Part of the magic of Christmas is getting to sit down, together with your loved ones and celebrate another year together…the other part of the magic of Christmas is fleeing from your loved ones after being forced to tolerate another year together.

Well if you are looking for something to flee to, why not ring in the holidays with the Doctor Who Christmas Special – The Husbands of River Song – at selected theatres in the US on Monday, December 28 and Tuesday, December 29 courtesy of BBC Worldwide and in partnership with Fathom Events.

The screening also includes an exclusive interview with Alex Kingston, as well as a 15-minute behind-the-scenes “making of” featurette starring Peter Capaldi, Steven Moffat and more.

What’s more, costumes are mandatory! No, wait not mandatory, the other one…erh…not quite mandatory…optionatory!

The Husbands of River Song sees the TARDIS parked on a snowy village street, covered in icicles, awaiting its next adventure. Time traveler River Song meets her husband’s new incarnation, in the form of Peter Capaldi, for the first time this Christmas. River Song made her first Doctor Who appearances in 2008 in Silence in the Library and Forest of the Dead and has appeared in 15 episodes to date.

Soumya Sriraman, EVP Film, Home Entertainment and Licensing for BBC Worldwide North America said:

“The return of River Song will be an incredible treat for Whovians heading to the theaters this December to celebrate the holiday season with their Doctor Who community,” said Soumya Sriraman, EVP Film, Home Entertainment and Licensing for BBC Worldwide North America.

Fathom Events CEO John Rubey added:

“The Doctor Who fans always come out to movie theaters in full force and we expect nothing less for the first-ever big screen showing of the Christmas special. Experiencing this special event as part of a community is the best kind of viewing party!” 

You can find out the full list of the 300 participating theatres and book tickets via the Fathom Events site or participating theatres box offices.
