Torchwood This Week
June 13, 2009 - Volume 3, Number 24
The weekly guide to Torchwood transmissions.

Torchwood: Children Of Earth. Here is what we know on scheduling.
1) BBC One (with a BBC HD simulcast) will insist on airing the episodes first.
Maybe by hours, maybe by days. Any network that schedules Children Of Earth -
you know that either BBC One will air ahead of that or they will force said
network to revise plans and delay the show.
2) BBC One has not announced when they will air the episodes. Bugging James
Moran on Twitter is not going to get you an airdate, because they have not told
him either.
3) BBC America is the only network to announce a firm schedule - 5 day strip
from Monday 20 July to Friday 24 July. So Torchwood's UK premiere will be 20
July or sooner (bearing in mind point #1 above). Torchwood is part of the launch
of BBC America HD.
4) UKTV Australia and SPACE in Canada have announced that Torchwood: Children Of
Earth is coming in July as well. No airdate announced for either one, and point
#1 still applies. BBC HD Australia has claimed that they will simulcast the
Torchwood episodes with UKTV Australia.
5) BBC Entertainment South Africa bought Torchwood: Children Of Earth as well.
As that network has yet to air Series 2 of Torchwood, it is expected that it
will be a while before they can get to the Children Of Earth episodes.
6) The 3 Radio Plays on BBC Radio 4 from Wednesday 1 July to Friday 3 July are
available to listen to around the world and are set prior to the Children Of
Earth episodes.
And there we have it.

Live Talkshoe broadcasts - http://www.talkshoe.com/tc/23358
call in number (724) 444-7444 call id 23358
1) Home to the longest continuously running weekly-ish international Doctor Who
chat show done in podcast format. Hosted by Louis Trapani, Ken Deep, and James
Naughton, with frequent contributions/co-hosting by Dave AC, Mike Doran, and a
cast of many. There is a feed for studio shows and a feed for live shows.
2) Also home to the Sonic Newsdriver, Louis Trapani's periodic rundown of new
Doctor Who news.
3) Also home to the Hitch-hiker's Guide To British Sci-Fi, a podcast covering a
mix of shows, including Doctor Who.
Current episode:
-Podshock Episode 152. The Gallifreyan Embassy turns 24. The forums at Outpost
Gallifrey are turning off. BBC America turns to HD. Doctor Who's future in
Canada turns to SPACE. The hosts turn to Mike Doran in preparation of the
Canadian Doctor Who Convention Who Party 14. James Naughton was not able to turn
up for this one (though he did appear in podcast land this week). How many more
turns are there? Turn in to find out.
-Coming soon - Podshock Episode 153. Recorded Thursday, while I was at work
rather than a phone. Why would that matter? Well, you never know.
Radio Free Skaro http://www.radiofreeskaro.com
The 3 Canadians (Warren, Steven, Chris) get together on the weekends for about
an hour or more to discuss the latest in Doctor Who, Torchwood, and Sarah Jane
in a fairly amusing manner. When one is away, the 4th Canadian (Katrina) will
play. They recently completed a series of bonus features on Wednesdays in
varying styles.
Current episode:
#144 - "Square Peggs" - Warren's job makes him miss another episode, with
Katrina stepping in. Much news and rambling occured. Then they started watching
The Long Game, the episode that many people in British Columbia had problems
seeing on first broadcast due to a local election blowing out those CBC stations
(the BC stations aired The Long Game 4 days later). Odds are the three hosts on
this episode were not in British Columbia in 2005, but the inconvenience people
like Warren's friends in BC might have experienced has been partially remembered
by SPACE's pickup of all 4 previous series of modern Who, in a press release
that was new-ish when this episode was recorded. SPACE is unlikely to have
regional breakouts for election coverage.
#Bonus - "Warren Frey interviews Ron Moore" - While Warren was off missing Radio
Free Skaro, he was doing some interviews. And if you have a video interview with
Ron Moore of modern Battlestar Galactica on your hands, you throw it onto your
podcast feed, even if Doctor Who is never mentioned. Warning - the video is just
under 8 minutes long, but the file size is very large.
Coming Soon:
#145 - "Kill Off Your Father's Day" - One week before Father's Day in the US,
Canada, UK, and various other countries - the gang of 3 to 4 Canadians look at
the Doctor Who episode - Father's Day. Warning to first time viewers of the
episode - the Doctor Who episode takes place in November, and has nothing to do
with the holiday.
And on Sunday July 26:
Commentary on "Planet Of The Dead", scheduled by coincidence just a few hours
after SPACE's premiere of the episode in Canada and just a few hours before BBC
America's premiere of the episode in the USA.
DWO Whocast http://www.thewhocast.com
Trevor from Australia and Marty from the UK talk Doctor Who with themselves,
others, and teddy bears dressed as doctors. Now with a rock version of the
opening theme, the Whocast continues to ask the questions that pop in to their
heads. Regular correspondent - James. Frequent guest - Michael of the Tin Dog
podcast.
Current episode:
#123 - News updates/feedback. After a few news headlines, the Whocast started
looking at their mail. But there was a distraction. The power of Karen Gillan's
red hair was calling out like a siren, luring conversation over. Not even to
Karen herself, but to her hair. If Karen's companion role is bald and she's
wearing a cap during her Doctor Who run, these two will be very annoyed.
Tin Dog Podcast http://www.tin-dog.co.uk
UK based podcast looking at the latest in Doctor Who, Torchwood, or Sarah Jane
Adventures. New episodes ever 2 weeks or so.
Current episodes:
#92 - Delta And The Bannermen. 1987 - The Tin Puppy is horrified by the story
Delta And The Bannermen. Then his Betamax* fails to record the story, allowing
Tin to forget the story for 22 years. 2009 - with the release of the DVD,
Michael returns to face a story that scared him (for the wrong reasons) the
first time. Does the memory cheat? If the tension is too great, the iTunes
descriptions gives away his reaction.
*Weirdly, my family's VHS machine ate the tape it tried to record Delta And The
Bannermen on, so I only saw 15 minutes on the first local broadcast. First time
the machine did this - not the last. 18 months later another station aired the
episode - the VHS did not record at all. On the third attempt the credits got
chopped off on both ends and the picture/sound were very poor, but I got to see
the story at last. Very frustrating when your recorder thinks it should have
editorial control over what you watch.

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.
Current episode - Wizard's List of the Top 25 Science Fiction Shows Ever. Part 3
- Shows 4 to 1.

Two Minute Time Lord http://twominutetimelord.com
A bite-sized commentary and revew show. Host Chip's interest was rekindled by
the 2005 revival. He believes in balancing old fandom and new viewers, respect
for the past and breaking the rules. He tries to keep his pontifications to 120
seconds, because we're ALL in a hurry these days.
Current Episodes:
#28 - Giving Kids A Voice. Doctor Who is a family show aimed at all ages. Yet so
much of fandom in general (and podcasts in particular) gets aimed straight at an
adult audience. Maybe the voices of children should be heard in the podcasting
halls.
#29 - Torchwood Series 4? Matt Smith's first enemy? Shock horror - Russell T
Davies has an idea for Torchwood if it is renewed for the 4th series! Shock
horror - Matt Smith's Doctor might encounter a monster that the Doctor has met
before! What do you do when the spoiler rumors are of things that are rather
obvious.
Staggering Stories http://www.staggeringstories.net
A wild, wandering podcast with Doctor Who and the other flavours of the moment
winding together roughly once every 2 weeks. The website's main focus is on
stories collected through the years. They like Daleks and Pertwee's head, don't
they? (Disclaimer - I wrote a Mr. Dalek story for them, and they published it.
I'm infiltrating all these podcasts and sites. Bwa-ha-ha.)
Current:
Episode 47 - "When Assassins Go Deadly" - Andy, Adam, Keith, Fake Keith, and
Jean look at the DVD release of the famous Tom Baker serial The Deadly Asassin.
Ashes To Ashes is getting to them. A choose your own adventure game fails to get
out of hand, much to everyone's surprise. And other stuff that looks odd on the
page but has caused several listeners to crash their cars over the years.
Coming soon - Episode 48. "When An Old Member Of The Team Starts Another Show"
The Flashing Blade Podcast http://www.flashingblade.org.uk
Tony Gallichan returns to podcast land with new podcaster Jo! to look at Doctor
Who and matters of interest. Tony grew up with UK fandom and knows all the
cliches. Jo! - didn't. No, Jo! is not Freema Agyeman in disguise pulling an
elaborate hoax. She does seem insistant on having an ! at the end of her name,
though. Flashing Blade wants to be known as the podcast that would like a nice
cup of tea.
Current episode - 1 The Pilot Podcast. Recorded in May, before Tony and Jo! had
a website ready or a launch date. Tony and Jo! recount their visit to the
Radiophonic Workshop concert, review The Five Doctors, compare their fan
histories, and teach the importance of taking care of your tea.
The Minute Doctor Who Podcast
http://web.mac.com/backintheussr6/The_Minute_Doctor_Who_Podcast/Podcast/Podcast.\
html
Video (sometimes just audio) podcast looking at Doctor Who projects. Episodes
are usually under 5 minutes long.
Current episodes - 15. Audio installment where the 1960s novelization Doctor Who
and the Crusaders suggests that the Doctor's grand-daughter Susan might have a
tie-in with modern British politics. Expose to follow.
16. Video installment. Luke exposits that Planet Of The Spiders was not the last
Jon Pertwee Doctor Who story. Nor was The Five Doctors or Dimensions In Time.
So, if Pertwee was not in Pertwee's last story, which story was it. Luke solves
the confusion in your minds.
Doctor Who Review Today http://www.talkshoe.com/tc/22756
Live editions Late Fridays 1AM EDT/10PM PDT/6AM BST every couple of weeks
Robert Carrie King reviews Doctor Who topics (DVDs and news, mostly) on this
Talkshoe program. Frequent cast member on CIA: Cultdom In Audio.
Most recent episode - June 12/13. Episode 36. The Missing episodes of Doctor Who
and, from new Who, The Impossible Planet.
The Tennantcast http://tennantcast.com
Kelsey, Kari, and friends get together to dish on the latest David Tennant news.
And at least for 2009, that still includes Doctor Who. They answer Chip's
thoughts about younger podcasting - these are the youngest Who-related
podcasters I know of. Their current plan is to do an episode each week, as they
are enthused by their topic and believe that practice makes better podcasts.
4 - After the Tennant round up, Alex Day is brought in to discuss his Trock
Band, which has done a collection of Doctor Who songs as part of their material.
What is a Trock Band? Ah, they knew they had a hook somewhere. Also, thoughts on
animated Who and what would make conventions more appealing to the
tween/teen/twentysomething fans.
The Wailing Fangirl http://www.talkshoe.com/tc/22228
Samantha (Romana 2) explores Doctor Who and fandom in Australia, sometimes with
the aid of the ladies of the Gallifreyan Time Love Brigade. Frequent cast member
on CIA: Cultdom In Audio.
Current episode - 8. A look at the First Doctor's Era.
Coming soon - they were planning to gush poetically when Planet Of The Dead
arrived. Planet has aired in Australia, so you never know when the Gallifreyan
Time Love Brigade will strike.
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 episode:
Planet Of The Dead - the commentary.
Bigger On The Inside http://www.earth-2.net
Mike and Dan 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? Part of the Earth-2 family of podcasts. Warning - explicit language
(swearing). If your headphones leak any sound at all - do not listen at work.
Current episode - 14 - The Massacre and The Arc. A gripping, high quality
historical is gatecrashed by Dodo. Earth's destruction is witnessed in Doctor
Who for the first time. Steven makes ethical choices and the production team
tries to modernize the show with a hip kid. These issues and more to be
discussed in this episode.
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 episode - 13 - The Web Planet. Includes an update on the delays in the
interactive website Jonathan is planning.
Hoo On Who http://hooonwho.com
Fan reviews of recent Doctor Who DVDs by David Hooie, frequently with a guest
co-host.
Current episode - #10. Pyramids Of Mars, reviewed with guest host James Naughton
of Doctor Who: Podshock. Now all 3 official Podshock hosts have appeared.
Tim's Take On ...
Tim Drury's podcast on various issues. Still checking it out at press time.
Available on iTunes.
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 - May magazine episode. Nicholas Briggs updates us with the
newest information from Big Finish about their present and future.
Tachyon TV http://www.tachyon-tv.co.uk
Irregular and irreverant podcast looking at the world of Doctor Who with a
funhouse mirror and coming out the other side holding a plush toy that wasn't
really the one you wanted but you'll keep it anyway because you can give it to
your girlfriend to impress her. It's that kind of show.
Current segment - a short appeal by "Rula Lenska".
MMM Commentaries/Fantragic http://www.mmmcommentaries.com
Roving Australian podcasting gang. Commentaries on Doctor Who episodes, Star
Wars films, some Stargate stuff, and others. The Frantragic episodes look at
Doctor Who and other sci-fi news. Fantragic episodes are on a different iTunes
feed from MMM Commentary episodes.
Current episode - commentary on the 2008 movie of Iron Man.
Current Doctor Who episode - The Curse Of Fenric - DVD Extended Version.
MMM noticed that no commentary was done for the recut movie version of The Curse
Of Fenric on its DVD set either. So MMM does their own, along the line of their
recent commentary for Battlefield's DVD Extended Version.

