Section A - Everything But The PBS Stations
Upcoming premiere broadcasts:
Sunday 20 July:
Prime New Zealand 7:30PM - The Fires Of Pompeii
ABC1 Australia 7:30PM - Planet Of The Ood
ABC1 Australia 8:15PM - DWC - Oods And Ends (10 minutes)

Friday 25 July:
SciFi US 9PM and 11:01PM EDT - The Stolen Earth, pt 1 of 2
Friday 19 September:
CBC 9PM (9:30PM Newfoundland) - 4th Series Premiere!
USA - SciFi http://www.scifi.com has updated their August schedule and given The Stolen Earth / Journey's End a 90 minute timeslot on August 1, 2008. The episode will air at 8:30PM and 11PM Eastern. This should enable the episode to air full length with no edits (sorry, banners on the screen and crunched closing credits do not count as edits, no matter how much we dislike the practices). Well done to SciFi for getting the correct version of the episode. ABC Australia, Prime New Zealand, and CBC Canada - your turns to step up and get the full version of {s[JourneysEnd}}.
UK - Radio 3 will have live coverage of a Doctor Who themed Prom
(concert) on Sunday 27 July from 11AM to 1PM BST. The concert will be
recorded for future TV broadcast. Freema Agyeman hosts, with an
appearance by David Tennant.
UKTV Drama http://www.uktv.co.uk/drama continues airing one episode of Tom Baker a day most days in the 5AM hour this month. In August 1 to 6 episodes will air per day and the start time will vary to as early as 2:30AM. Looks like they are trying to race through the leftover airing rights they have. A repeat run of Series 1 and 2 (with some episode missing) begins on UKTV Gold http://www.uktv.co.uk/gold Monday 21 July at 7AM and 4PM. UKTV Drama and UKTV Gold are rebranding on 7 October. UKTV Gold becomes Gold and will focus on comedies. UKTV Drama becomes Alibi and focuses exclusively on crime dramas. UKTV Gold + 1's feed will become Watch, a channel for contemporary drama, including Torchwood. Neither Gold nor Watch will have a +1 timeshift channel.
SciFi Channel UK http://www.scifi.co.uk has a 3 day Bank Holiday weekend marathon of classic Doctor Who (23 to 25 August) coming up, which implies a new home for Classic Doctor Who in the UK as autumn approaches.
Torchwood schedule information is included in the Torchwood This Week
column http://groups.yahoo.com/group/torchwood .

Illusion TV is a service providing science fiction On Demand
programming to cable providers (no deals with satellite companies
yet). If your digital cable service has Illusion TV, all programming
is offered for free with commercials. See the website to determine if
your provider may offer this service. Based on the paucity of
information on the episodes airing, I guess they want you to get the
service before you know what you will be seeing.
