Doctor Who schedule information is in This Week In Doctor Who
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/thisweekindoctorwho .

We are still awaiting a date for the premiere of the BBC Radio 4
episode of Torchwood. It is assumed the episode will air later this
summer when the reactor that the story ties into is turned on.

Germany - RTL 2 has bought Doctor Who for their Wednesday night schedule. Expected to be 10PM or later. No premiere date yet.

South Korea - The Skylife satellite service began airing Torchwood on
7 July. We do not know what channel or what time the show is on.

Sweden - TV4 Plus began Torchwood Series 2 on Sunday 6 July. Episodes
are Sundays at 10PM CET.