This Week In Doctor Who Western Hemisphere
June 13, 2009 - Vol 1, No 24
The Guide to North and South American Doctor Who TV Listings
by Benjamin F. Elliott
CANADA/USA - SPACE's next Doctor Who broadcast is Planet Of The Dead on Saturday
25 July (no time slot announced yet). BBC America's premiere of new to US Who is
The Next Doctor on Saturday 27 June (9PM, Midnight, 3AM Eastern - 75 minute time
slot).
USA - KBTC/KCKA http://www.kbtc.org is having a Doctor Who pledge night tonight
(13 June). The Green Death will air in its entirety. Since WHRO's schedule shows
the British lineup being dropped at the end of the month, KBTC is poised to be
the only station on EARTH airing classic Doctor Who come July. A scary thought,
and other stations may feel free to prove me wrong by putting Classic Who on the
air.
USA - KTEH http://www.kteh.org is taking votes now on their Doctor Who Youtube
contest. See KTEH's Doctor Who blog (link at KTEH's schedule entry) for contest
details. The winner of the six contenders gets to host a Doctor Who marathon.
Doctor Who returns on Sunday 28 June at 11PM (new day - the Friday slot goes to
a different show) with Doomsday.
USA - Doctor Who - Series 3 (The Runaway Bride and the 13 episode 2007 series
with Freema Agyeman as Martha Jones) are now distributed to Public TV stations
by BBC Worldwide Americas, not American Public TV. Series 4 also seems to be
available to buy - start date for Series 4 on Public TV stations is unknown. BBC
Worldwide Americas also distributes classic Doctor Who to stations.
The public TV stations known to have bought The Runaway Bride and Series 3:
WXXI 21 Rochester, NY
WTTW 11 Chicago, IL (expected July/August 2009)
WGVU/WGVK 35,52 Grand Rapids/Kalamazoo, MI
WILL 12 Urbana, IL
WTVP 47 Peoria, IL (currently in first run)
Iowa Public TV
Idaho Public TV
Wisconsin Public TV
Milwaukee Public TV (currently in first run)
KUED 7 Salt Lake City, UT (currently in first run)
OETA Oklahoma (currently in first run)
KLRU 18 Austin, TX (currently in first run)
Alaska Public TV (currently in first run)
WSKG/WSKA 46,30 Binghamton/Elmira, NY (currently in first run)
Now, I am confident that there are more stations with rights to Series 3 than
that. But these are the stations who have contacted me. Somehow I doubt that BBC
Worldwide Americas is going to send out a note with the stations who bought in
like American Public TV did, leaving us in the dark till a station comes forward
or it appears in their schedules.
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. American Public TV is no longer offering Series 1 - I do not know if
BBC Worldwide Americas will offer those stations to public TV stations now or
not.
2 Public TV stations currently have rights to air the classic Doctor Who run
(1963-1989), but not New Who. KBTC 28 Tacoma, WA is airing Peter Davison
episodes. WHRO 15 Norfolk, VA is airing Tom Baker episodes. WHRO seems to be
ditching their Saturday evening British TV lineup after June 27, which would
leave Doctor Who off the air.
In the USA, all the full power TV stations have turned OFF their analog
transmitters and gone strictly to digital broadcasting. If you have over the air
reception, you have hopefully upgraded to digital television by now. You will
want to rescan your television now to get stations that have moved on the dial
and stuff that you might now pull in thanks to the reduction in clutter from the
analog shut down. There may be more tweaks later as some stations need to
increase power. Since all the stations in the listings are digital (DT) now, I
am dropping the -dt label as an identifier.
And now, the listings:

For some of you reading This Week In Doctor Who, change is coming. Outpost
Gallifrey is completely retiring its News Page and Doctor Who Forum. This column
has been on the news page at http://www.gallifreyone.com/thisweek.php for some
time. If you read the column there, or on Outpost Gallifrey's RSS feed, then
your final edition on these sources comes out Saturday July 25 (Outpost
Gallifrey closes the news and forums on July 31st, with the site focusing
exclusively on the Gallifrey conventions in LA each February).
Alternate sources for This Week In Doctor Who:
1) Subscribe to the Yahoo Group for This Week In Doctor Who (as noted at the top
of the column).
2) Read the Yahoo Group on the web without subscribing.
3) Set up the RSS feed (as noted at the top of the column) so you can read new
editions.
4) Go to one of these newsgroups - rec.arts.drwho and rec.arts.drwho.moderated .
It will appear around the same time as the Yahoo Group posting.
5) http://www.gallifreyanembassy.org/vortex?q=blog - This Week In Doctor Who has
a new agreement with the Gallifreyan Embassy site supplying the column as one of
their blogs. I expect there will be some tweaking in future weeks, and the link
may change.
6) Other web mirrors may go up in the near future. The final number of mirrors
is yet to be determined.
This Week In Doctor Who has been proud to be associated with Outpost Gallifrey
in one form or another since July 1998 when the column began. The column will
stay on the OG News Page till the end in late July.
For press releases on Doctor Who, keep an eye on the BBC Press Office

BBC America announced plans for BBC America HD, their new high definition feed
for the station. BBC America HD and the third series of Torchwood both launch on
Monday July 20. It will be a big sci-fi week for BBC America. As for Torchwood,
the special "Inside The Hub" airs Monday at 8PM, 11PM, and 1AM Eastern. New
episodes premiere at 9PM, Midnight, and 2AM Eastern Monday to Friday that week.
The first 4 episodes repeat in the 8PM, 11PM, and 1AM slots just before the new
episodes.

SPACE Channel confirmed their recent Doctor Who and Torchwood acquisitions this
week. Torchwood Series 3 (Children Of Earth) premieres in July (the release does
not say if it will strip across a week or air weekly). It also confirms that
SPACE currently has rights to Series 1 and 2 of Torchwood.
BBC Radio 4 http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4 has scheduled the 3 Torchwood plays. The
plays will air in the Afternoon Play slot from Wednesday 1 July to Friday 3 July
on Radio 4 (2:15PM UK Time, 3:15PM Central Europe Time on Long Wave). They are
45 minutes each. They are set between Lost Souls (the Radio 4 play last

This section is always open to discovering new Doctor Who/Sarah
Jane/K9/Torchwood material of note. If you think your webcast/podcast (or
somebody else's) belongs in this section, e-mail me.
Doctor Who: Podshock http://www.gallifreyanembassy.org/vortex
Live Talkshoe broadcasts - http://www.talkshoe.com/tc/23358
call in number (724) 444-7444 call id 23358
1) Home to the longest continuously running weekly-ish international Doctor Who
chat show done in podcast format. Hosted by Louis Trapani, Ken Deep, and James
Naughton, with frequent contributions/co-hosting by Dave AC, Mike Doran, and a
cast of many. There is a feed for studio shows and a feed for live shows.
2) Also home to the Sonic Newsdriver, Louis Trapani's periodic rundown of new
Doctor Who news.
3) Also home to the Hitch-hiker's Guide To British Sci-Fi, a podcast covering a
mix of shows, including Doctor Who.
Current episode:
-Podshock Episode 151. The full team are back. Lots of feedback from e-mail,
phone, and Skype. The latest breaking news (including the companion announcement
- clearly done 24 hours after the rest of the show). Did I mention lots of
feedback? Tune in for a very animated Ken Deep.
-Coming soon - Podshock Episode 152. Recorded after the BBC America, SPACE, and
Outpost Gallifrey News, so I think I can guess some of the main topics. Probably
before the dates for the Torchwood radio plays came out. Depending on when they
recorded, my column's addition to the revamped Podshock site might or might not
have been news.
Radio Free Skaro http://www.radiofreeskaro.com
The 3 Canadians (Warren, Steven, Chris) get together on the weekends for about
an hour or more to discuss the latest in Doctor Who, Torchwood, and Sarah Jane
in a fairly amusing manner. When one is away, the 4th Canadian (Katrina) will
play. They recently completed a series of bonus features on Wednesdays in
varying styles.
Current episode:
#143 - "Never Trust A Man With A Soul Patch". The team get to Dalek, an episode
they all like, with an author they've even spoken to before. By the way, the
solution to the "2012 and nobody knows what a ----- is" conundrum is to treat it
like UNIT dating. The stories are right, but the dates are either off by mistake
or have been changed by the government to keep secrets from the people. Tell Rob
that - I'm sure he'll be glad to know his episode is canonical again. Guess the
guys missed the news on Dalek's premiere day that BBC One, Two, and Four were
streaming live over the internet worldwide the day Dalek premiered (30 April
2005), unencrypted. It's a memory that would have stuck. Between news and the
commentary, the episode passed 90 minutes.
Coming Soon:
#144 - "The Long Faces" - Has anyone ever noticed that Christopher Eccleston,
Billie Piper, the woman who played Cathica, and the guy who played Adam - all
their faces look abnormally long in The Long Game? Like the print stretched. But
Simon Pegg (The Editor) looks perfectly normal, even standing around the
stretched gang. It's weird.
And on Sunday July 26:
Commentary on "Planet Of The Dead", scheduled by coincidence just a few hours
after SPACE's premiere of the episode in Canada and just a few hours before BBC
America's premiere of the episode in the USA.
DWO Whocast http://www.thewhocast.com
Trevor from Australia and Marty from the UK talk Doctor Who with themselves,
others, and teddy bears dressed as doctors. Now with a rock version of the
opening theme, the Whocast continues to ask the questions that pop in to their
heads. Regular correspondent - James. Frequent guest - Michael of the Tin Dog
podcast.
Current episode:
#122 - Chip of the Two Minute Time Lord joins Trevor and Marty for the latest
(as of Sunday) news about Doctor Who coming to BBC America. Had everybody's call
to get Doctor Who on the air at last made a difference? This episode was
recorded before BBC America announced the start date for BBC America HD and the
sci-fi week with Torchwood Series 3 and Planet Of The Dead. Before BBC America
gave The Next Doctor an extended time slot that might mean the full episode
airs. Before SPACE in Canada issued its press release clarifying that it bought
all of Doctor Who from 2005 onwards and when the episodes would come to the
station. It is a very good episode, and it does give the feeling you get when
you find a flag or a map for the United States with 49 states on it. A time
capsule episode.
Prediction - Episode #123 might mention some redecorating at Doctor Who Online.
Tin Dog Podcast http://www.tin-dog.co.uk
UK based podcast looking at the latest in Doctor Who, Torchwood, or Sarah Jane
Adventures. New episodes ever 2 weeks or so.
Current episodes:
-91 - The Wheels On The Bus. Tin Dog reviews Planet Of The Dead. Michael reads
the Whostrology of Chris from Radio Free Skaro. Michael seems to be trying out
some new technology - lots of clips inserted. Almost Podshock levels of editing
stuff in, if Podshock was 19 minutes long.
CIA - Cultdom In Audio http://ciashock.podomatic.com
Live Talkshoe broadcasts http://www.talkshoe.com/tc/30659
call in number (724) 444-7444 call id 30659
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.
Current episode - Wizard's List of the Top 25 Science Fiction Shows Ever. Part 2
- Shows 10 to 5. Between news and talkativeness, the episode ran long and they
did not quite reach the end.
Upcoming episodes:
Sunday 2PM EDT/11AM PDT/7PM BST - Wizard's List of the Top 25 Science Fiction
Shows Ever. Part 3 - Shows 4 to 1. The new developments with BBC America,
Outpost Gallifrey, SPACE, and the Gallifreyan Embassy might take some time from
this episode.
Two Minute Time Lord http://twominutetimelord.com
A bite-sized commentary and revew show. Host Chip's interest was rekindled by
the 2005 revival. He believes in balancing old fandom and new viewers, respect
for the past and breaking the rules. He tries to keep his pontifications to 120
seconds, because we're ALL in a hurry these days.
Current Episodes:
#25 - Meet The Team Behind the "Ten Doctors" Webcomic (does what it says on the
tin) (should really be called Three Minute Time Lord on this episode)
#26 - Special 23 minute version of Two Minute Time Lord, with the uncut version
of the interview with the husband and wife team behind the "Ten Doctors"
webcomic, the 247 page extravaganza. Now finished, but Doctor Who may continue.
#27 - Outpost Gallifrey's Final Departure. Chip's podcast is first on the scene
bidding a fond farewell to Outpost Gallifrey, soon to focus exclusively on the
Gallifrey convention in LA.
Whocast Episode #122. Chip puts his recent apperance on the Whocast on his feed.
Warning - this is the regular Whocast length (52 minutes this time), far longer
than the normal Two Minute Time Lord.
Staggering Stories http://www.staggeringstories.net
A wild, wandering podcast with Doctor Who, Torchwood, Primeval, and other shows
winding together roughly once every 2 weeks. Mainly Doctor Who. And the
website's main focus is on stories collected through the years. They like Daleks
and Pertwee's head, don't they? (Disclaimer - I wrote a Mr. Dalek story for
them, and they published it. I'm infiltrating all these podcasts and sites.
Bwa-ha-ha.)
Current:
Episode 46 - "The Throwback" - Andy, Adam, Keith, Fake Keith, and guest host
Jean obsess on the new Trek film, Doctor Who DVD release Image Of The Fendahl,
surprising cancellations and renewals of US sci-fi shows, and a lot of feedback.
Has the Head of Pertwee started to attack peoples' homes?
Coming soon - Episode 47.
The Minute Doctor Who Podcast
http://web.mac.com/backintheussr6/The_Minute_Doctor_Who_Podcast/Podcast/Podcast.\
html
Video (sometimes just audio) podcast looking at Doctor Who projects. Episodes
are usually under 5 minutes long.
Current episode - 14a, 14b, and 14c - "Feedback" A multi-part video episode
where Luke responds to various types of communication he has received.
Doctor Who Review Today http://www.talkshoe.com/tc/22756
Live editions Late Fridays 1AM EDT/10PM PDT/6AM BST every couple of weeks
Robert Carrie King reviews Doctor Who topics (DVDs and news, mostly) on this
Talkshoe program. Frequent cast member on CIA: Cultdom In Audio.
Most recent episode - June 5/6. Episode 35. The Aztecs' DVD release is
discussed. Also - Father's Day (from new Series 1). 2 hours, 20 minutes long.
The Wailing Fangirl http://www.talkshoe.com/tc/22228
Samantha (Romana 2) explores Doctor Who and fandom in Australia, sometimes with
the aid of the ladies of the Gallifreyan Time Love Brigade. Frequent cast member
on CIA: Cultdom In Audio.
Current episode - 8. A look at the First Doctor's Era.
Coming soon - they were planning to gush poetically when Planet Of The Dead
arrives. Waiting for that episode to arrive. Maybe Sunday's airing of Planet on
ABC1 Australia will spur things.
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 episode:
Planet Of The Dead - the commentary.
Bigger On The Inside http://www.earth-2.net
Mike and Dan 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? Part of the Earth-2 family of podcasts. Warning - explicit language
(swearing). If your headphones leak any sound at all - do not listen at work.
Current episode - 14 - The Massacre and The Arc. A gripping, high quality
historical is gatecrashed by Dodo. Earth's destruction is witnessed in Doctor
Who for the first time. Steven makes ethical choices and the production team
tries to modernize the show with a hip kid. These issues and more to be
discussed in this episode.
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 episode - 13 - The Web Planet. Includes an update on the delays in the
interactive website Jonathan is planning.
Hoo On Who http://hooonwho.com
Fan reviews of recent Doctor Who DVDs by David Hooie, frequently with a guest
co-host.
Current episode - #9. Inferno. An epic 3rd Doctor story is reviewed, with guest
Ken Deep of Doctor Who: Podshock.
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 - May magazine episode. Nicholas Briggs updates us with the
newest information from Big Finish about their present and future.
Tachyon TV http://www.tachyon-tv.co.uk
Irregular and irreverant podcast looking at the world of Doctor Who with a
funhouse mirror and coming out the other side holding a plush toy that wasn't
really the one you wanted but you'll keep it anyway because you can give it to
your girlfriend to impress her. It's that kind of show.
Current segment - a short appeal by "Rula Lenska".
MMM Commentaries http://www.mmmcommentaries.com
Roving Australian podcasting gang. Commentaries on Doctor Who episodes, Star
Wars films, some Stargate stuff, and others.
Current episode - commentary on the 2008 movie of Iron Man.
Current Doctor Who episode - The Curse Of Fenric - DVD Extended Version.
MMM noticed that no commentary was done for the recut movie version of The Curse
Of Fenric on its DVD set either. So MMM does their own, along the line of their
recent commentary for Battlefield's DVD Extended Version.
The Two Doctors http://www.blogtalkradio.com/thetwodoctors
call in number (718) 664-9807
Jim Iaccino and Kenn Gold look at the latest SciFi broadcasts in the US, with
emphasis on fitting in Doctor Who, Dollhouse, Smallville, Supernatural, Fringe,
Torchwood, and the other big scifi shows of the moment. Everything is based on
US premiere dates rather than UK. Approximately 90 minutes per episode. Show
airs live with a text chat and can be downloaded later.
Next episode - Late Sunday Midnight EDT/9PM PDT/Monday 5AM BST - Doctor Who
hopped networks, and virtually all the US dramas are in repeats (apart from the
ones killed/in burnoff mode). Suspect Doctor Who and other BBC America stuff may
get more attention than normal this week, especially with BBC America going HD.
TV Talk Radio http://blogtalkradio.com/shaunomacradio
Weeknights 6 to 8PM EDT (3 to 5PM PDT) [Friday 7PM EDT/4PM PDT]
Shaun O'Mac Daily (of the Jericho "nuts" campaign) hosts a daily 2 hour show
covering all things TV. Doctor Who is sometimes discussed in the 2nd hour of the
Friday show with Two Doctors co-host Kenn Gold. Listen and chat live through the
website with archives appearing right after the show finishes.

