After a quiet period it's been quite a week in Whonews, and now, of immediate relevance:
The Eleventh Doctor edition in PDF.
Or free with a direct preorder of the box.
First impression: The character sheets are landscape format.
Second impression: The adventures we playtested are still there.
Third impression: Hey, SteveD got his name in the credits!
Fourth impression: I don't think the spread of example pregen PCs is as immediately useful. They all have sketched-in backgrounds this time rather than one or two-word archetype descriptors, which can help play and provide plot hooks, but a few of them seem weird for the sake of weird - particularly Indiana Jones. The student and journalist would have been handier to me at least.
Fifth impression: Smilers and Winders! Remember when they were being hyped up as a thing? Ah, those were the days...
Sixth impression: The Weeping Angels have a whole page of special rules. Their powers run on Story Points, which is an interesting spin on the mechanics.
