This is something that continues to eat away at people who watch Doctor Who avidly. It's the ever changing schedule. When Doctor Who finally returned to television sets in 2005, it was broadcast in March. It stayed that way until Steven Moffat took over (taking away the final year of David Tennant's Doctorate reign as it was just a handful of specials, so that doesn't count). Moffat changed the broadcasting of the show when Series 6 aired, where it started with a two parter, and Series 7 was cut into two parts... As for Series 8, there were only 12 episodes and not the usual 13 in the previous six series. It's something that Saturday evening viewers await to see, it's part of Britain as a collective, something that sums the nation up. But when the broadcasting date is changed/altered, it does annoy and irritate us in equal measure as most television viewers are impatient to say the least. So simply, don't change it.