This Week In Doctor Who Western Hemisphere
June 6, 2009 - Vol 1, No 23
The Guide to North and South American Doctor Who TV Listings
by Benjamin F. Elliott
http://www.spacecast.com/Blogs/Post.aspx?PostID=604
CANADA - SPACE http://www.spacecast.com has issued a press release on their blog
further clarifying their plans for Doctor Who's future.
1) Planet Of The Dead airs on Saturday 25 July.
2) As previously noted, SPACE has the specials. SPACE gets Series 5 in 2010.
3) In March 2010, SPACE also gets Series 1 to 4, The Christmas Invasion, and The
Runaway Bride, which previously aired on CBC. These episodes are currently
rerunning on CBC Bold.
4) In April 2010, SPACE gets Voyage Of The Damned, the 2007 Christmas special
that as of this moment has not aired in Canada in English.
5) They also mentioned that Torchwood Series 3 will premiere in Canada in July
and confirmed that they have repeats to Torchwood Series 1 and 2.

USA - BBC America http://www.bbcamerica.com has issued a press release
discussing the launch of BBC America HD and a press release discussing the
airing of specials The Next Doctor and Planet Of The Dead. They also have an
updated schedule up for Saturday June 27. We can glean some information from
these announcements.
1) The Next Doctor - USA premiere Saturday 27 June at 9PM, Midnight, and 3AM
Eastern/6PM, 9PM, and Midnight Pacific. The episode is airing in a 75 minute
time slot which will hopefully mean it airs complete.
2) BBC America HD launches Monday 20 July (also the premiere date for new
Torchwood, see Torchwood This Week).
3) Planet Of The Dead - USA premiere Sunday 26 July at 8PM, 11PM, and 2AM
Eastern/5PM, 8PM, and 11PM Pacific. No clue on length of time slot yet. First
Doctor Who episode shot in HD, and it will air in HD. It will also get a DVD and
Blu-Ray release on Tuesday 28 July - no clue on status of DVD for Next Doctor.
4) The Waters Of Mars and the final 2 specials - airing later in 2009 and early
2010.
Congratulations continue for BBC America. Thank you for planning an extended
time slot for The Next Doctor. Remember, Planet Of The Dead, the new Torchwood
episodes, and the sci-fi drama Being Human that you are premiering on 25 July
will also need extended slots to avoid being butchered. Do not fall into your
existing trap of airing a 60 minute show in a 60 minute slot with 14 minutes of
commercials by hacking out 14 minutes from the show. I forgot to mention this
last week, but a reader noted that you have a history of airing the BBC's 30
minute comedies uncut for time in 40 minute time slots. That was easier because
you built a block of 3 shows, but it indicates clearly that you could air 50
minute, 55 minute, 60 minute dramas with extended slots - your audience will
follow you if your quality is excellent. Fixed time slots that get shows cut -
bad.
It is only fair to note that BBC America did *not* publicly commit to Series 5
in 2010. I am going to assume that they would want the first run of Series 5,
but until they choose to say something then we only have a committment for the
end of David Tennant's run.
West Virginia Public Broadcasting http://www.wvpbs.org is taking Doctor Who on a
break again after the repeat of Doomsday on Thursday 12 June. Of course, with
the sheer number of pre-emptions, some people might have thought Doctor Who
started its vacation months ago.
USA - KTEH http://www.kteh.org is taking votes now on their Doctor Who Youtube
contest. See KTEH's Doctor Who blog (link at KTEH's schedule entry) for contest
details. The winner of the six contenders gets to host a Doctor Who marathon.
Meanwhile, Doctor Who will take most of June off after this Friday's showing of
Army Of Ghosts. Doctor Who returns on Sunday 28 June at 11PM (new day - the
Friday slot goes to a different show) with Doomsday.
USA - Doctor Who - Series 3 (The Runaway Bride and the 13 episode 2007 series
with Freema Agyeman as Martha Jones) are now distributed to Public TV stations
by BBC Worldwide Americas, not American Public TV. Series 4 also seems to be
available to buy - start date for Series 4 on Public TV stations is unknown. BBC
Worldwide Americas also distributes classic Doctor Who to stations.
The public TV stations known to have bought The Runaway Bride and Series 3:
WXXI 21 Rochester, NY
WTTW 11 Chicago, IL (expected July/August 2009)
WGVU/WGVK 35,52 Grand Rapids/Kalamazoo, MI
WILL 12 Urbana, IL
WTVP 47 Peoria, IL (currently in first run)
Iowa Public TV
Idaho Public TV
Wisconsin Public TV (starts 6 June at 8:40PM)
Milwaukee Public TV (currently in first run)
KUED 7 Salt Lake City, UT (currently in first run)
OETA Oklahoma (currently in first run)
KLRU 18 Austin, TX (currently in first run)
Alaska Public TV (currently in first run)
WSKG/WSKA 46,30 Binghamton/Elmira, NY (currently in first run)
Now, I am confident that there are more stations with rights to Series 3 than
that. But these are the stations who have contacted me. Somehow I doubt that BBC
Worldwide Americas is going to send out a note with the stations who bought in
like American Public TV did, leaving us in the dark till a station comes forward
or it appears in their schedules.
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. American Public TV is no longer offering Series 1 - I do not know if
BBC Worldwide Americas will offer those stations to public TV stations now or
not.
2 Public TV stations currently have rights to air the classic Doctor Who run
(1963-1989), but not New Who. KBTC 28 Tacoma, WA is airing Peter Davison
episodes. WHRO 15 Norfolk, VA is airing Tom Baker episodes. WHRO seems to be
ditching their Saturday evening British TV lineup after June 27, which would
leave Doctor Who off the air.
In the USA, all the full power TV stations are currently due to turn off their
analog transmitters by 11:59PM on June 12, 2009 and go strictly to digital
broadcasting. This is the most recent final immovable date to be passed by
Congress and signed by the President. That is between now and next week's
column. If you have over the air reception, you have hopefully upgraded to
digital television by now. You will want to rescan your television on the
morning of June 13 to get stations that have moved on the dial and stuff that
you might now pull in thanks to the reduction in clutter from the analog shut
down. There may be more tweaks later as some stations need to increase power,
andnSince all the stations will be digital (DT) by next week's edition, I will
drop the -dt stuff for simplicity.

I have tried to get the correct digital switch day for each of these stations.
The dates have shifted for some stations, and I have not been able to recheck
them all. If you are watching these stations over the air instead of via cable
or satellite provided locals, your best bet is to make sure you have a digital
tuner NOW (built into your TV, VCR, DVR, DVDR, etc or as a set-top box). All
full power stations will be digital only on the morning of June 13.

As you see from the upcoming premieres, there is news on Doctor Who and
Torchwood, which go in the Western Hemisphere and Torchwood sections of TWIDW.
For some of you reading This Week In Doctor Who, change is coming. Outpost
Gallifrey is completely retiring its News Page and Doctor Who Forum. This column
has been on the news page at http://www.gallifreyone.com/thisweek.php for some
time. If you read the column there, or on Outpost Gallifrey's RSS feed, then
your final edition on these sources comes out Saturday July 25 (Outpost
Gallifrey closes the news and forums on July 31st, with the site focusing
exclusively on the Gallifrey conventions in LA each February).
Alternate sources for This Week In Doctor Who:
1) Subscribe to the Yahoo Group for This Week In Doctor Who (as noted at the top
of the column).
2) Read the Yahoo Group on the web without subscribing.
3) Set up the RSS feed (as noted at the top of the column) so you can read new
editions.
4) Go to one of these newsgroups - rec.arts.drwho and rec.arts.drwho.moderated .
It will appear around the same time as the Yahoo Group posting.
5) http://www.gallifreyanembassy.org/vortex?q=blog - This Week In Doctor Who has
a new agreement with the Gallifreyan Embassy site supplying the column as one of
their blogs. I expect there will be some tweaking in future weeks, and the link
may change.
6) Another web site invited me to put the column on their service. I have been
too busy to respond to them with a yes yet and figure out the details. If that
comes together, it should be up by next week. The final number of mirrors is yet
to be determined.
This Week In Doctor Who has been proud to be associated with Outpost Gallifrey
in one form or another since July 1998 when the column began. The column will
stay on the OG News Page till the end in late July.
For press releases on Doctor Who, keep an eye on the BBC Press Office

