THIS WEEK IN DOCTOR WHO
December 6, 2008 - Vol 11, No 48
The weekly guide to Doctor Who boadcasts worldwide.

Section B - PBS and Podcasts.
The podcasts are now at the end of this section, for the benefit of
people getting This Week in 2 parts who may have found Section A a
tad ... long. The PBS section is being overhauled as we approach the
start of Series 3 syndication and the end of Series 1's innuagural
syndicated run. Pardon the dust.
Doctor Who - Series 3 (The Runaway Bride and the 13 episode 2007
series with Freema Agyeman as Martha Jones) will be distributed to
Public TV stations by BBC Worldwide Americas, not American Public TV.
The episodes will start to roll out in January 2009. BBC Worldwide
Americas also distributes classic Doctor Who to the stations that air
it.
Series 1 is currently available to public TV stations in an American Public TV package until February 28, 2009. American Public TV is not re-issuing Series 1, so those episodes will be unavailable to public TV stations after the aforementioned date unless/until BBC Worldwide Americas decides to offer them. Series 2 is currently available to public TV stations in an American Public TV package until March 31, 2010. For the Series 1 and 2 packages, stations have bought the rights to cycle through the episodes 4 times. They are not required to do so. WMFE 24 Orlando, FL is not expected to use their 4th run of Series 1. Other stations may make the same choice for Series 1 as February 28, 2009 comes close. Unless a station admits what they are doing, I'm stuck keeping it here with the most hopeful scenario (the number of times they still *could* air the episodes).
Six stations have used all their rights to the Series 1 package - WLVT 39 Allentown, PA, WJCT 7 Jacksonville, FL, WILL 12 Urbana, IL, Iowa Public TV, KUED 7 Salt Lake City, UT, and KLRU 18 Austin, TX. Idaho Public TV is airing a 5th Cycle of Series 1. OETA Oklahoma has used half of their 4th and final cycle of Series 1. WMFE 24 Orlando, FL did not renew Doctor Who. Maryland Public TV is claiming that their rights have expired, though they can still air Series 1 two more times before February 28, and they are not ruling out buying future episodes.
4 Public TV stations currently have rights to air the classic Doctor Who run (1963-1989). Iowa Public TV is currently airing both New Who Series 2 and Colin Baker episodes. KBTC 28 Tacoma, WA is airing Tom Baker episodes while resting New Who Series 1. WHRO 15 Norfolk, VA is airing Tom Baker episodes but apparently does not have New Who Series rights. WCET 48 Cincinnati, OH is resting classic Who while repeating New Who Series 1 - Peter Davison would theoretically be next.
The public TV stations known to have bought The Runaway Bride and Series 3: WGVU/WGVK 35,52 Grand Rapids/Kalamazoo, MI (Now, there are 4 PBS stations where I could name the employee who is reading this column right now and knows perfectly well that his or her station has purchased Series 3. There's a 5th PBS station where I do not know the name of the employee in the same position. When the information comes in, you 5 stations and hopefully a lot more will be added.)

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.
Sunday 2PM EST (11AM PST, 7PM GMT) - Discussion of The Next Doctor's
time slot, followed by a gripping topic. You can tell I ran out of
time writing this and simply don't have time to check their link,
can't you? Sorry gang. And I won't be home tomorrow so I won't be
calling in either. Sorry again.
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 - The Stolen Earth. Happy happy joy joy. But for our
3 Canadians, there is a storm cloud on the horizon. The story
concludes in Journey's End ...
Sunday or Monday - #112 - Journey's End. This could be a long
episode, as they will be commentating the length of Journey's End.
And Chris does not like Journey's End, so expect them to stall a bit.
The early start time for The Next Doctor, Nicholas Courtney on Sarah
Jane Adventures, and the near certain butcher edit of Journey's End -
all of these could be discussed to keep from getting to the episode.
And no, guys, being at the end of Section B is not a Demotion.
Besides, all the podcasts moved here.
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 episodes:
Commentaries for both episodes of The Sarah Jane Adventures - The
Last Sontaran.
Also - A Look at The Writer's Tale.
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 episodes - 12 - The Romans. 12.5 - update on the new Whovian
Quest website and the future direction of the podcast.
Bigger On The Inside (no time - will find the web link for next week -
do some searching)
Dan Toland and his friend (will get the name for next week) decide to
do their own podcast exploring each Doctor Who story in broadcast
order. It is a very different style from Jonathan's. Again - can they
pull it off? Warning - explicit language (swearing). If your
headphones leak any sound at all - do not listen at work.
Current episode - 1 - An Unearthly Child.
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 - 17 - Review of Midnight, Turn Left, The Stolen
Earth, and Journey's End (free)
Next episode - content unknown
Cliff and Stephanie Ravenscraft review Doctor Who episodes when their
busy schedule of podcasts allows time. This time it is a group review
of the end of Series 4 and their thoughts on Doctor Who's upcoming
break/loss of David Tennant.
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.
