BBC broadcast the Christmas special on December 25, new one will be on Easter. The final three specials are rumored to be on Halloween, Christmas, and New Year's 2009. Then the new series kicks off with Matt Smith as the new Doctor in Spring 2010.

Yeah, Russel T. Davies (the show-runner, who sucks as far as i am concerned) decided to do five specials rather than a series 5 to accommodate David Tennant's schedule.

Next year though, Stephan Moffat takes over as show-runner. This is the guy that wrote Blink, Silence in the Library and Forest of the Dead, Girl in the Fireplace, and The Empty Child and Doctor Dances.

Series 6 is going to rock.

There's going to be a series 3 ?
Killing of two characters in one episode seemed pretty final ...
Trailer is looking good. :)
I just hope I don't miss a single episode this time.

/me wonders what the next doctor is like as the current one is funny.

Watch the Christmas episode, you'll see the new doctor.

I guess I must have missed the christmas episode, cause I don't remember him regenerating. In fact AFAIK he's been able to hold it of because of the hand he's kept in the tardis since his previous regeneration.

No, in the christmas ep the Cybermen thought he was the Dr. because there was a Dr. who looked the same.

It was due to the Cyberman having an imprint of the doctor. His memories where corrupted and accidentally sent back to the man holding the imprint device when he fired the "beam" at the cyberman. He thought he was the doctor and so did the cyberman.

I thought it was explained fairly well in the flash back scene.

Oh, what I got from it was that the doctor looked the same as him, and the cybermen were chasing the doctor and found this guy.
