It looks like it's going to be July 6-10 for BBC one.

A few days after the radio plays but still 2 weeks before the BBCamerica.

Hi Gary, welcome to Doctor Who Hideout :D. It does seem like the BBC will be airing it on the Sixth (to the Tenth) of July. Digital Spy claims that Torchwood will begin on the Sixth. Still, we’ll find out tomorrow when the information for that week is released by the BBC!
