The Waters of Mars New BBC One Television Trailer

The BBC’s second Television trailer for the upcoming Doctor Who Special The Waters of Mars, written by Phil Ford with Russell T Davies, was broadcast last night on BBC One around the United Kingdom and Ireland for the first time. Phil Ford is now the second writer, with Russell T Davies being the first, to have contributed to Doctor Who, Torchwood and The Sarah Jane Adventures over the past couple of years.

David Tennant is joined in The Waters of Mars by Lindsay Duncan as one-off companion Adelaide, leader of Bowie Base One on Mars, for the Tenth Doctor’s penultimate story. After The Waters of Mars, the Tenth Doctor returns for his final two episodes, both written by Russell T Davies, sometime around the Christmas period on BBC One and BBC HD.

The Tenth Doctor recently returned to the Doctor Who universe for The Sarah Jane Adventures story The Wedding of Sarah Jane Smith, written by Gareth Roberts, broadcast in October on BBC One. The Waters of Mars will be dedicated to the late Barry Letts, the producer of Doctor Who throughout the Jon Pertwee era of the early 1970s, who passed away early October.