1) Home to the longest continuously running weekly-ish international Doctor Who
chat show done in podcast format. Hosted by Louis Trapani, Ken Deep, and James
Naughton, with frequent contributions/co-hosting by Dave AC, Mike Doran, and a
cast of many. There is a feed for studio shows and a feed for live shows.
2) Also home to the Sonic Newsdriver, Louis Trapani's periodic rundown of new
Doctor Who news.
3) Also home to the Hitch-hiker's Guide To British Sci-Fi, a podcast covering a
mix of shows, including Doctor Who.
Current episode:
-Podshock Episode 150. A message from Starship Sofa. Interview with Eliza
Roberts (wife of Eric Roberts, and co-guest starred with him on the 1996 Doctor
Who TV movie). And other news. Happy 150.
-Podshock Episode 151. The full team are back. Lots of feedback from e-mail,
phone, and Skype. The latest breaking news (including the companion announcement
- clearly done 24 hours after the rest of the show). Did I mention lots of
feedback? Tune in for a very animated Ken Deep.
Radio Free Skaro http://www.radiofreeskaro.com
The 3 Canadians (Warren, Steven, Chris) get together on the weekends for about
an hour or more to discuss the latest in Doctor Who, Torchwood, and Sarah Jane
in a fairly amusing manner. When one is away, the 4th Canadian (Katrina) will
play. They recently completed a series of bonus features on Wednesdays in
varying styles.
Current episode:
#142 - "Four To Doomsday". Warren, Steven, Chris, and Katrina join together for
the first time, creating a rare 4 person panel for Radio Free Skaro. David
Tennant has finished filming Doctor Who. The SPACE situation as known at the
time. Other witterings. And eventually the hosts discussed World War Three, the
fifth episode of the Christopher Eccleston run.
#143 - "Dalekaled". The team get to Dalek, an episode they all like, with an
author they've even spoken to before. By the way, the solution to the "2012 and
nobody knows what a ----- is" conundrum is to treat it like UNIT dating. The
stories are right, but the dates are either off by mistake or have been changed
by the government to keep secrets from the people. Tell Rob that - I'm sure
he'll be glad to know his episode is canonical again. Also, we get to learn if
these hosts found out that BBC One, Two, and Four were streaming live over the
internet worldwide the day Dalek premiered (30 April 2005), unencrypted. Were
they among the people who got to see the accidental worldwide transmission, and
are thus rather disappointed that four years later we do not have official
worldwide broadcasts of dramas yet. SPACE's announcements about Doctor Who's
future on TV plus BBC America's announcements about Doctor Who's future on TV
might also help the episode get past 50 minutes in length.
DWO Whocast http://www.thewhocast.com
Trevor from Australia and Marty from the UK talk Doctor Who with themselves,
others, and teddy bears dressed as doctors. Now with a rock version of the
opening theme, the Whocast continues to ask the questions that pop in to their
heads. Regular correspondent - James. Frequent guest - Michael of the Tin Dog
podcast.
Current episodes
Whocast Episode 120. A trio of DVD reviews. Trevor and Marty look at the Region
2 releases of Attack Of The Cybermen, Image Of The Fendahl, and The Deadly
Assassin.
Whocast Episode 121. A Whocast "Geek Out". Rambling off in all directions.
Tin Dog Podcast http://www.tin-dog.co.uk
UK based podcast looking at the latest in Doctor Who, Torchwood, or Sarah Jane
Adventures. New episodes ever 2 weeks or so.
Current episodes:
-91 - The Wheels On The Bus. Tin Dog reviews Planet Of The Dead. Michael reads
the Whostrology of Chris from Radio Free Skaro. Michael seems to be trying out
some new technology - lots of clips inserted. Almost Podshock levels of editing
stuff in, if Podshock was 19 minutes long.

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.
Current episode - CIA's 100 installment - The Hitchhiker's Guide To CIA. A
tribute to the world of Douglas Adams.
Upcoming episodes:
Sunday 2PM EDT/11AM PDT/7PM BST - Wizard's List of the Top 25 Science Fiction
Shows Ever. Part 2 - Shows 10 to 1. Topic may have to share time to reaction to
Doctor Who hopping networks for firstrun broadcasts in the USA. Some folks like
BBC America better. Some like it worse. Some don't get the station at all.
Two Minute Time Lord http://twominutetimelord.com
A bite-sized commentary and revew show. Host Chip's interest was rekindled by
the 2005 revival. He believes in balancing old fandom and new viewers, respect
for the past and breaking the rules. He tries to keep his pontifications to 120
seconds, because we're ALL in a hurry these days.
Current Episodes:
#24 - Doctor Who Moves To BBC America (Chip races out a podcast with the news of
the channel change)
#25 - Meet The Team Behind the "Ten Doctors" Webcomic (does what it says on the

Staggering Stories http://www.staggeringstories.net
A wild, wandering podcast with Doctor Who, Torchwood, Primeval, and other shows
winding together roughly once every 2 weeks. Mainly Doctor Who. And the
website's main focus is on stories collected through the years. They like Daleks
and Pertwee's head, don't they? (Disclaimer - I wrote a Mr. Dalek story for
them, and they published it. I'm infiltrating all these podcasts and sites.
Bwa-ha-ha.)
Current:
Episode 46 - "The Throwback" - Andy, Adam, Keith, Fake Keith, and guest host
Jean obsess on the new Trek film, Doctor Who DVD release Image Of The Fendahl,
surprising cancellations and renewals of US sci-fi shows, and a lot of feedback.
Has the Head of Pertwee started to attack peoples' homes?

Irregular and irreverant podcast looking at the world of Doctor Who with a
funhouse mirror and coming out the other side holding a plush toy that wasn't

MMM Commentaries http://www.mmmcommentaries.com
Roving Australian podcasting gang. Commentaries on Doctor Who episodes, Star
Wars films, some Stargate stuff, and others.
Current episode - The Curse Of Fenric - DVD Extended Version.
MMM noticed that no commentary was done for the recut movie version of The Curse

This Week In Doctor Who Western Hemisphere
May 30, 2009 - Vol 1, No 22
The Guide to North and South American Doctor Who TV Listings
by Benjamin F. Elliott
We have had some technical problems getting the column finished. Hopefully there
have been no drastic changes in the hours since it was supposed to go out.
CANADA - SPACE http://www.spacecast.com has announced their plans for Doctor
Who's future.
1) Planet Of The Dead airs on Saturday 25 July
2) As previously noted, SPACE has the specials. SPACE gets Series 5 in 2010.
3) In 2010, SPACE also gets Series 1 to 4, which previously aired on CBC. These
episodes are currently rerunning on CBC Bold.
4) SPACE will have Planet Of The Dead (and presumably later specials) available
to watch on their website for a period after broadcast. SPACE did this with The
Next Doctor. Anyone in Canada whose computer can handle video on a broadband
connection can tune in. Anyone outside Canada is cut off. Just like UK networks
exclude those outside the UK, USA networks exclude those outside the USA, and
Australian networks exclude those outside Australia. That's a lot of excluding.
If you were contacted a month or two back by somebody saying they were from
SPACE giving the date of Planet Of The Dead as Saturday 20 June SPACE does want
to know at feedback@... . SPACE's view is that they never gave out
this date, and would like to know who spoke on their behalf. SPACE mentioned
this on the DWIN blog http://www.dwin.org , so hopefully the people who reported
getting that message have contacted SPACE. Group hug, Canadians and Americans
who are a tad too close to get away.
USA - BBC America http://www.bbcamerica.com has obtained the first run rights to
The Next Doctor and the four 2009 Doctor Who specials, the final episodes in
David Tennant's run as the Doctor. Variety http://www.variety.com broke the
story Wednesday night, where Radio Free Skaro saw it and twittered. Within hours
it spread through twitter and a special edition of the Two Minute Timelord
podcast. BBC America now has details at http://press.bbcamerica.com .
1) The Next Doctor - USA premiere Saturday 27 June at 9PM Eastern/6PM Pacific.
2) Planet Of The Dead - USA premiere in July
3) The Waters Of Mars and the final 2 specials - airing later in 2009 and early
2010.
Congratulations, BBC America. Good job getting the specials. Now, we just have a
small point to deal with. The Next Doctor and Planet Of The Dead clocked in at
just about an hour not counting commercials. Odds are the remaining specials
will do the same. And you have this, er, problem. In the past, BBC America is
known for fitting dramas, Top Gear, and reality shows into 1 hour slots no
matter what the length of the show was. If the show was over 46 minutes long,
you have cut the episodes to fit the slot. Some of your airings of the Doctor
Who special Voyage Of The Damned and the Top Gear Vietnam special were welcome -
you gave extra time to reduce or elimate cutting. Please, please - do the same
with the upcoming Doctor Who specials. Actually, do the same with all your
programming and your ratings will RISE. But Doctor Who would make a good
starting place. A good place to draw a line and say - "From now on, we will
value our audience by valuing our programming." You'll get more viewers, viewers
who will tell your advertisers that they appreciate what BBC America is doing,
and your money would increase.
It is only fair to note that BBC America did *not* publicly commit to Series 5
in 2010. I am going to assume that they would want the first run of Series 5,
but until they choose to say something then we only have a committment for the
end of David Tennant's run.
BBC America claims to be in 64 million households while SciFi (former firstrun
Doctor Who home) claims to be in 93 million households. DirecTV subscribers -
tune to channel 264 to see if you have the channel. Dish Network subscribers -
tune to channel 135 to see if you have the channel. Cable subscribers - find the
list of channels you get from your cable company. Look for BBC America. Assuming
it is listed, try to tune in to that channel.
If you had SciFi but do not have BBC America, there are some legal options for
you to look into to see these specials. (SciFi/Syfy could buy the specials later
and they could air on PBS stations, but I'm not counting those options till they
happen.)
1) BBC America will put the episodes for sale on iTunes US store very shortly
after broadcast.
2) Thanks to a deal made in the last few days, the Zune platform (seems to work
with X-Box Live 360 - not familiar with the details) gets a lot of BBC America
shows. Doctor Who episodes are there now, and the future episodes are expected
to be there to buy as well.
3) Some cable systems have BBC America On Demand. Look for it - there's always a
(slim) chance you'd have access to it even if you did not have the main station.
Now that Doctor Who is a BBC America show, new episodes should go on the On
Demand service for a bit.
4) Now that we have a TV deal, the DVDs will come out. BBC America's press
release gave the famous "soon" as a date for DVD (and a Blu-Ray for Planet Of
The Dead, the first HD Doctor Who episode).
5) If you're not under a contract, you could find out whether a competing
cable/satellite service is available that meets your BBC America needs while at
an affordable price.
USA - Wisconsin Public TV http://www.wpt.org is starting Series 3 of Doctor Who
next Saturday 6 June at 8:40PM. An erroneous TV listing last week made it look
like they were dropping the Saturday drama lineup, but all 3 shows remain.
Remember that The Runaway Bride (the 6 June episode) is about 61 minutes long,
and will shove their 9:30 show to 9:40ish. Milwaukee Public TV is not part of
Wisconsin Public TV - the 3rd series of Doctor Who continues on Milwaukee Public
TV, with an encore of Series 2 coming at the end of June.
USA - WSKG/WSKA 46,30 Binghamton/Elmira, NY starts Series 3 at 11:30PM tonight
(special time).
USA - KTEH http://www.kteh.org is taking votes now on their Doctor Who Youtube
contest. See KTEH's Doctor Who blog (link at KTEH's schedule entry) for contest
details. The winner of the six contenders gets to host a Doctor Who marathon.
Meanwhile, Doctor Who will take most of June off after this Friday's showing of
Army Of Ghosts. Doctor Who returns on Sunday 28 June at 11PM (new day - the
Friday slot goes to a different show) with Doomsday.
USA - Doctor Who - Series 3 (The Runaway Bride and the 13 episode 2007 series
with Freema Agyeman as Martha Jones) are now distributed to Public TV stations
by BBC Worldwide Americas, not American Public TV. Series 4 also seems to be
available to buy - start date for Series 4 on Public TV stations is unknown. BBC
Worldwide Americas also distributes classic Doctor Who to stations.
The public TV stations known to have bought The Runaway Bride and Series 3:
WXXI 21 Rochester, NY
WTTW 11 Chicago, IL (expected July/August 2009)
WGVU/WGVK 35,52 Grand Rapids/Kalamazoo, MI
WILL 12 Urbana, IL
WTVP 47 Peoria, IL (currently in first run)
Iowa Public TV
Idaho Public TV
Wisconsin Public TV (starts 6 June at 8:40PM)
Milwaukee Public TV (currently in first run)
KUED 7 Salt Lake City, UT (currently in first run)
OETA Oklahoma (currently in first run)
KLRU 18 Austin, TX (currently in first run)
Alaska Public TV (currently in first run)
WSKG/WSKA 46,30 Binghamton/Elmira, NY (starts May 30 at 11:30PM)
Now, I am confident that there are more stations with rights to Series 3 than
that. But these are the stations who have contacted me. Somehow I doubt that BBC
Worldwide Americas is going to send out a note with the stations who bought in
like American Public TV did, leaving us in the dark till a station comes forward
or it appears in their schedules.
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. American Public TV is no longer offering Series 1 - I do not know if
BBC Worldwide Americas will offer those stations to public TV stations now or
not.
2 Public TV stations currently have rights to air the classic Doctor Who run
(1963-1989), but not New Who. KBTC 28 Tacoma, WA is airing Peter Davison
episodes. WHRO 15 Norfolk, VA is airing Tom Baker episodes.
In the USA, all the full power TV stations are currently due to turn off their
analog transmitters at 11:59PM on June 12, 2009 and go strictly to digital
broadcasting. This is the most recent final immovable date to be passed by
Congress and signed by the President. Roughly one third (about 600) of the
stations have previously turned off their analog signals and more will shut down
before June 12. Cable systems should already be picking up the digital signals
instead of the analog ones, so the cut off will not interrupt cable service.
Satellite customers who get their local channels on the satellite service should
have the same situation. If your TV gets local stations over the air and *does*
have a digital tuner built in or as a set top box, you are fine but will want to
keep doing new scans whenever stations in your area turn off analog, as the
level of overlapping station interference will decrease and many stations will
be moving to new broadcast frequencies to be received better. If a TV does not
have a digital tuner or a box, it will only be able to get some low power
stations that have chosen to stay analog once this transition is complete, and
depending on where you live you may have already noticed stations going away.

