Oh I always say I won’t do it again… and then I get excited about new Doctor Who. And yeah, I’m doing it again. Right now. As I type.
Anyway, it’s just been confirmed that BBC America will share the same air date for the show’s eight season – Saturday, August 23rd. It will kick off with a feature-length episode called Deep Breath.
It has also been confirmed over at Doctor Who TV that every episode’s writer and director is revealed except for the tenth episode which remains a secret…. could this be a big reveal or just an oversight? Guess we’ll know soon enough, meanwhile, here’s the list…

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
