This Week In Doctor Who goes out a bit early this week due to other
commitments. Next edition is Saturday June 30.

The Doctor Who run in the UK is approaching its end, and excitement
runs high. Utopia was actually part 1 of 3, so if you don't want some
spoilers about the last 2 episodes of the series - try not to read
too much about Utopia. BBC One in the UK is running special trailers
for this week's episode that are cute and fun, and most potential UK
Doctor Who viewers will have either seen Utopia or someone they know
will have blabbed the ending to them by now.

BBC Radio Wales' last episode in the current run of Doctor Who Back
In Time is 60 minutes long instead of the regular 30 - 1:04PM
Saturday, 4:32PM Sunday as usual.

Be advised that Totally Doctor Who's 2nd Series Finale will air on
BBC TWO instead of BBC ONE. Friday 29 June at 5PM (the regular time
slot), but not the regular channel. The Saturday BBC Two repeat will
be at 10AM instead of 10:30AM due to a full 45 minute broadcast
of "The Infinite Quest", the animated Doctor Who story that has been
playing out on Totally Doctor Who for months. The end of the full
broadcast may have material not seen in the 12 serialized episodes -
not sure on that yet. The Weakest Link Doctor Who special from March
repeats on the 30th at 6:15PM on BBC One, leading into the 3rd Series
Finale at 7:05PM. Last of the Time Lords is listed in a 50 minute
timeslot instead of the regular 45 minute slot, so expect a longer
than normal episode.

To limit confusion:
Friday 29 June:
5PM BBC *TWO* Totally Doctor Who 2-12
6PM CBBC Totally Doctor Who 2-12
8PM BBC Three Utopia pt 1
8:45PM BBC Three Doctor Who Confidential 3-11
9PM BBC Three The Sound Of Drums pt 2
9:45PM BBC Three Doctor Who Confidential 3-12
Saturday 30 June:
10AM BBC Two Totally Doctor Who 2-12
10:30AM BBC Two - The Infinite Quest (45 minutes, full showing of
animated story)
6:15PM BBC One The Weakest Link Doctor Who Special
7:05PM BBC One Last Of The Time Lords pt 3 (50 minutes)
7:55PM BBC Three Doctor Who Confidential 3-13 (45 minutes)
Sunday 1 July:
7PM BBC Three Last Of The Time Lords pt 3 (55 minute slot, special
time)
7:55PM BBC Three Doctor Who Confidential 3-13

Canadian fans are now seeing Series 3 on the CBC
http://www.cbc.ca/television Mondays at 8PM. Be advised that the
national broadcast of Who will be pre-empted on Monday 2 July for a
Football match, and Gridlock will air on 9 July. Viewers in British
Columbia (or if you have a satellite package that includes a West
Coast CBC station) are tentatively set to get a repeat of The Runaway
Bride on 2 July at 8PM, as the match should be over by then in that
zone. This is subject to change. The Runaway Bride aired at Midnight
on the 18th nationally, 4 hours after Smith And Jones.

Spanish kids channel TVE Clan is airing Series 1 several times a day
at the moment. It is unclear which episodes are airing at which times.

TVR2 Romania is doing a repeat run of Series 1 - Sundays at 11PM.