The Doctor Who team announced the actress playing the companion for Series 5 in
2010. I do not consider it a spoiler, but just this time, in case anybody is
trying to stay away from the info for a few days - the news is one of the top
stories at the Doctor Who News Page http://www.doctorwhonews.com .
TWIDW has had some major technical problems this time, so forgive any lack of
detail on the Doctor Who animated story on CBBC this fall, the Doctor guest
starring on Sarah Jane Adventures, and the ever present rumors of a Doctor Who
feature film. Since any of them are months away from airing, I can give them
less priority than other matters.
CANADA - SPACE made announcements recently. USA - BBC America grabbed the Doctor
Who specials from SciFi/Syfy. But these are matters for This Week In Doctor Who
Western Hemisphere. If you get this from e-mail or the Yahoo Group, you should
find it the next message over. If you are reading on the Outpost Gallifrey
website, scroll down the column a bit. Just past UKTV Australia's schedules.
My recent manifest on Doctor Who and international broadcasting is at
http://tv.groups.yahoo.com/group/thisweekindoctorwho/message/860 . It is getting
increasingly out of date, so this is probably the last time I'll include a link
before redrafting from scratch.
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.

reference to Thailand, so I must assume that the channel is not available in

chat show done in podcast format. Hosted by Louis Trapani, Ken Deep, and James
Naughton, with frequent contributions/co-hosting by Dave AC, Mike Doran, and a
cast of many. There is a feed for studio shows and a feed for live shows.
2) Also home to the Sonic Newsdriver, Louis Trapani's periodic rundown of new
Doctor Who news.
3) Also home to the Hitch-hiker's Guide To British Sci-Fi, a podcast covering a
mix of shows, including Doctor Who.
Current episodes:
- Segment in The DWO Whocast special episode 119 discussing Doctor Who and
international delays.
-Podshock Episode 149. News, reports from the Fab Cafe meetup, a feature on DVD
Easter Eggs, and Feedback.

Radio Free Skaro http://www.radiofreeskaro.com
The 3 Canadians (Warren, Steven, Chris) get together on the weekends for about
an hour or more to discuss the latest in Doctor Who, Torchwood, and Sarah Jane
in a fairly amusing manner. When one is away, the 4th Canadian (Katrina) will
play. They recently completed a series of bonus features on Wednesdays in
varying styles.
Current episodes:
-Special segment inside The DWO Whocast episode 119.
#141 - "The Curse Of Keith Boak". The episode Aliens Of London brought Doctor
Who back to Earth, brought back UNIT, revisited family, experimented with
topical political humor that dates incredibly badly, and had the first real Who
cliffhanger since 1989. Steven, Chris, and Katrina examine the cultural
implications of this episode while Warren misses an episode while fighting a
Slitheen army in Vancouver.
Coming Soon:
#142 - "That's A Wrap". David Tennant has finished filming Doctor Who. Chris is
live on the scene (give or take the distance of an entire country). As Canadians
react to the shocking news that Planet Of The Dead was never scheduled to air on
SPACE in June after all, the RFS team give comfort and solace by looking at
World War Three, the first episode to suffer in Canada by the CBC being given a
damaged print.
DWO Whocast http://www.thewhocast.com
Trevor from Australia and Marty from the UK talk Doctor Who with themselves,
others, and teddy bears dressed as doctors. Now with a rock version of the
opening theme, the Whocast continues to ask the questions that pop in to their
heads. Regular correspondent - James. Frequent guest - Michael of the Tin Dog
podcast.
Current episodes
Whocast episode 118. Part One of two. Trevor and Marty team up with Chip from
the Two Minute Time Lord podcast and Benjamin from This Week In Doctor Who in a
special panel discussion. The worldwide discussion on Doctor Who is hampered by
how it gets delayed in so many countries. People download the episodes to avoid
having to wait for weeks or months. The issues and the thoughts of 4 people are
expressed here. Warning - Chip and Benjamin were very tired when this was
recorded.
Whocast Episode 119. Part Two of two. Doctor Who: Podshock, Radio Free Skaro,
The Minute Doctor Who Podcast, the Tin Dog Podcast, DaveAC Cooper of CIAShock
and a popular VLog continue the topic of Doctor Who and delays from country to
country.
Whocast Episode 120 (just went online). A trio of DVD reviews. Trevor and Marty
look at the Region 2 releases of Attack Of The Cybermen, Image Of The Fendahl,
and The Deadly Assassin.
Tin Dog Podcast http://www.tin-dog.co.uk

Adventures. New episodes ever 2 weeks or so.
Current episodes:

At press time, it was expected that Tin Dog Podcast submitted a segment to the
Whocast episode 119 special - see the Whocast listing.

call in number (724) 444-7444 call id 30659
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.
Current episode - Wizard's List of the Top 25 Science Fiction Shows Ever. Part 1
- Shows 25 to 11.
Upcoming episodes:
Sunday 2PM EDT/11AM PDT/7PM BST - CIA's 100 installment - The Hitchhiker's Guide

Doctor Who Review Today http://www.talkshoe.com/tc/22756
Live editions Late Fridays 1AM EDT/10PM PDT/6AM BST
Robert Carrie King reviews Doctor Who topics (DVDs and news, mostly) on this
Talkshoe program. Frequent cast member on CIA: Cultdom In Audio.
Most recent episode - May 22/23. Episode 34. Arc Of Infinity's DVD release is
discussed. Also - Utopia (from new Series 3). This episode is well over 2 hours
long, so Robert probably had some guests and/or callers.
The Wailing Fangirl http://www.talkshoe.com/tc/22228
Samantha (Romana 2) explores Doctor Who and fandom in Australia, sometimes with
the aid of the ladies of the Gallifreyan Time Love Brigade. Frequent cast member
on CIA: Cultdom In Audio.
Current episode - 8. A look at the First Doctor's Era.
Coming soon - they were planning to gush poetically when Planet Of The Dead
arrives. Waiting for that episode to arrive.
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 episode:
Planet Of The Dead - the commentary.
Bigger On The Inside http://www.earth-2.net
Mike and Dan 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? Part of the Earth-2 family of podcasts. Warning - explicit language
(swearing). If your headphones leak any sound at all - do not listen at work.
Current episode - 13 - The Daleks' Master Plan. The longest Doctor Who story of
the 1960s is the sole topic of this episode.
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 episode - 13 - The Web Planet. Includes an update on the delays in the
interactive website Jonathan is planning.
Hoo On Who http://hooonwho.com
Fan reviews of recent Doctor Who DVDs by David Hooie, frequently with a guest
co-host.
Current episode - #9. Inferno. An epic 3rd Doctor story is reviewed, with guest
Ken Deep of Doctor Who: Podshock.
Two Minute Time Lord http://twominutetimelord.com
A bite-sized commentary and revew show. Host Chip's interest was rekindled by
the 2005 revival. He believes in balancing old fandom and new viewers, respect
for the past and breaking the rules. He tries to keep his pontifications to 120
seconds, because we're ALL in a hurry these days.
Current Episodes:
20 - "Inaccurately Named" In a special 6 minute episode (triple the usual
length), Chip discusses his visit to the Whocast for their episode 118 and the
Star Trek relaunch versus the Doctor Who relaunch.
21 - "About That Casting Spoiler" Were you shocked by a recent casting
announcement for the upcoming Doctor Who specials (there were several to choose
from). Two Minute Time Lord is here to calm you down.
22 - "The Highway Fan Challenges Steven Moffat" Because we all have a great
story inside us wanting to get out. Chip's story is for Doctor #11.
23 - "Thank You, David Tennant" Benjamin Cook of DWM has tweeted the news. David
Tennant has finished his filming on Doctor Who. Nothing left to do but say
thanks.
The Minute Doctor Who Podcast
http://web.mac.com/backintheussr6/The_Minute_Doctor_Who_Podcast/Podcast/Podcast.\
html
Video (sometimes just audio) podcast looking at Doctor Who projects. Episodes
are usually under 5 minutes long.
Current episode - 13 - "Parlour Games" A nice audio episode discussiong the
games that can be played with episode titles. Once again, iTunes will happily
play it on the computer, but refuses to send it to an iPod.
Staggering Stories http://www.staggeringstories.net
A wild, wandering podcast with Doctor Who, Torchwood, Primeval, and other shows
winding together roughly once every 2 weeks.
Current:
Episode 45 - "The Throwback" - Doctor Who convention, swine flu scares the
movies, the future of Heroes, the past of Terminator, and the ever present
threat of the Head of Pertwee.
Promo - Staggering Stories tries to do an advertisement for themselves.
Coming soon:
The infamous Episode 46
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 - Last Of The Titans, pt 2. A classic freebie episode goes out
on the feed. Regular episodes to continue shortly.
Tachyon TV - Tachyon TV entry should be up next week. Need to find some tachyons
to string it together with first.
MMM Commentaries http://www.mmmcommentaries.com
Roving Australian podcasting gang. Commentaries on Doctor Who episodes, Star
Wars films, some Stargate stuff, and others.
Current episode - The Curse Of Fenric - DVD Extended Version.
MMM noticed that no commentary was done for the recut movie version of The Curse
Of Fenric on its DVD set either. So MMM does their own, along the line of their
recent commentary for Battlefield's DVD Extended Version. I had not heard it at
press time - but hope it is good.
The Two Doctors http://www.blogtalkradio.com/thetwodoctors
call in number (718) 664-9807
Jim Iaccino and Kenn Gold look at the latest SciFi broadcasts in the US, with
emphasis on fitting in Doctor Who, Dollhouse, Smallville, Supernatural, Fringe,
Torchwood, and the other big scifi shows of the moment. Everything is based on
US premiere dates rather than UK. Approximately 90 minutes per episode. Show
airs live with a text chat and can be downloaded later.
Next episode - Late Sunday Midnight EDT/9PM PDT/Monday 5AM BST - The US TV
season is over. But Harper's Island is still running, Torchwood is coming,
Doctor Who isn't scheduled, Medium hopped networks, Smallville and Fringe are
switching days, and a holiday weekend will almost surely break the program they
host the show on. Oh dear.
TV Talk Radio http://blogtalkradio.com/shaunomacradio
Weeknights 6 to 8PM EDT (3 to 5PM PDT) [Friday 7PM EDT/4PM PDT]
Shaun O'Mac Daily (of the Jericho "nuts" campaign) hosts a daily 2 hour show

This Week In Doctor Who Western Hemisphere
May 23, 2009 - Vol 1, No 21
The Guide to North and South American Doctor Who TV Listings
by Benjamin F. Elliott
CANADA - SPACE http://www.spacecast.com is not airing Planet Of The Dead on
Saturday 20 June as we originally thought. They report that it was never
scheduled for that date. Planet will air on SPACE on a date yet to be determined
or announced.
USA - Wisconsin Public TV is dropping the Saturday drama lineup that Doctor Who
has aired in after tonight's encore of Doomsday. It is not known if Doctor Who
will be getting a new timeslot or sitting on the bench for a while (Doctor Who
is off the next 2 weeks). Milwaukee Public TV is not part of Wisconsin Public TV
- the 3rd series of Doctor Who continues on Milwaukee Public TV, with an encore
of Series 2 coming at the end of June.
USA - KTEH http://www.kteh.org is taking votes now on their Doctor Who Youtube
contest. See KTEH's Doctor Who blog (link at KTEH's schedule entry) for contest
details. The winner of the six contenders gets to host a Doctor Who marathon.
Meanwhile, Doctor Who will take most of June off after this Friday's showing of
Army Of Ghosts. Doctor Who returns on Sunday 28 June at 11PM (new day - the
Friday slot goes to a different show) with Doomsday.
USA - Doctor Who - Series 3 (The Runaway Bride and the 13 episode 2007 series
with Freema Agyeman as Martha Jones) are now distributed to Public TV stations
by BBC Worldwide Americas, not American Public TV. Series 4 also seems to be
available to buy - start date for Series 4 on Public TV stations is unknown. BBC
Worldwide Americas also distributes classic Doctor Who to stations.
The public TV stations known to have bought The Runaway Bride and Series 3:
WXXI 21 Rochester, NY
WTTW 11 Chicago, IL (expected July/August 2009)
WGVU/WGVK 35,52 Grand Rapids/Kalamazoo, MI
WILL 12 Urbana, IL
WTVP 47 Peoria, IL (currently in first run)
Iowa Public TV
Idaho Public TV
Milwaukee Public TV (currently in first run)
KUED 7 Salt Lake City, UT (currently in first run)
OETA Oklahoma (currently in first run)
KLRU 18 Austin, TX (currently in first run)
Alaska Public TV (currently in first run)
WSKG/WSKA 46,30 Binghamton/Elmira, NY (starts May 30 at 11:30PM)
Now, I am confident that there are more stations with rights to Series 3 than
that. But these are the stations who have contacted me. Somehow I doubt that BBC
Worldwide Americas is going to send out a note with the stations who bought in
like American Public TV did, leaving us in the dark till a station comes forward
or it appears in their schedules.
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. American Public TV is no longer offering Series 1 - I do not know if
BBC Worldwide Americas will offer those stations to public TV stations now or
not.
2 Public TV stations currently have rights to air the classic Doctor Who run
(1963-1989), but not New Who. KBTC 28 Tacoma, WA is airing Peter Davison
episodes. WHRO 15 Norfolk, VA is airing Tom Baker episodes.
In the USA, all the full power TV stations are currently due to turn off their
analog transmitters at 11:59PM on June 12, 2009 and go strictly to digital
broadcasting. This is the most recent final immovable date to be passed by
Congress and signed by the President. Roughly one third (about 600) of the
stations have previously turned off their analog signals and more will shut down
before June 12. Cable systems should already be picking up the digital signals
instead of the analog ones, so the cut off will not interrupt cable service.
Satellite customers who get their local channels on the satellite service should
have the same situation. If your TV gets local stations over the air and *does*
have a digital tuner built in or as a set top box, you are fine but will want to
keep doing new scans whenever stations in your area turn off analog, as the
level of overlapping station interference will decrease and many stations will
be moving to new broadcast frequencies to be received better. If a TV does not
have a digital tuner or a box, it will only be able to get some low power
stations that have chosen to stay analog once this transition is complete, and
depending on where you live you may have already noticed stations going away.
And now, the listings:

I have tried to get the correct digital switch day for each of these stations.
The dates have shifted for some stations, and I have not been able to recheck
them all. If you are watching these stations over the air instead of via cable
or satellite provided locals, your best bet is to make sure you have a digital
tuner NOW (built into your TV, VCR, DVR, DVDR, etc or as a set-top box).

