Sunday 10 June - all of Series 2 in a marathon starting at Noon (first showing of Series 2 on UKTV Australia). In addition, UKTV is airing Doctor Who Confidential Cut Down. This is only the 2nd time that the Series 1 Confidential episodes have aired outside the UK (they currently run on US public TV stations) and the 1st time that Series 2 Confidential episodes have aired outside the UK. Great chance to catch up in the lead-up to Torchwood on network Ten and Series 3 of Doctor Who on the ABC. Exact start times for episodes unclear as of this writing.

SciFi US http://www.scifi.com has updated their plans for their Series 3 premiere. Friday July 6 will be the big Who day. An 8 hour marathon of Series 2 episodes from 8AM to 4PM EDT. The Runaway Bride (Christmas special) has its US premiere at 8PM and 11:30PM EDT in a 90 minute timeslot. Smith and Jones airs at 9:30PM and 1AM EDT. (Painkiller Jane airs at 10:30PM that night.) On July 13, Doctor Who settles into a regular time of 9PM and 11PM EDT. No additional encores at this time - tune in on Fridays if you don't want to have to wait a while for repeats.
