BBC Worldwide Channels has announced that the latest episodes of the BBC?s popular sci-fi drama Doctor Who will be coming to BBC Entertainment in South Africa one day after its UK premiere transmission.

The second part of Series Seven (eight episodes) will air on UK screens on 30 March 2013 and will transmit the following day on BBC Entertainment in South Africa. The first episode is written by the show?s lead writer and executive producer, Steven Moffat, and directed by Colm McCarthy, whose previous credits include Hustle, Spooks and Endeavour. Later episodes are written by Mark Gatiss and Neil Gaiman among others.

Jon Farrar, VP programming, EMEA, BBC Worldwide Channels, said: ?It?s a very important part of our programming strategy to bring our acquired content to air as close to its UK transmission as possible. Doctor Who is a hugely popular programme and I?m delighted we are able to bring the Doctor?s latest adventures to South African audiences just one day after the UK premiere transmission.?