Doctor Who is a BBC Trademark. Copyright 2009.
For weeks, it has been reported by many people (myself included) that the SPACE Channel in Canada would air the Easter 2009 Doctor Who Special "Planet Of The Dead" on Saturday June 20 at 9:30PM Eastern (6:30PM Pacific). It turns out we were mistaken.
Steven from Radio Free Skaro noticed that SPACE put up a Who-less schedule for June 20. An e-mail to SPACE's feedback department later, and we have the current facts.

Hi Benjamin, The Doctor Who Planet of the Dead will not be airing until a bit later this summer, but this has not been confirmed. It will NOT be airing June 20,(not sure where that date came from), but we will release the firm date in a couple of weeks. I can't wait either, and would love it if we could air it sooner.
Keep in mind, we will be broadcasting the whole special online, for a 7-day post-broadcast catch-up window, in case you can't make the live airing. ---------
So, everybody can take June 20 off their calendars. False alarm. Hopefully the correct date will propagate once we have one.

As The Torchwood Timetable Turns.
Since our last get together:
1) Watch http://www.uktv.co.uk pulled the paragraph from their June highlights
that referred to new episodes of Torchwood on BBC One the week of 15 June. No
evidence remains now except our memories.
2) BBC America http://www.bbcamerica.com has continued to hype the July premiere
of the new Torchwood episodes in the USA. People are claiming there is a press
release by BBC America stating they are airing the episodes the same days as BBC
One (in July). I have not seen this release.
3) There is apparently a publicity picture on the BBC indicating a Torchwood
airdate in Week 25 (20 to 26 June). Haven't seen this picture yet.
4) The only folks who can settle this and give a firm airdate are the people at
BBC One http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcone . They're not talking. If they follow their
usual scheduling practices we will remain in the dark until roughly 2 weeks
before the UK premiere. And all the speculation, heartache, and frantic messages
we're sending around will mean - nothing.
I'm tired of playing the "guess the airdate" game. I don't know. None of us
know.

call in number (724) 444-7444 call id 23358
1) Home to the longest continuously running weekly-ish international Doctor Who
chat show done in podcast format. Hosted by Louis Trapani, Ken Deep, and James
Naughton, with frequent contributions/co-hosting by Dave AC, Mike Doran, and a
cast of many. There is a feed for studio shows and a feed for live shows.
2) Also home to the Sonic Newsdriver, Louis Trapani's periodic rundown of new
Doctor Who news.
3) Also home to the Hitch-hiker's Guide To British Sci-Fi, a podcast covering a
mix of shows, including Doctor Who.
Current episodes:
Episodes 148 - Lots of feedback, and a review of Four To Doomsday.
At press time, it was expected that Podshock submitted a segment to the Whocast
episode 119 special - see the Whocast listing.
As of this writing, Episode 149 was in post production, hoping to go online on
the 16th (today). News, reports from the Fab Cafe meetup, a feature on DVD
Easter Eggs, and Feedback expected at this time.
Radio Free Skaro http://www.radiofreeskaro.com
The 3 Canadians (Warren, Steven, Chris) get together on the weekends for about
an hour or more to discuss the latest in Doctor Who, Torchwood, and Sarah Jane
in a fairly amusing manner. When one is away, the 4th Canadian (Katrina) will
play. They recently completed a series of bonus features on Wednesdays in
varying styles.
Current episodes:
#140 - "The Gay(seous) Agenda". The team discusses "The Unquiet Dead", the 3rd
episode of the Christopher Eccleston era. Unquiet Dead is a story style that the
team should love. But it is also responsible for - Christmas episodes, Celebrity
Historicals, Psychic power in New Who, Eve Myles, Cardiff in Doctor Who stories,
the rift that Torchwood would settle on, Rose being linked to the "Bad Wolf"
arc, and embarrasing critical darling The End Of The World by getting a much
larger audience. How did the team handle the episode with this knowledge?
At press time, it was expected that Radio Free Skaro submitted a segment to the
Whocast episode 119 special - see the Whocast listing.
Coming soon:
#141 - "Canadians Of London". The episode Aliens Of London brought Doctor Who
back to Earth, brought back UNIT, revisited family, experimented with topical
political humor that dates incredibly badly, and had the first real Who
cliffhanger since 1989. Possibly the most controversial episode of the Eccleston
set. How will RFS cope? Personally I'd skip it and run for the hills.
DWO Whocast http://www.thewhocast.com
Trevor from Australia and Marty from the UK talk Doctor Who with themselves,
others, and teddy bears dressed as doctors. Now with a rock version of the
opening theme, the Whocast continues to ask the questions that pop in to their
heads. Regular correspondent - James. Frequent guest - Michael of the Tin Dog
podcast.
Current episode:
Whocast episode 118. Part One of two. Trevor and Marty team up with Chip from
the Two Minute Time Lord podcast and Benjamin from This Week In Doctor Who in a
special panel discussion. The worldwide discussion on Doctor Who is hampered by
how it gets delayed in so many countries. People download the episodes to avoid
having to wait for weeks or months. The issues and the thoughts of 4 people are
expressed here. Warning - Chip and Benjamin were very tired when this was
recorded.
Coming today (May 16):
Episode 119. (Might already be up when the column goes out - certainly due
today) In the epic part 2, a collection of Doctor Who podcasters submit their
own thoughts and views on how Doctor Who airs around the world. Tentatively
expected - the Doctor Who: Podshock team, Radio Free Skaro, the Minute Doctor
Who Podcast, and DaveAC representing his wine Vlog and the CIA podcast. I hope I
got them all in. If you want to know if I got it right or not, you'll have to
listen - won't you?
Tin Dog Podcast http://www.tin-dog.co.uk
Weekly UK based podcast looking at the latest in Doctor Who, Torchwood, or Sarah
Jane Adventures. New episodes ever 2 weeks or so.
Current episode:
89 - The Deadly Assassin DVD review.
At press time, it was expected that Tin Dog Podcast submitted a segment to the
Whocast episode 119 special - see the Whocast listing.

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.
Current episode - The Needs Of Many CIA Listeners. In light of the new Star Trek
movie, CIA explores Star Trek for the first time! This time - the new Star Trek
film.
Upcoming episodes:
Sunday 2PM EDT/11AM PDT/7PM BST - topic to be determined, though I have a
suspicion that a few minutes will go to reaction to another podcast. Call it a
hunch.
24 May 2PM EDT/11AM PDT/7PM BST - CIA 1000 - The Hitchhiker's Guide To CIA
Doctor Who Review Today http://www.talkshoe.com/tc/22756
Live editions Late Fridays 1AM EDT/10PM PDT/6AM BST

Talkshoe program. Frequent cast member on CIA: Cultdom In Audio.
Most recent episode - May 8/9. Episode 33. The boxset of The Invisible Enemy and
K9 and Company: A Girl's Best Friend. Also - The Long Game.
The Wailing Fangirl http://www.talkshoe.com/tc/22228
Samantha (Romana 2) explores Doctor Who and fandom in Australia, sometimes with
the aid of the ladies of the Gallifreyan Time Love Brigade. Frequent cast member
on CIA: Cultdom In Audio.
Current episode - 8. A look at the First Doctor's Era.
Coming soon - they were planning to gush poetically when Planet Of The Dead
arrives. Waiting for that episode to arrive.
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 episode:
Planet Of The Dead - the commentary.
Bigger On The Inside http://www.earth-2.net
Mike and Dan 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? Part of the Earth-2 family of podcasts. Warning - explicit language
(swearing). If your headphones leak any sound at all - do not listen at work.
Current episode - 12 - Galaxy 4, Mission To The Unknown, and The Myth Makers.
The reviews get more challenging as the video of these episodes is lost. And
Mike faces the departure of his beloved Vicki. Everything changes.
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 episode - 13 - The Web Planet. Includes an update on the delays in the
interactive website Jonathan is planning.
Hoo On Who http://hooonwho.com
Fan reviews of recent Doctor Who DVDs by David Hooie, frequently with a guest
co-host.
Current episode - #9. Inferno. An epic 3rd Doctor story is reviewed, with guest
Ken Deep of Doctor Who: Podshock. I've heard it now - it is a good episode.
Two Minute Time Lord http://twominutetimelord.com
A bite-sized commentary and revew show. Host Chip's interest was rekindled by
the 2005 revival. He believes in balancing old fandom and new viewers, respect
for the past and breaking the rules. He tries to keep his pontifications to 120
seconds, because we're ALL in a hurry these days.
Current Episode:
20 - "" In a special 6 minute episode (triple the usual length), Chip discusses
his visit to the Whocast for their episode 118 and the issue of ...
The Minute Doctor Who Podcast
http://web.mac.com/backintheussr6/The_Minute_Doctor_Who_Podcast/Podcast/Podcast.\
html
Video (sometimes just audio) podcast looking at Doctor Who projects. Episodes
are usually under 5 minutes long.
Current episode - 13 - "Parlour Games" A nice audio episode discussiong the
games that can be played with episode titles. Once again, iTunes will happily
play it on the computer, but refuses to send it to an iPod.
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 - Last Of The Titans, pt 2. A classic freebie episode goes out
on the feed. Regular episodes to continue shortly.
MMM Commentaries http://www.mmmcommentaries.com
Roving Australian podcasting gang. Commentaries on Doctor Who episodes, Star
Wars films, some Stargate stuff, and others.
Current episode - The Curse Of Fenric - DVD Extended Version.
MMM noticed that no commentary was done for the recut movie version of The Curse
Of Fenric on its DVD set either. So MMM does their own, along the line of their
recent commentary for Battlefield's DVD Extended Version. I had not heard it at
press time - but hope it is good.
The Two Doctors http://www.blogtalkradio.com/thetwodoctors
call in number (718) 664-9807
Jim Iaccino and Kenn Gold look at the latest SciFi broadcasts in the US, with
emphasis on fitting in Doctor Who, Dollhouse, Smallville, Supernatural, Fringe,
Torchwood, and the other big scifi shows of the moment. Everything is based on
US premiere dates rather than UK. Approximately 90 minutes per episode. Show
airs live with a text chat and can be downloaded later.
Next episode - Late Sunday Midnight EDT/9PM PDT/Monday 5AM BST - FOX has shocked
us all by renewing Dollhouse in spite of ratings that would give the CW network
second thoughts. Good news, but a shocker. Fringe (with Leonard Nimoy),
Smallville, and Supernatural aired their finales. Primeval had its US premiere
of the 3rd series - nobody tell the hosts what's happening later on in the run,
please. Are the ads for Torchwood big enough for our hosts to have spotted them
this time?
TV Talk Radio http://blogtalkradio.com/shaunomacradio
Weeknights 6 to 8PM EDT (3 to 5PM PDT) [Friday 7PM EDT/4PM PDT]
Shaun O'Mac Daily (of the Jericho "nuts" campaign) hosts a daily 2 hour show
covering all things TV. Doctor Who is sometimes discussed in the 2nd hour of the
Friday show with Two Doctors co-host Kenn Gold. Listen and chat live through the

Staggering Stories http://www.staggeringstories.net
A wild, wandering podcast with Doctor Who, Torchwood, Primeval, and other shows
winding together roughly once every 2 weeks.
Current:
Episode 45 - "The Throwback" - Doctor Who convention, swine flu scares the
movies, the future of Heroes, the past of Terminator, and the ever present
threat of the Head of Pertwee.
Tachyon TV - Tachyon TV entry should be up next week. Need to find some tachyons
to string it together with first.

This Week In Doctor Who Western Hemisphere

The Guide to North and South American Doctor Who TV Listings
by Benjamin F. Elliott
USA - Doctor Who - Series 3 (The Runaway Bride and the 13 episode 2007 series
with Freema Agyeman as Martha Jones) are now distributed to Public TV stations
by BBC Worldwide Americas, not American Public TV. Series 4 also seems to be
available to buy - start date for Series 4 on Public TV stations is unknown. BBC
Worldwide Americas also distributes classic Doctor Who to stations.
The public TV stations known to have bought The Runaway Bride and Series 3:
WXXI 21 Rochester, NY
WTTW 11 Chicago, IL (expected July/August 2009)
WGVU/WGVK 35,52 Grand Rapids/Kalamazoo, MI
WILL 12 Urbana, IL
WTVP 47 Peoria, IL (currently in first run)
Iowa Public TV
Idaho Public TV
Milwaukee Public TV (currently in first run)
KUED 7 Salt Lake City, UT (currently in first run)
OETA Oklahoma (currently in first run)
KLRU 18 Austin, TX (currently in first run)
Alaska Public TV (currently in first run)
WSKG/WSKA 46,30 Binghamton/Elmira, NY (starts May 30 at 11:30PM)
Now, I am confident that there are more stations with rights to Series 3 than
that. But these are the stations who have contacted me. Somehow I doubt that BBC
Worldwide Americas is going to send out a note with the stations who bought in
like American Public TV did, leaving us in the dark till a station comes forward
or it appears in their schedules.
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. American Public TV is no longer offering Series 1 - I do not know if
BBC Worldwide Americas will offer those stations to public TV stations now or
not.
2 Public TV stations currently have rights to air the classic Doctor Who run
(1963-1989), but not New Who. KBTC 28 Tacoma, WA is airing Peter Davison
episodes. WHRO 15 Norfolk, VA is airing Tom Baker episodes.
In the USA, all the full power TV stations are currently due to turn off their
analog transmitters at 11:59PM on June 12, 2009 and go strictly to digital
broadcasting. This is the most recent final immovable date to be passed by
Congress and signed by the President. Roughly one third (about 600) of the
stations have previously turned off their analog signals and more will shut down
before June 12. Cable systems should already be picking up the digital signals
instead of the analog ones, so the cut off will not interrupt cable service.
Satellite customers who get their local channels on the satellite service should
have the same situation. If your TV gets local stations over the air and *does*
have a digital tuner built in or as a set top box, you are fine but will want to
keep doing new scans whenever stations in your area turn off analog, as the
level of overlapping station interference will decrease and many stations will
be moving to new broadcast frequencies to be received better. If a TV does not
have a digital tuner or a box, it will only be able to get some low power
stations that have chosen to stay analog once this transition is complete, and
depending on where you live you may have already noticed stations going away.
And now, the listings:

Next airdate unknown.
BBC America is saying in e-mail responses to fan queries that the full length
version of Journey's End will air in June (date TBA). The February version was a
45 to 46 minute cutdown version of the original 63 minute episode.
Public TV Premiere Run:
I have tried to get the correct digital switch day for each of these stations.
The dates have shifted for some stations, and I have not been able to recheck
them all. If you are watching these stations over the air instead of via cable
or satellite provided locals, your best bet is to make sure you have a digital
tuner NOW (built into your TV, VCR, DVR, DVDR, etc or as a set-top box).

