** BBC Kids (actual website address still unclear; http://www.bbckids.com/ ??) Channel Premieres Monday, Nov 5. So does Doctor Who! Mon-Fri 7:30PM EST (4:30PM PST) - TBA Mon-Fri 10:30PM EST (7:30PM PST) - TBA Late Mon-Late Fri 2AM EST (11PM PST) - TBA Late Mon-Late Fri 4AM EST (1AM PST) - TBA Since there does not seem to be an active BBC Kids website up and running at press time, and since no TV listings for BBC Kids will say which episodes are airing, one can only speculate as to which episodes will air. Logical starting places for episode packages would be An Unearthly Child, Spearhead From Space, Robot, The Ribos Operation, or Castrovalva. One can speculate that either the same episode will air four times each weeknight or that two episodes will be presented, each airing twice. Due to the lack of useful information, the only way to extrapolate a schedule will be for someone in Canada who has BBC Kids to watch ALL 4 airings on Monday and e-mail me with the news on which episode or episodes aired. ยป The following week confirmed the channel commenced with Robot. ** |

MPT Maryland 22,28,31,36,62,67 http://www.mpt.org/ Late Sat 12:15AM EST Terror of the Autons movie Almost certainly the color-restored version. BTW, MPT pulled a surprise on viewers last week. After airing all of Inferno in the regular time slot, they reran all of The Ambassadors of Death, which had aired incomplete two weeks ago. Alas, there was no advance notice of this, so unless you stayed up all night, you probably missed the special Ambassadors Of Death rerun. |
