Digiguide also provided this same information two days earlier.

Doctor Who Magazine provided a synopsis of the episode:

A spaceship crashes in north London. Not that Donna Noble noticed; she had other things on her mind. Besides, there’s no such thing as aliens – right?! But then one turns up in her garden shed: the Meep. Another – the Doctor – barges into her kitchen. By the time a squadron of Wrarth Warriors shows up on her doorstep, the Noble family must face facts: Donna’s past is catching up with her. And her mind is about to be blown…

The behind-the-scenes show about The Star Beast, Doctor Who: Unleashed will follow on BBC Three at 7:30pm.