This Week In Doctor Who

The weekly guide to Doctor Who broadcasts worldwide since 1998.

Upcoming Premiere Broadcasts:
Tuesday 19 May:
Ztele Canada 9PM EDT - The Doctor's Daughter (French version)

Sunday 31 May:

Wednesday 3 June:

Saturday 20 June:
SPACE Canada 9:30PM EDT - Planet Of The Dead (Canada covered in This Week In
Doctor Who Western Hemisphere)
First, as you can see in the upcoming premiere broadcasts, New Zealand Doctor
Who fans have a day and time for Planet Of The Dead, the newest Doctor Who
episode. It has been mentioned on the NZDWFC forum http://nzdwfc.tetrap.com that
Planet is airing 51 days after the UK premiere, the closest an episode has ever
aired in New Zealand to the UK premiere.
The secret is out - on May 9th I took part in a special recording for the DWO
Whocast http://www.thewhocast.com along with Chip of the Two Minute Time Lord
and the regular Whocast hosts. Listed as Episode 118 of the Whocast, it is the
first of two episodes. 119 features the views of various Doctor Who podcasters
and should be out before most of you get this column. Why can't Doctor Who air
at the same time around the world? Why the delays? It's not technology. These
points and more were hashed out among us. It's a good episode. Be aware that we
used Skype. Also, due to time issues, Chip and I were doing this at 6AM, and our
voices do suffer a bit. Very honored to be involved.
The show was inspired in part by my recent manifest on Doctor Who and
international broadcasting. Find it at
http://tv.groups.yahoo.com/group/thisweekindoctorwho/message/860 . I think the
issue bugs everybody, and we all are searching for answers in our own way. How
do we get the new episodes available at the same time everywhere?
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

The weekly guide to Torchwood transmissions.
by Benjamin F. Elliott
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/torchwoodhttp://groups.yahoo.com/group/thisweekindoctorwho
Doctor Who schedule information is in This Week In Doctor Who
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/thisweekindoctorwho .
Hints to the Torchwood Series 3 schedule are coming out.
First, the Watch channel in the UK (airs Torchwood repeats) claims they are
airing repeats at 10PM from 15 to 19 June, immediately after new episodes air on
BBC One. This implies that the new Torchwood episodes air Monday to Friday, 15
to 19 June, 9PM BST, BBC One. That said, BBC One is not going to make an
announcement until much closer to the air date and they could always change
their mind.
Second, UKTV in Australia and BBC America in the USA are now advertising that
the new Torchwood episodes will air in July. If this is the case, and BBC One
airs the new episodes in June, then the hoped for simulcast between various
countries on the UK premiere date will not happen.
Corrections and updates are welcome at torchwood-owner@yahoogroups.com , TWIDW
on AIM, bfelliott on Twitter, and thebfe on Yahoo Messenger.

1) Home to the longest continuously running weekly-ish international Doctor Who
chat show done in podcast format. Hosted by Louis Trapani, Ken Deep, and James
Naughton, with frequent contributions/co-hosting by Dave AC, Mike Doran, and a
cast of many. There is a feed for studio shows and a feed for live shows.
2) Also home to the Sonic Newsdriver, Louis Trapani's periodic rundown of new
Doctor Who news.
3) Also home to the Hitch-hiker's Guide To British Sci-Fi, a podcast covering a
mix of shows, including Doctor Who.
Current episodes:
Episodes 146 and 147 - Louis has cleaned up the Podshock Live special from April
19 and released it as 2 episodes of Podshock. Live panel discussion regarding
the recent episode "Planet Of The Dead".
Radio Free Skaro http://www.radiofreeskaro.com
The 3 Canadians (Warren, Steven, Chris) get together on the weekends for about
an hour or more to discuss the latest in Doctor Who, Torchwood, and Sarah Jane
in a fairly amusing manner. When one is away, the 4th Canadian (Katrina) will
play. They also are doing a series of bonus features on Wednesdays in varying
styles.
Current episodes:
#139 - "An Absence Of Pedantry" - The Radio Free Skaro team of Warren, Steven,
and Katrina watch and comment on The End Of The World, Episode 2 of Series 1 of
the current Doctor Who show. Chris Burgess was stuck twittering and drinking
with a parade of podcasters at the Fab Cafe event. How does one become a fan of
Christopher Eccleston? At what point did you know that the BBC could do special
effects?
#Wednesday Bonus - "HiSciFi Interviews Radio Free Skaro's Warren Frey" - A
recent college radio interview with Warren, discussing his career, Doctor Who,
Radio Free Skaro, Doctor Who, meeting celebrities, and Doctor Who.
Coming soon:
#140 - "Torchwood's Backdoor Pilot" (not necessarily the title). The team
discusses "The Unquiet Dead", the 3rd episode of the Christopher Eccleston era.
Unquiet Dead is a story style that the team should love. But it is also
responsible for - Christmas episodes, Celebrity Historicals, Psychic power in
New Who, Eve Myles, Cardiff in Doctor Who stories, the rift that Torchwood would
settle on, Rose being linked to the "Bad Wolf" arc, and embarrasing critical
darling The End Of The World by getting a much larger audience. How will the
team handle the episode with this knowledge?
#Wednesday bonus of some nature or another.
DWO Whocast http://www.thewhocast.com
Trevor from Australia and Marty from the UK talk Doctor Who with themselves,
others, and teddy bears dressed as doctors. Now with a rock version of the
opening theme, the Whocast continues to ask the questions that pop in to their
heads. Regular correspondent - James. Frequent guest - Michael of the Tin Dog
podcast.
Current episode:
Whocast episode 117. James reviews the DVD of The Romans. Harelquin figures
class up Random Fandom. Trevor and Marty talk the news. And hints are dropped.
Coming this week:
Episodes 118 and 119. A Whocast two part special, if everything works out. If
you can only hear 2 new episodes of the Whocast this week - listen to these two
episodes. The truth will be revealed.
Tin Dog Podcast http://www.tin-dog.co.uk
Weekly UK based podcast looking at the latest in Doctor Who, Torchwood, or Sarah
Jane Adventures. New episodes ever 2 weeks or so.
Current episode:
89 - The Deadly Assassin DVD review. Haven't gotten to hear this latest episode
yet.

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.
Current episode - Shocking Deaths in TV and SF. Sometimes your favorites heroes
and villains fail to survive the story. Remember the twists that shocked you
all. Mention a few that the others on the call forget. The actual content of
this high quality episodes escapes me at the moment. Dave AC was missing due to
the Fab Cafe event that also swallowed Chris Burgess and other podcasters.
Upcoming episodes:
Sunday 2PM EDT/11AM PDT/7PM BST - The Needs Of Many CIA Listeners. In light of
the new Star Trek movie, CIA explores Star Trek for the first time! Will it be
the last? Can the topic Live Long And Prosper?
17 May 2PM EDT/11AM PDT/7PM BST - topic to be determined, though I have a
suspicion that a few minutes will go to reaction to another podcast. Call it a
hunch.
24 May 2PM EDT/11AM PDT/7PM BST - CIA 1000 - The Hitchhiker's Guide To CIA
Doctor Who Review Today http://www.talkshoe.com/tc/22756
Live editions Late Fridays 1AM EDT/10PM PDT/6AM BST
Robert Carrie King reviews Doctor Who topics (DVDs and news, mostly) on this
Talkshoe program. Frequent cast member on CIA: Cultdom In Audio.
Most recent episode - May 8/9. Episode 33. The boxset of The Invisible Enemy and
K9 and Company: A Girl's Best Friend. Also - The Long Game.
The Wailing Fangirl http://www.talkshoe.com/tc/22228
Samantha (Romana 2) explores Doctor Who and fandom in Australia, sometimes with
the aid of the ladies of the Gallifreyan Time Love Brigade. Frequent cast member
on CIA: Cultdom In Audio.
Current episode - 8. A look at the First Doctor's Era.
Coming soon - they are planning to gush poetically when Planet Of The Dead
arrives.
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 episode:
Planet Of The Dead - the commentary.
Bigger On The Inside http://www.earth-2.net
Mike and Dan 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? Part of the Earth-2 family of podcasts. Warning - explicit language
(swearing). If your headphones leak any sound at all - do not listen at work.
Current episode - 12 - Galaxy 4, Mission To The Unknown, and The Myth Makers.
The reviews get more challenging as the video of these episodes is lost. And
Mike faces the departure of his beloved Vicki. Everything changes.
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 episode - 13 - The Web Planet. Includes an update on the delays in the
interactive website Jonathan is planning.
Hoo On Who http://hooonwho.com
Fan reviews of recent Doctor Who DVDs by David Hooie, frequently with a guest
co-host.
Current episode - #9. Inferno. An epic 3rd Doctor story is reviewed, with guest
Ken Deep of Doctor Who: Podshock. I haven't been able to listen yet, but it is
on today's agenda.
Two Minute Time Lord http://twominutetimelord.com
A bite-sized commentary and revew show. Host Chip's interest was rekindled by
the 2005 revival. He believes in balancing old fandom and new viewers, respect
for the past and breaking the rules. He tries to keep his pontifications to 120
seconds, because we're ALL in a hurry these days.
Current Episode:
19 - "Is There Enough SPACE In Doctor Who?" Not a comment on the new Canadian
home of Doctor Who. Rather, Chip considers if Doctor Who is doing its bit for
space travel as well as time.
The Minute Doctor Who Podcast
http://web.mac.com/backintheussr6/The_Minute_Doctor_Who_Podcast/Podcast/Podcast.\
html
Video (sometimes just audio) podcast looking at Doctor Who projects. Episodes
are usually under 5 minutes long.
Current episode - 12 - "Would You Like A Liquorice Allsort?" Another audio only
episode, though this time iTunes co-operated and it plays fine. If the Doctor
handed out his candy better, would the universe be a better place? Luke makes
his case.
**BREAKING** - As the column was going through its final edit, Luke twittered
that he sent out another episode. No time to confirm content before TWIDW goes
out.
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 - Last Of The Titans, pt 2. A classic freebie episode goes out
on the feed. Regular episodes to continue shortly.
MMM Commentaries http://www.mmmcommentaries.com
Roving Australian podcasting gang. Commentaries on Doctor Who episodes, Star
Wars films, some Stargate stuff, and others.
Current episode - Battlefield - DVD Extended Version.
MMM noticed that no commentary was done for the recut movie version of
Battlefield on the new DVD set. So MMM does their own. It is a very good
commentary. However, as they have it listed as Terror Of The Zygons pt 4, there
is a good chance you deleted it before listening, mistaking it for a duplicate
of their recent commentary on Terror Of The Zygons pt 4. The Zygons commentary
is 20 some minutes. The Battlefield commentary is over 90 minutes. That's how to
keep them straight.
The Two Doctors http://www.blogtalkradio.com/thetwodoctors
call in number (718) 664-9807
Jim Iaccino and Kenn Gold look at the latest SciFi broadcasts in the US, with
emphasis on fitting in Doctor Who, Dollhouse, Smallville, Supernatural, Fringe,
Torchwood, and the other big scifi shows of the moment. Everything is based on
US premiere dates rather than UK. Approximately 90 minutes per episode. Show
airs live with a text chat and can be downloaded later.
Next episode - Late Sunday Midnight EDT/9PM PDT/Monday 5AM BST - Dollhouse had
its FOX season finale. Smallville and Supernatural are heading for cliffhangers.
Primeval is on the way - assuming they heard the news. And much more news.
TV Talk Radio http://blogtalkradio.com/shaunomacradio
Weeknights 6 to 8PM EDT (3 to 5PM PDT) [Friday 7PM EDT/4PM PDT]
Shaun O'Mac Daily (of the Jericho "nuts" campaign) hosts a daily 2 hour show
covering all things TV. Doctor Who is sometimes discussed in the 2nd hour of the
Friday show with Two Doctors co-host Kenn Gold. Listen and chat live through the
website with archives appearing right after the show finishes.
Staggering Stories http://www.staggeringstories.net
A wild, wandering podcast with Doctor Who, Torchwood, Primeval, and other shows
winding together roughly once every 2 weeks.
Current:
Episode 44 - "Back To Earth - Of The Dead" - Red Dwarf's revival and Planet Of
The Dead create controversy for the Staggering Storiers. Also - a special
unedited segment to demonstrate to listeners why they edit the show. And they
notice that fans of Dollhouse outside the United States will get a better TV
experience than Dollhouse fans inside the United States, as the last episode was
not bought by FOX. The wonder might be lost when they realize that King Of The
Hill is being treated the same way.
Episode 45 was expected out at any time now.

