A BBC America press release has confirmed that Episode 12 of Series 6 is called Closing Time!
The episode is scheduled to air in both the UK and the US on Saturday 24th September and is written by Gareth Roberts.
It’ll also feature the return of James Corden as Craig Owens from The Lodger, and an old, old enemy of the Doctor’s will also be back. The Daily Star reported the title earlier this week, but will their claimed Ep 13 title also be true?
The autumn premiere, Let’s Kill Hitler, will air next Saturday at 7:10pm on BBC One.
Break your silence in our ongoing Series 6 discussion, Silences, Rivers and Songs…
Seriously? I mean, I understand the relevance with the plot but it’s quite a bad title for an episode that doesn’t appear to be as goofy and fun as The Lodger was.
I think the goofiness or otherwise of the title depends entirely on which syllables you put the stress on.
it’s probably cos part of it is set in a shop.
Why can’t it be next Saturday :L
is it ture that the christmas titled is: Hello Nessie

In all honesty, don’t trust anything on that page apart from it starring Matt Smith and being written by Steven Moffat. We’ll most likely get an idea when filming begins next month (?) ;)
@Ryan
imdb is quite unreliable as it can be edited by anyone.
it would have been better as The Lodger: Part 2
I assume it’s Closing Time because it’s the Doctor’s last trip before he goes off to get executed? Rather fitting and ominous. Hope it has a relevant double meaning for the episode itself.
DWM recently tweeted that the title of episode 13 was five words, indicating that the Daily Star hasn’t got that one right. As for Closing Time… meh, it’ll do. It’s a rather meh-ish title.
The first thing I thought of when I read that was the list of clues from the Brilliant Book.
‘THERE WON’T BE A PUB QUIZ ON TUESDAY BECAUSE THERE WON’T BE A PUB!’
I’m guessing this clue relates to this episode.

And “502, but never 503″ refers to the time of death listed for the Doctor at Lake Silencio on the scanner in the trailer. He is killed (apparently) at 5:02, and so will never see 5:03.
Aha! That makes sense. I was speculating it was something to do with the episode set in a creepy hotel (a missing room number or something). 5:02. I hadn’t picked up on that.
