Torchwood This Week
July 3/4, 2009 - Volume 3, Number 27
The weekly guide to Torchwood transmissions.

Torchwood: Children Of Earth - it is here!
UK Premiere - Monday 6 July 9PM BST on BBC One and BBC HD
Australia premiere - Tuesday 7 July 8:30PM Australian Eastern on UKTV Australia
and BBC HD Australia
USA Premiere - Monday 20 July 9PM EDT on BBC America
Canada Premiere - Monday 20 July 10PM EDT on SPACE
Torchwood Series 3 (Children Of Earth) has its world premiere Monday to Friday 6
July through 10 July at 9PM BST on BBC One and BBC HD. Great to have a date at
last. UK audiences who miss the 9PM showing can catch late night repeats on BBC
Three or BBC HD - time varies a few minutes each night, but around the Midnight
hour. If you miss on TV, then you have iPlayer for a few days or the DVDs and
Blu-Rays late in the month. No evidence of TV repeats after 10 July.
While the concept of a worldwide premiere fell apart, UKTV in Australia will be
airing the Torchwood episodes just hours after the premieres in the UK. Tuesday
through Saturday 7 through 11 July at 8:30PM Australian Eastern Time, with
repeats at 1:30AM that night and 11:30AM the next morning. UKTV then repeats the
episodes over the following 5 weeks if you miss the premiere. BBC HD Australia
was previously reported to be simulcasting the Torchwood episodes with UKTV - I
cannot find evidence of those broadcasts yet. Crossing fingers - we will see
what BBC HD Australia does. They are currently repeating Series 1 multiple times
per week.
BBC America in the USA and SPACE in Canada will air Children Of Earth on the
same 5 days - Monday 20 July to Friday 24 July, two weeks after the UK and
Australia airings. There are still holes in listings, but here is the current
status.
SPACE goes first cause this is easier:
First showing - 10PM Eastern all 5 days (75 minutes including commercials)
Second showing - 2:15AM Eastern all 5 days (75 minutes including commercials)
BBC America:
Inside The Hub special - Monday 20 July at 8PM and 11PM and 1:30AM Eastern
(edited repeat Sunday 2 July at 1PM Eastern)
Full length versions of episodes - weeknights at 9PM and Midnight and 2:30AM
Eastern (75 minutes including commercials)
Inside Look - documentaries on each episode - weeknights at 10:15PM and 1:15AM
and 3:45AM Eastern (15 minutes)
Edited versions of episodes - weeknights at 8PM and 11PM and 1:30AM Eastern (60
minutes including commercials the next weekday)
Marathon repeat - Sunday 26 July from 1:45PM Eastern (the extended broadcasts).
Ends 8PM.
Before this series airs, there are 3 new Torchwood radio plays on BBC Radio 4.
1, 2, and 3 July at 2:15PM BST each day. (The third one is probably airing as
you get this column. They can be heard around the world and will stay online for
a week after broadcast. Sadly, if you wish to download them as a podcast and you
are outside the UK, the BBC will tell you that the podcast is not available to
download in your area.
India - BBC Entertainment India has ceased to be, and you now seem to be in BBC
Entertainment Asia's territory. Now, BBC Entertainment Asia has been airing more
Torchwood and Doctor Who. That could be a nuisance for Torchwood fans, as I
don't recall BBC Entertainment India showing Series 2 of Torchwood, while BBC
Entertainment Asia is just about to finish it, and then the show goes on hiatus.
Here's hoping for a quick repeat so anybody left out from being on BBC
Entertainment India gets to catch up.

