Doctor Who's Russell T Davies reveals important dates for fans
Davies has given fans three dates in November to look out for, none of which are the air dates of the 60th anniversary specials.
As fans continue to wait for the air dates of Doctor Who's 60th anniversary specials to be announced, showrunner Russell T Davies has given them some other dates to look out for.
Writing in his Letter from the Showrunner in this month's edition of Doctor Who Magazine, Davies gave fans three important dates coming up over the next month - Wednesday 1st November, Friday 17th November and Thursday 23rd November.
However, he was also quick to clarify that "none of those is the date of the Specials’ transmission!", although details of exactly what they are dates for remain scarce.
The only other detail Davies revealed was to say that "none of them is a date to book a hotel for, since we don’t have any live events planned. Sorry! We concentrated our fire on things everyone can see."

In his letter, Davies also hinted that we could be seeing the first "brief" episode of recently announced behind-the-scenes show Doctor Who: Unleashed soon, as it will reportedly arrive "well BEFORE" the first of the 60th anniversary specials.
Davies said: "But you’ll know about Unleashed by now, yes? Although you won’t know it’ll be popping up unexpectedly, briefly, well BEFORE The Star Beast is shown. What? How? Oh just wait!"

Davies also teased in this month's issue of the magazine that there is a "genuine in-universe crossover" coming up, which will connect Doctor Who with his "ITV drama from earlier this year, Nolly, which is truly canonical and official".
Fans already knew to look out for future spin-offs from the long-running sci-fi show, but it's unlikely that many were expecting the establishment of the "RTD universe".
