The BBC Doctor Who website has confirmed the title for the 2010 Doctor Who Christmas Special.

After months of patiently...ok...scrub that...impatiently waiting, fans can now rejoice in the comfort that the title has been revealed as: A Christmas Carol.

Show runner, Steven Moffat had the following to say on the special: 

'Oh, we're going for broke with this one. It's all your favourite Christmas movies at once, in an hour, with monsters. And the Doctor. And a honeymoon. And ... oh, you'll see. I've honestly never been so excited about writing anything!'

As with previous years, the special will be shown on Christmas Day at around 6:00pm(ish).

A short preview will be shown as part of this years Children In Need programming on BBC One, on Friday 19th November.
