On the 23rd of November in 1963, a science fiction programme called Doctor Who premiered. If you are reading this column, you probably think that was a very good idea. BBC Radio 7 http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio7 celebrates the day with the last scheduled new episode of their 8th Doctor season - available to hear all over the world. I do not know if Doctor Who: Poshock will do a live show on the 23rd (they already had episode 134 celebrating the anniversary. If they do not, then CIA: Cultdom In Audio may do an anniversary show. |

Looking ahead at the schedules, UK Sarah Jane Adventures fans can look forward to a weekday 7:30AM run on CBBC starting 8 December. US Sarah Jane Adventures fans can see all of Series 1 on SciFi in the daytime rotation slot (Tuesday 16 December 9:30AM to 4PM). As December information comes in, it looks like an increasing number of broadcasters are seeing the value of The Christmas Invasion, The Runaway Bride, and Voyage Of The Damned as Christmas specials. Since they are Christmas specials, this is good news. And on Christmas Day, UK residents and anyone else who can pull in BBC One gets to enjoy The Next Doctor, the newest Christmas episode. |

Illusion TV On Demand http://www.illusiontv.com Doctor Who Classic Series. October Genesis of the Daleks pts 1+2 of 6 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. |
