Broadcast notes:
Owing to a transmission error the first 15 minutes of the episode was instead replaced by "acorn.tv". Retro reported: "We have a new software program for creating the playlists and the team is still learning how to use it. There was an issue which was corrected about 15 minutes into the first episode of Doctor Who. This happened on most of our affiliates, the ones using the national schedule."
