" Doctor Who producer Piers Wenger has revealed details of the show&amp;#039;s forthcoming sixth series. He told Collider that the US-based opening two-parter would feature scenes &amp;quot;set in New York and San Francisco&amp;quot;. &amp;quot;It is Doctor Who&amp;#039;s love letter to the States,&amp;quot; said Wenger. &amp;quot;Last year started with the Tardis crash-landing on Big Ben in London and that was an opportunity for British audiences to be reminded of [the show&amp;#039;s] British heritage. But this year, it&amp;#039;s all about America.&amp;quot; He continued: &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s all about taking the show out to the States and seeing what Doctor Who will feel like set in America and in some very iconographic parts of the...landscape.&amp;quot; Wenger also confirmed that upcoming Christmas special, &amp;#039;A Christmas Carol&amp;#039;, &amp;quot;kind of riffs on the Dickens story [of the same name]&amp;quot;. &amp;quot;There&amp;#039;s no one called Scrooge in it and it&amp;#039;s not set on Earth, but there are familiar archetypes from that story within it that will please fans of Dickens&amp;#039;s original,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;#039;A Christmas Carol&amp;#039; will air in December on BBC One. The sixth series of Doctor Who will follow in early 2011. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
