BBC One - Doctor Who - The Next Doctor

UK - You thought new Doctor Who in the UK was over till Christmas,
right? Well, BBC7 http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbc7 and Big Finish
http://www.doctorwho.co.uk are out to prove you wrong. Paul McGann
returns as The 8th Doctor and Sheridan Smith returns as Lucy Miller
in eight 50 minute full cast radio episodes - Sundays at 6PM and
Midnight UK Time starting 19 October. Paul McGann played the Doctor
in the 1996 TV Movie and in many Big Finish direct to cd audio
stories since 2001. He is the official 8th Doctor, the link between
Sylvester McCoy (7th Doctor in Classic Who - late 1980s) and
Christopher Eccleston (9th Doctor/New Series 1/2005).

This is actually the second set of Paul McGann audios made for BBC7.
An earlier set of 8 Paul McGann/Sheridan Smith episodes ran in late
2006/early 2007. That time the episodes aired on the radio before
getting released on CD. For these new episodes the CD releases came
first, which is why the radio run was delayed a bit. No word on
whether the previous BBC7/Big Finish Doctor Who series is going to
repeat soon.

UK - Did you miss the Sarah Jane Adventures 2nd Series premiere this
past Monday? Hurry. The CBBC Channel repeats The Last Sontaran part 1
TONIGHT at 5PM BST. The Last Sontaran part 2 repeats on BBC One this
Monday at 4:35PM and on the CBBC Channel on the 11th at 5PM BST. The
episodes should also be available on iPlayer for UK residents at this
time.

ASIA - BBC Entertainment Asia http://asia.bbcentertainment.com begins
airing Doctor Who series 3 this Tuesday at 6:55PM Thai time, with
repeats.

INDIA - BBC Entertainment India http://india.bbcentertainment.com
begins airing Doctor Who series 3 this Wednesday at 10PM, with
repeats.

SCANDANAVIA - the BBC Press Office http://www.bbc.co.uk/pressoffice
announced Wednesday that Scandanavia will see the launch of a new set
of BBC channels in December. BBC Entertainment Scandanavia will
replace BBC Prime in the country and will likely air Doctor Who and
Torchwood. BBC HD will also launch in Scandanavia and could also air
Torchwood. The BBC will launch the new suite of channels and retire
BBC Prime in all of the Nordic countries - it is not clear if this
will happen simultaneously or if it will be just one Nordic country
at a time. Each country is supposed to get their own version of these
channels. BBC Prime continues for now in other countries, though the
eventual plan is to replace it altogether will lots of localized BBC
channels.

Torchwood schedule information is included in the Torchwood This Week
column http://groups.yahoo.com/group/torchwood .

For press releases on Doctor Who, keep an eye on the BBC Press Office

if you are in the Central or Mountain Time Zones, SPACE's broadcasts
of Torchwood are going to overlap with your local CBC's broadcast of
Who. Most satelite subscribers can get multiple feeds of the CBC and
presumably digital cable customers can too. If you want to see both
Doctor Who and Torchwood, use the various CBC feeds to your
advantage. The Torchwood finale is 24 October, marking the end of the
schedule conflict.

actually going on with Doctor Who?

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.

West, Dave AC, Colin, and other Doctor Who fans liked the live Doctor
Who: Podshocks so much that they wanted to keep talking afterwards.
The resulting show covers Doctor Who, anything else sci-fi related,
and can go wildly off in all directions. Chats open 15 minutes before
the scheduled start time.
September 28 episode - Talkshoe was offline, so they did a 45 minute
episode using Skype to discuss the new UK series Merlin (comes to NBC
in the US in February). This episode is on the podcast feed.
Sunday 2PM EDT (11AM PDT, 7PM BST) - new episode, if Talkshoe is
running.

Radio Free Skaro http://radiofreeskaro.wordpress.com
The 3 Canadians get together on Sundays for about an hour or two or
more to discuss the latest in Doctor Who, Torchwood, and Sarah Jane
in a fairly amusing manner. Temporarily doing commentary on Series 4
episodes.
Current episode - #102 - How Very Ood. The Three Canadians look at
Planet Of The Ood, months after it first aired.
Sunday or Monday - #103 - commentary on The Sontaran Stratagem,
Canadian style.

A Podcast Of Impossible Things
http://podcastofimpossiblethings.blogspot.com
Cardiff-based Doctor Who fans get together to discuss the latest
Doctor Who and do a full length commentary on new Doctor Who episodes.
Current episode - The Aztecs episode 3 of 4. The gang does a
commentary on the second episode of this early William Hartnell
Doctor Who story, discussing the episode and how TV has changed since
1964. Includes some comparison to Planet Of The Ood.

A Whovian's Quest http://www.whovianquest.com
Jonathan Rainer is podcasting his experiences as he watches Doctor
Who. In original broadcast order. From 1963. Without a gap. Can he
pull it off?
Current episode - 11 - The Rescue.

The Big Finish Podcast http://www.bigfinish.com/podcast
Big Finish podcasts at least once a month to discuss their Doctor Who
and other projects (Sapphire and Steel, Stargate (!), Dark Shadows,
Bernice Summerfield, etc).
Current episode - Episode 1 of a new series of UNIT audios, starring
Nicholas Courtney as Alaistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart (possibly
not as retired as assumed). The rest of the episodes have to be paid
for. Next date for regular podcasts unknown.

Cliff And Stephanie's Doctor Who Fan Podcast http://www.gspn.tv
Current episode - 13 - Review of Planet Of The Ood (free)
Next episode - 14 - Review of Daleks In Manhattan/Evolution Of The
Daleks (paid subscribers only)
Cliff and Stephanie Ravenscraft review Doctor Who episodes on a
weekly basis. Start of new installments as they review Series 4,
skipping Voyage Of The Damned for now and focusing on the
Doctor/Donna episodes.
GSPN.tv is a network of podcasts on TV shows, daily life, religion,
and other issues that interest the 3 Ravenscrafts. Doctor Who Fan
Podcast becomes one of the pay programs in the network starting with
episode 12. The existing paying audience ranked Doctor Who dead last
in their interests (annoying the hosts who want to do the show but
are living off the revenue from their podcasts). If you subscribe to
their podcasts in order to hear the new Doctor Who episodes, be sure
to alert them that you are doing this. Half the episodes expected to
be free, half paid.

Tachyon TV http://www.tachyon-tv.co.uk
Note to Tachyon guys - the brand new episode on iTunes turned out to
be 1.2, an episode made in Fall 2007. Surreal choice. Thought you'd
like to know - especially if you did not tell iTunes to post it.

MMM Commentaries http://www.mmmcommentaries.com
Roving Australian podcasting gang. Some episodes are a discussion of
the latest sci-fi news, including Doctor Who. Other episodes are
commentaries on Doctor Who episodes, Star Wars films, some Stargate
stuff, and others. Currently on a Blake's 7 kick, but recent

available.
