Seems like AngularJS folks are working on it in version 1.3.0. All you need to do is adding : 'UTC' after the format string. Something like:

{{someDate | date:'d MMMM yyyy' : 'UTC'}}

As you can see in the docs, you can also play with it here: Plunker example

BTW, I think there is a bug with the Z parameter, since it still show local timezone even with 'UTC'.
