Torchwood premieres in Australia this Monday. The SFSA http://www.sfsa.org.au notes that Network Ten (available to most Australians) and Southern Cross Ten (affiliate of Ten with some variations from another channel) will simulcast Torchwood Mondays at 9:40PM, reaching the vast majority of the population. It doesn't look like Torchwood is airing on any of the other affiliates that run Ten's programming - if it is, pass the word please.
TEN is airing Torchwood in a 70 minute timeslot. While this means
more commercials, it also means the episodes should not be shortened
for time! Torchwood episodes range from 46 minutes, 45 seconds to 52
minutes, 49 seconds.
While not Torchwood, UK readers will want to pay attention to Doctor
Who tonight, as John Barrowman (Captain Jack) is in the next 3 Doctor
Who episodes.
Doctor Who schedule information is in This Week In Doctor Who
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/thisweekindoctorwho .
Next week's edition will go out on Friday June 22nd. It will return
to Saturdays on June 30th.
