BBC Kids (actual website address still unclear; http://www.bbckids.com/ ??)
Channel Premieres Monday, Nov 5. So does Doctor Who!
Mon-Fri 7:30PM EST (4:30PM PST) - TBA
Mon-Fri 10:30PM EST (7:30PM PST) - TBA
Late Mon-Late Fri 2AM EST (11PM PST) - TBA
Late Mon-Late Fri 4AM EST (1AM PST) - TBA
Since there does not seem to be an active BBC Kids website up and running at press time, and since no TV listings for BBC Kids will say which episodes are airing, one can only speculate as to which episodes will air. Logical starting places for episode packages would be An Unearthly Child, Spearhead From Space, Robot, The Ribos Operation, or Castrovalva. One can speculate that either the same episode will air four times each weeknight or that two episodes will be presented, each airing twice. Due to the lack of useful information, the only way to extrapolate a schedule will be for someone in Canada who has BBC Kids to watch ALL 4 airings on Monday and e-mail me with the news on which episode or episodes aired.
ยป The following week confirmed the channel commenced with Robot.
