The Who-Files finally come to an end, at least for a while. Over the weekend, the 5th and 6thDoctors say their goodbyes to the Who universe. As the weekday episodes begin, the 7th Doctor takes Ace home to Perivale. Everyone she knows is disappearing. Shortly before each person disappears, a black cat hisses. Rumours that this is the same cat that stars on Sabrina, The Teenage Witch are unfounded. As the week ends, UKTV starts airing the 10 most popular Doctor Who stories, as determined by an online poll. First up, #10, (not announced at publication time).
