BBC Proms
The Doctor Who Prom takes place this Sunday, 27th July at the Royal Albert Hall in London.
The BBC Proms, also known as The Henry Wood Promenade Concerts, take place every summer in London and have been running since 1895, with the BBC taking charge in 1927. Most famous for the Last Night of the Proms, which features patriotic music, the series takes place over an eight week period and features over 70 concerts.
The Doctor Who Prom takes place at 11am UK time and runs for about two hours. It can be heard on BBC Radio Three via FM Radio in the UK or via the BBC Website.
The concert will be hosted by Freema Agyeman and features a specially written scene starring David Tennant.

And for some more amusing Dr. Who related news:
RSC Bans Sci-Fi Autographs for Hamlet
The Royal Shakespeare Company has set limits on what fans can bring to be signed by David Tennant and Patrick Stewart during the upcoming production of Hamlet. BBC NEWS reports that sci-fi related murchandise will not be allowed for the actors to sign.
The Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC) says only programmes and other Hamlet merchandise can be autographed at the stage door. "Due to the huge amount of interest in the RSC's current production of Hamlet, only Royal Shakespeare Company or production related memorabilia will be signed by members of the company," the RSC said. "It is very flattering that there is so much interest in this production, but the sheer volume of requests means that we need to set some limits which will be as fair as possible for everyone."
Tennant and Stewart are starring in the RSC production at the Courtyard Theatre, in Stratford.
The play opens on 5 August.
