Torchwood Series 2 World Premiere - Wednesday 16 January 9PM GMT on
BBC Two and BBC HD!
It was expected, but now official about the day and time. At least
for the 16th, Torchwood Series 2 Premiere Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang will
air at the same time in all BBC Two regions (BBC Two Wales usually
aired Torchwood later during Series 1, with 2 Wales Digital airing
Torchwood later still - both regions are at the network time for
now). Or see the high definition version on BBC HD.
BBC Three - only one repeat spotted so far - Wednesdays at
11somethingPM GMT.
Pre-Watershed - Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang will air Wednesday 23 January
7PM GMT. Starting with episode 2 on 24 January, Pre-Watershed airings
will be Thursdays at 7PM GMT.
Torchwood DeClassified - premieres after the Pre-Watershed
broadcasts, so episode 1 is Wednesday 23 January at 7:50PM on BBC
Two, while episode 2 airs on Thursday 24 January at 7:50PM on BBC Two.
US - BBC America http://www.bbcamerica.com has the premiere
information for Torchwood Series 2 and Doctor Who Series 3 - see This

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.
