The 50th anniversary special for "Doctor Who" is just around the corner so the BBC decided to release some more information on the November 23 episode to keep the anticipation growing. Matt Smith's penultimate appearance as the Doctor (accompanied by David Tennant, John Hurt, Billie Piper and Jenna Coleman) is entitled "The Day of the Doctor." We also get to see the official posters for the upcoming special as well. Does that wall behind John Hurt say "Bad Wolf"?

Here is an excerpt from the official press release announcing the title of the 50th anniversary special: 

50 YEARS OF DOCTOR WHO CULMINATING IN 'THE DAY OF THE DOCTOR'

The countdown starts here as the BBC reveals its plans to take over TV and radio to mark the Doctor's 50th anniversary

With special programs planned across the BBC the celebrations will peak on 23 November with the anniversary episode, revealed as 'The Day of the Doctor'.  Starring Matt Smith, David Tennant, Jenna Coleman with Billie Piper and John Hurt, the special for BBC One has been confirmed as feature length with 75 minutes of adventure. 

Matt Smith, who plays the Doctor, said: 

"The Day of the Doctor is nearly here!  Hope you all enjoy.  There's lots more coming your way, as the countdown to the 50th begins now."

Each channel will be home to unique content, celebrating the wealth of history and talent from the last 50 years.

BBC Two will broadcast a number of new commissions, focusing on telling the story behind the show.  For one night only, Professor Brian Cox will take an audience of celebrity guests and members of the public on a journey into the wonderful universe of the Doctor, from the lecture hall of the Royal Institution of Great Britain (1x60mins).  Drawing on the latest theories as well as 200 years of scientific discoveries and the genius of Einstein, Brian tries to answer the classic questions raised by the Doctor - can you really travel in time?  Does extra-terrestrial life exist in our galaxy?  And how do you build something as fantastical as the TARDIS?