This Week In Doctor Who Western Hemisphere
May 9, 2009 - Vol 1, No 19
The Guide to North and South American Doctor Who TV Listings
by Benjamin F. Elliott
BBC Worldwide America did sell the public TV stations a 46 1/2 minute version of
Last Of The Time Lords, not the full 51 minute version. For comparison, this
will be *longer* than what you may have seen on SciFi, BBC America, or CBC out
of Canada. It should be exactly the same as the edited version that was on CBC's
website after the broadcast of Last Of The Time Lords. It would appear that BBC
Worldwide Americas cheaped out and only had one version available, even though
decades of experience (plus the sale of The Runaway Bride in the same darn
syndication package) should have made it clear that the stations could cope with
an episode of unusual length. Hopefully BBC Worldwide Americas can figure out
their mistake and offer a full version of the episode later.
BBC America http://www.bbcamerica.com is interrupting their Doctor Who repeat
run after this weekend. The Unicorn And The Wasp and Midnight air today. Voyage
Of The Damned repeats a few times tomorrow. Time slot for Doctor Who repeats
temporarily filled with Torchwood repeats.
USA - Doctor Who - Series 3 (The Runaway Bride and the 13 episode 2007 series
with Freema Agyeman as Martha Jones) are now distributed to Public TV stations
by BBC Worldwide Americas, not American Public TV. Series 4 also seems to be
available to buy - start date for Series 4 on Public TV stations is unknown. BBC
Worldwide Americas also distributes classic Doctor Who to stations.
The public TV stations known to have bought The Runaway Bride and Series 3:
WXXI 21 Rochester, NY
WTTW 11 Chicago, IL (expected July/August 2009)
WGVU/WGVK 35,52 Grand Rapids/Kalamazoo, MI (currently in first run)
WILL 12 Urbana, IL
WTVP 47 Peoria, IL (currently in first run)
Iowa Public TV (currently in first run)
Idaho Public TV
Milwaukee Public TV (currently in first run)
KUED 7 Salt Lake City, UT (currently in first run)
OETA Oklahoma (currently in first run)
KLRU 18 Austin, TX (currently in first run)
Alaska Public TV (currently in first run)
(new!) WSKG/WSKA 46,30 Binghamton/Elmira, NY (starts May 30 at 11:30PM)
Now, I am confident that there are more stations with rights to Series 3 than
that. But these are the stations who have contacted me. Somehow I doubt that BBC
Worldwide Americas is going to send out a note with the stations who bought in
like American Public TV did, leaving us in the dark till a station comes forward
or it appears in their schedules.
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. American Public TV is no longer offering Series 1 - I do not know if
BBC Worldwide Americas will offer those stations to public TV stations now or
not.
2 Public TV stations currently have rights to air the classic Doctor Who run
(1963-1989), but not New Who. KBTC 28 Tacoma, WA is airing Peter Davison
episodes. WHRO 15 Norfolk, VA is airing Tom Baker episodes.
In the USA, all the full power TV stations are currently due to turn off their
analog transmitters at 11:59PM on June 12, 2009 and go strictly to digital
broadcasting. This is the most recent final immovable date to be passed by
Congress and signed by the President. Roughly one third (about 600) of the
stations have previously turned off their analog signals and more will shut down
before June 12. Cable systems should already be picking up the digital signals
instead of the analog ones, so the cut off will not interrupt cable service.
Satellite customers who get their local channels on the satellite service should
have the same situation. If your TV gets local stations over the air and *does*
have a digital tuner built in or as a set top box, you are fine but will want to
keep doing new scans whenever stations in your area turn off analog, as the
level of overlapping station interference will decrease and many stations will
be moving to new broadcast frequencies to be received better. If a TV does not
have a digital tuner or a box, it will only be able to get some low power
stations that have chosen to stay analog once this transition is complete, and
depending on where you live you may have already noticed stations going away.
And now, the listings:

Public TV Premiere Run:
I have tried to get the correct digital switch day for each of these stations.
The dates have shifted for some stations, and I have not been able to recheck
them all. If you are watching these stations over the air instead of via cable
or satellite provided locals, your best bet is to make sure you have a digital
tuner NOW (built into your TV, VCR, DVR, DVDR, etc or as a set-top box).

should become apparent to much of the readership in the next few days. Fun
experience. Sometimes technology can work well. But enough teasing.
I'll mention the manifesto on Doctor Who and international broadcasting again,

May 2, 2009 - Vol 3, No 18
The weekly guide to Torchwood transmissions.
by Benjamin F. Elliott
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/torchwoodhttp://groups.yahoo.com/group/thisweekindoctorwho
Doctor Who schedule information is in This Week In Doctor Who
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/thisweekindoctorwho .
USA - BBC America has revised their schedule (again). Here is the new Torchwood
plan.
Tonight - Countrycide and Greeks Bearing Gifts (Ashes To Ashes Series 2 removed
from schedule)
May 9th - Captain Jack Harkness and End Of Days (end of primetime run, Primeval
returns May 16)
May 23rd - End Of Days and Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang (Torchwood replaces the 6PM
Doctor Who block outside of prime time)
May 30th - Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang and To The Last Man
Torchwood is coming to the countries in the Scandinavian region of Europe.
Series 1 airs Mondays starting 8 June.
As for Torchwood Series 3 - no schedule yet. The assumption is still June or
July. 5 nights from either Monday to Friday or Sunday to Thursday (my money's on
Sunday to Thursday). BBC America, UKTV in Australia, and all other networks will
have to accomodate BBC One in the UK and how that network wants to air the
episodes.

do a full length commentary on new Doctor Who episodes.
Current episode:
Planet Of The Dead - the commentary.
Bigger On The Inside http://www.earth-2.net
Mike and Dan 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? Part of the Earth-2 family of podcasts. Warning - explicit language
(swearing). If your headphones leak any sound at all - do not listen at work.
Current episode - 11 - The Chase and The Time Meddler. Goodbye to Ian and
Barbara. Hello to Steven Taylor. What did they think?

of the Gallifreyan Embassy, and how a Long Island Fan Club spawned a worldwide
podcast.
Two Minute Time Lord http://twominutetimelord.com
A bite-sized commentary and revew show from the perspective of a formerly casual
fan. Host Chip's interest was rekindled by the 2005 revival. He believes in
balancing old fandom and new viewers, respect for the past and breaking the
rules. He tries to keep his pontifications to 120 seconds, because we're ALL in
a hurry these days.
Current Episode:
18 - Steven Moffat and online fandom. Steven left online fandom shortly before
he was announced as the new showrunner for Doctor Who. Chip misses his input. Is
his departure for the good, or for the bad?

html

Current episode - 11 - Our host tries an audio episode on various topics. If
iTunes refuses to download the episode to your iPod, try just listening on the
computer as a workaround.
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 - April News. The latest in Doctor Who and all the other
branches. Early reactions to Vooooooooorrrrrrtexxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.
While we do not have a May episode yet, I'd expect one soon.
MMM Commentaries http://www.mmmcommentaries.com
Roving Australian podcasting gang. Commentaries on Doctor Who episodes, Star
Wars films, some Stargate stuff, and others.
Current episode - Battlefield - DVD Extended Version.
MMM noticed that no commentary was done for the recut movie version of
Battlefield on the new DVD set. So MMM does their own. It is a very good
commentary. However, as they have it listed as Terror Of The Zygons pt 4, there
is a good chance you deleted it before listening, mistaking it for a duplicate
of their recent commentary on Terror Of The Zygons pt 4. The Zygons commentary
is 20 some minutes. The Battlefield commentary is over 90 minutes. That's how to
keep them straight.
The Two Doctors http://www.blogtalkradio.com/thetwodoctors
call in number (718) 664-9807
Jim Iaccino and Kenn Gold look at the latest SciFi broadcasts in the US, with
emphasis on fitting in Doctor Who, Dollhouse, Terminator, Smallville,
Supernatural, Fringe, and the other big scifi shows of the moment. Everything is
based on US premiere dates rather than UK. Approximately 90 minutes per episode.
Show airs live with a text chat and can be downloaded later.
Next episode - Late Sunday Midnight EDT/9PM PDT/Monday 5AM BST - Dollhouse,
Smallville, and Supernatural are back. Primeval is on the way - assuming they
heard the news. And much more news.
TV Talk Radio http://blogtalkradio.com/shaunomacradio
Weeknights 6 to 8PM EDT (3 to 5PM PDT) [Friday 7PM EDT/4PM PDT]
Shaun O'Mac Daily (of the Jericho "nuts" campaign) hosts a daily 2 hour show
covering all things TV. Doctor Who is sometimes discussed in the 2nd hour of the
Friday show with Two Doctors co-host Kenn Gold. Listen and chat live through the
website with archives appearing right after the show finishes.
Staggering Stories http://www.staggeringstories.net
A wild, wandering podcast with Doctor Who, Torchwood, Primeval, and other shows
winding together roughly once every 2 weeks.
Current:
Episode 44 - "Back To Earth - Of The Dead" - Red Dwarf's revival and Planet Of
The Dead create controversy for the Staggering Storiers. Also - a special
unedited segment to demonstrate to listeners why they edit the show. And they
notice that fans of Dollhouse outside the United States will get a better TV
experience than Dollhouse fans inside the United States, as the last episode was
not bought by FOX. The wonder might be lost when they realize that King Of The
Hill is being treated the same way.

This Week In Doctor Who Western Hemisphere
May 2, 2009 - Vol 1, No 18
The Guide to North and South American Doctor Who TV Listings
by Benjamin F. Elliott
Still waiting to hear from somebody who has seen Last Of The Time Lords on a PBS
station. Did BBC Worldwide Americas sell the stations the full version or a cut
version. Somebody will have to see the episode and get in contact.
BBC America http://www.bbcamerica.com revised their schedule one more time
(again). The two hour block of Doctor Who currently at Saturdays at 6PM Eastern
(3PM Pacific) concludes on May 9, replaced by Torchwood on May 23. Midnight
replaces Silence In The Library on May 9 so the show does not end in the middle
of a 2 parter. Voyage Of The Damned (90 minute version) is getting a special
Sunday showing on Sunday May 10th at 9:30PM, 12:30AM, and 3:30AM Eastern
(6:30PM, 9:30PM, and 12:30AM Pacific). The Torchwood repeats are probably to
promote the 3rd Series which will be on BBC America soon - I suspect the Doctor
Who repeat run will be put back on the schedule at a later date.
USA - Doctor Who - Series 3 (The Runaway Bride and the 13 episode 2007 series
with Freema Agyeman as Martha Jones) are now distributed to Public TV stations
by BBC Worldwide Americas, not American Public TV. Series 4 also seems to be
available to buy - start date for Series 4 on Public TV stations is unknown. BBC
Worldwide Americas also distributes classic Doctor Who to stations.
The public TV stations known to have bought The Runaway Bride and Series 3:
WXXI 21 Rochester, NY (already running)
WTTW 11 Chicago, IL (expected July/August 2009)
WGVU/WGVK 35,52 Grand Rapids/Kalamazoo, MI (already running)
WILL 12 Urbana, IL (already running)
WTVP 47 Peoria, IL (already running)
Iowa Public TV (already running)
Idaho Public TV (already running)
Milwaukee Public TV (already running)
KUED 7 Salt Lake City, UT (already running)
OETA Oklahoma (already running)
KLRU 18 Austin, TX (already running)
Alaska Public TV (already running)
Now, I am confident that there are more stations with rights to Series 3 than
that. But these are the stations who have contacted me. Somehow I doubt that BBC
Worldwide Americas is going to send out a note with the stations who bought in
like American Public TV did, leaving us in the dark till a station comes forward
or it appears in their schedules.
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. American Public TV is no longer offering Series 1 - I do not know if
BBC Worldwide Americas will offer those stations to public TV stations now or
not.
2 Public TV stations currently have rights to air the classic Doctor Who run
(1963-1989), but not New Who. KBTC 28 Tacoma, WA is airing Peter Davison
episodes. WHRO 15 Norfolk, VA is airing Tom Baker episodes.
In the USA, all the full power TV stations are currently due to turn off their
analog transmitters at 11:59PM on June 12, 2009 and go strictly to digital
broadcasting. This is the most recent final immovable date to be passed by
Congress and signed by the President. Roughly one third (about 600) of the
stations have previously turned off their analog signals and more will shut down
before June 12. Cable customers are not noticing the change. Satellite customers
who get their local channels on the satellite service are not noticing the
change. If your TV gets local stations over the air and *does* have a digital
tuner built in or as a set top box, you are fine but will want to keep doing new
scans whenever stations in your area turn off analog, as the level of
overlapping station interference will decrease and many stations will be moving
to new broadcast frequencies to be received better. If a TV does not have a
digital tuner or a box, it will only be able to get some low power stations that
have chosen to stay analog once this transition is complete, and depending on
where you live you may have already noticed stations going away.

Public TV Premiere Run:
I have tried to get the correct digital switch day for each of these stations.
The dates have shifted for some stations, and I have not been able to recheck
them all. If you are watching these stations over the air instead of via cable
or satellite provided locals, your best bet is to make sure you have a digital
tuner NOW (built into your TV, VCR, DVR, DVDR, etc or as a set-top box).
