 8:23pmAs much as I am going to LOVE this episode.It makes no sense.River and the Doctor have opposite time streams as they said so many times in the 11th Doctor era.River regenerated in let’s kill hitler.So did river lie.Was that the first time she saw him.But she knows him in the Christmas special.I do not understand did she escape from the library?

December 18th, 2015 - 12:16amStrangely looking forward to this episode after last Christmas (pun intended)

December 14th, 2015 - 5:28pmI am very excited for this episode? I love everything River!
doctor no more
December 13th, 2015 - 1:14pmglad to see river back,such a brilliant strong character,liked all the episodes shes been in,hopefully she will make this episode watchable.trouble is the last two doctors she encountered have been dashing young looking men,somehow cant see the chemistry between her and an old miserable fellow! what would happen if she was to meet the first or second doctors.lets have an episode where she lands in the 8th doctors time stream to mix things up a bit…merry xmas..

December 15th, 2015 - 10:04pmShe is in big finish going to meet the 8th doctor

December 21st, 2015 - 6:00pmAlex Kingston is a lot closer to Peter Capaldi’s age than either of his predecessors. It will be a different chemistry, but no less ridiculous than what’s gone before.

December 11th, 2015 - 6:31pmOf course when I said Susan was the Doctors daughter I meant Grand daughter,
Joy_Marie
December 10th, 2015 - 5:00pmI’m excited to see Peter Capaldi’s Docter with River Song. She always said that “her Doctor was older” so it just makes sense. I love that Peter closed the Tardis door by snapping his fingers! 🙂
I would say that I am excited about the Christmas special, but being as I live in the US and the closest theater playing it is about 3 hours away on a Tuesday night, I don’t know if or when I’ll see it. 🙁

December 21st, 2015 - 3:11pmbut it will be playing on TV on BBCA Christmas day I think

December 7th, 2015 - 8:55pmIf they are into bringing people back how about the doctors daughter Susan? Haven’t heard anything about her since William Hartnell. And who was Susan’s mom ? Sorry about the pun. It’s time she was explained, sorry another pun!

December 5th, 2015 - 5:24pmDavid Tennant and Matt Smith, according the Radio Times, are absolutely fuming about Alex Kingston being back as River Song and working alongside Peter Capaldi.

December 6th, 2015 - 10:52pmWhy would they care about Alex working with Peter it doesn’t make any sense, they left the show of their own accord, what happens after is none of their concern.
