I don't get it, quite simply because, at the end of The End of Time, it says series 5 will air in spring. Now, I am terrible with the seasons and whether, but isn't Spring around May/June/July? Ugh, to Wikipedia I go and look it up myself.

Well, apprantly, in most regions spring "officlally" begins around March 21st, almost into April. Then why does it say on the wiki that series 5 will be in Febuary? That's later winter. But as seen, after David Tennant's finale, it clearly said spring (so it would air around April/May). And where did the Febuary confirmation come from? All sources are telling me is spring, not Febuary. Then again, they do have a trailer already.

...However, they're still filming from my knowledge, so it certainly won't be Febuary.

Yea new seasons usually starts around April in the UK and then fall'ish in the US

"Rose" 26 March 2005

"New Earth" 15 April 2006

"Smith and Jones" 31 March 2007

"Partners in Crime" 5 April 2008 Geffe71 18:38, January 4, 2010 (UTC)

It was me who wrote that it would air in February because at the time a writer who had been confirmed to be writing an episode for the new series had confirmed that it would air in February when he obviously must have got confused and meant that his episode is being filmed then possibly.

I noticed that there is a March, April, March, April pattern going on there. Looking at that, the last time a full new series aired, it was April 5. Going by the pattern, maybe series 5 will air in Early of mid-March? Delton Menace 19:27, January 4, 2010 (UTC)

"Rose" was aired on the last Saturday in March, "New Earth" was aired on the third Saturday in April (which was a winter Olympic year, if anything has to do with it), "Smith and Jones" was aired on the last Saturday in March, and "Partners in Crime" was aired on the first Saturday in April (which was a leap year). with that said, i foresee a March 27 or April 3rd air-date, most likely the 27th to coincide with the 5 year anniversary of the series being revived. I am just going by the pattern, it could be mid March or April for all we know Geffe71 19:53, January 4, 2010 (UTC) --in hindsightm the olympics and leap year had nothing to do with the airdate

I am going to do with the pattern, too. It is always March, April, March, April, and the March would coincide with the revival, too. Delton Menace 20:41, January 4, 2010 (UTC)

Thats what I am thinking for April maybe the last epsidoe will be broadcast around my birthaday first week in July just like the finalle of series 4 and the finalle of Series 2.
