TORCHWOOD THIS WEEK
March 8, 2008 - Vol 2, No 9
The weekly guide to Torchwood transmissions.

BBC Three (with a BBC HD simulcast) is getting the episodes first at
the moment, one week before the primary broadcast on BBC Two. This
may change for the final episodes. BBC Two will air episode 10 on
Wednesday 19 March, then air episode 11 on Friday 21 March (2 days
after episode 11 airs on BBC Three). Episode 12 will air on Friday 28
March on BBC Two - BBC Three airdate unknown.

Doctor Who schedule information is in This Week In Doctor Who
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/thisweekindoctorwho .

I am trying to find websites and station information for some of the
more elusive Torchwood sales. If you spot it airing or getting ready
to air in your country, and I've missed it, let me know so it gets
into the next edition and more fans get informed.

Corrections and updates are welcome at torchwood-
owner@yahoogroups.com , TWIDW on AIM, and thebfe on Yahoo Messenger.
