Well, it's been confirmed that BBC1 will air The Snowmen at the early timeslot of 5.15pm on Christmas Day (blame the Call The Midwife vs. Downton Abbey clash), while BBCAmerica will air in their usual 9pm timeslot instead.
Meanwhile, some new promo pictures for the Christmas special have been released ...
Loving the snowglobe theme here with Simeon and the Snowman inside as Clara and Eleven look on. There's a few other snowglobe ones to admire too.
Don't Madame Vastra and Jenny Flint look nice? I'm thrilled we're getting these two ladies back in this episode and one of Mark Gatiss's episodes for 2013.
Creepy Snowmen with great big teeth. I should also mention that Channel 4 are giving us a friendly version with The Snowman And The Snowdog also airing during the Christmas period.
Tom Ward as the very Victorian gentlemen, Captain Latimer - Clara's employer. He also has a thing for the new companion as well.
Richard E. Grant as the pretty evil Doctor Simeon. I should point out that he's rumoured to be reappearing in the Series 7 finale, so that may dictate the outcome of his fate in this one. I have a link for the rest of the pictures for this episode linked below.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/blogdrwho/articles/Day-5-The-Snowmen-New-Galleries-and-Wallpapers We're gonna need some new tags when The Snowmen airs, aren't we? I'm also really hoping we get a trailer for the second half of Series 7 after transmission of this year's Christmas special.
