Apparently Disney+ has essentially leaked the exact time. Since this is being touted as a simultaneous worldwide premiere and Disney+ says the finale will go up at 11AM PT in the US, that means 7PM for the UK.

If you don't want to sit around figuring out what that means for your time zone, here's a TimeAndDate event page for that time.

That's super helpful, thanks - this article was frustratingly vague.

As someone who goes to the cinema releases, this is a good move. I liked being in the cinema at midnight but I would have hated trying to get there for 8am and I'm sure the staff would too. 4pm(ish) is much more reasonable.

From the Radio times announcement:

The Doctor is doomed, Belinda is lost, Ruby is trapped, UNIT is powerless, the Unholy Trinity rule supreme and the Underverse is rising.

I think that "unholy trinity" has been mentioned before, but... "the Underverse"? What the heck?

Edited to add: Thought I'd heard something like that before...

I did NOT have "Trinity Wells, Supervillain" on my season Bingo card...

Oh shit, you're right — it's the actual Trinity! She's going to climb out of the screen like Lux and Sadako, isn't she?
