Belgium - LeDeux has finally scheduled Series 4 of Doctor Who. Episodes premiere
late Saturday afternoons around 4:55PM CET starting 29 August. Expect repeats
during the week, but we don't have days and times yet.

SPAIN - SciFi Channel Spain will finally premiere Series 3 of Doctor Who to that country's viewing public on Monday 7 September at 10:20PM. Episodes air 3 times a week. Sadly, The Runaway Bride will air in an edited 45 minute version.

The official cast list for the 2010 Doctor Who series:

The Doctor: Matt Smith
Amy Pond: Karen Gillan

For press releases on Doctor Who, keep an eye on the BBC Press Office
http://www.bbc.co.uk/pressoffice and C21 Media http://www.c21media.net .

Listings for North and South America are in This Week In Doctor Who Western
Hemisphere. Sarah Jane Adventures, K9 and Podcasts are in This Week In Doctor
Who Spinoffs. Torchwood info is in Torchwood This Week. Expect a shakeup in the
layout of the column next week when I have had time to make adjustments. Time to
move some things around to prepare for the future.