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 154 - Interview with Charlie Ross of Big Finish fame. Also,
feedback. And, Ken Deep tries to do a review of an audio adaptation of Power Of
The Daleks on Audible, but time is short.
-Sonic Newsdriver July 3, 2009. 15 minutes of headlines from the worlds of
Doctor Who.
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.
Current episode:
#147 - "Dancing Doctors And Empty Children" - A surprisingly retro episode of
Radio Free Skaro when original hosts Warren and Steven wind up having to do this
one by themselves. Positive news about Torchwood still has them stunned. And
during the episode commentary, they notice some details about the episode. Work
of genius, or clever story with some plotholes. They're always going to go for
the plotholes, aren't they? They're never going to do the genius angle.
Coming Soon:
#148 - "Meditations On The 11th Song Of The Album" - Of the 4 full Doctor Who
series and 2 full Torchwood series, 6 episodes stand out as ones where some of
the regular characters have to take a few minutes and look at themselves,
sometimes with disturbing results. All 6 of these episodes were number 11 of 13
in the regular run. Why is this? Well, the first such episode 11 is Boom Town,
and this is the episode that Radio Free Skaro will play in the background while
they run off in various directions.
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:
#126 - Christopher Eccleston, part 2 of 3. September 2003 - Doctor Who's return
is announced. March 2004 - Christopher Eccleston is announced as the new Doctor,
breaking all expectations. March 2005 - Eccleston's episodes premiere, and the
world is electrified. The Whocast team look at Eccleston's impact on Doctor Who.
This time - episode by episode. Rose through The Long Game are evaluated and
lovingly explored. The Whocast found this running long, so they announced that a
special 3rd episode would be out in a few days completing the Eccleston review.
Coming Soon:
#127 - Christopher Eccleston, part 3 of 3
#128 - An as yet unannounced topic, but as Torchwood will be airing in both the
UK and Australia, it would seem the obvious topic to either cover or bravely run
away from in Sir Robin fashion.
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:
#94 - Bang! and the Doctor is gone. The UK DVD release of The War Games, the
epic 10 episode story that finished Patrick Troughton's era as the 2nd Doctor,
gets a Tin Dog review. Michael tries to illuminate the mysteries of the end of
the black and white era.

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. Show founder West has alerted Dave AC and Colin that he will
return full time to hosting duties with episode 101. Chats open 15 minutes
before the scheduled start time.
Current episode - 96. The Man Behind The Curtain
Upcoming episodes (titles and topics subject to change):
Sunday 2PM EDT/11AM PDT/7PM BST - 97. TV Series Finales
and on Sunday 26 July - the real 100th episode. Dave AC and Colin retire as the
regular guest hosts. Meanwhile, the show remembers its past and plans for the
future.

Dave AC and Colin have guest hosted CIA so much that they developed a taste for
doing it themselves. So they are launching their own show starting Sunday 2
August. Now the two shows will be side by side, one after the other for twice
the chatting on twice the topics. Chats open 15 minutes before the scheduled
start time.
Upcoming episode:
2 August 3:30PM EDT/12:30PM PDT/8:30PM BST - 1. No title/topic yet. Based on the
announced day and time, this is where the new show should be.
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:
#33 - Since Rose, Outpost Gallifrey/The Doctor Who Forum has had polls allowing
its membership to rate all the episodes. Chip has collected this data to
preserve it with the end of the old forum. He's noticed some intriguing details.
So intriguing that the episode lasts nearly 4 minutes! Plus, has anybody ever
compared Journey's End to Transformers 2: Revenge Of The Fallen?
#34 - Review - Torchwood Radio Play - Asylum. The first of 3 new Torchwood radio
plays gets Chip's review style.
#35 - Review - Torchwood Radio Play - Golden Age. The second of 3 new Torchwood
radio plays gets Chip's review style.
Coming Soon:
#36 - Review - Torchwood Radio Play - The Dead Line. The third of 3 new
Torchwood radio plays - same as the first two.
With 5 new Torchwood TV episodes in the next week, I suspect more episodes of
Two Minute Time Lord are on the way..
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.
Current:
Episode 48 - "Our Segments Overrunneth" - Without Jean - Andy, Adam, Keith, and
Fake Keith find that the show runs rather long, and the typically very long
feedback section near the end of the show got shortened to less than a minute of
headlines. They watched "The Invasion", the famous Patrick Troughton story that
now has 2 animated episodes that ought to be shown on TV - come on,
broadcasters! Speaking of animated, David Tennant's got another one coming. Ads
for other shows, Primeval's autopsy, the Dalek invasion of a flower shop, actors
guest starring on shows, and other stuff.
Coming this weekend - Episode 49. "The Staggering Stories Code" - or whatever
they're calling the episode. Fake Keith had to miss it, so the remaining 4 have
to carry on.
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. Flashing Blade wants to be known as the podcast that
would like a nice cup of tea.
Current episode - 4. Jo! and the Tony forgot from experience - Marco Polo - very
long. Aliens Of London - longest episode of new Who to that point. The 4th
episode of just about every podcast around - they were the longest to date.
Somehow, episode 4 means it goes long. So, tune in for a Long (by their
standards) episode of The Flashing Blade podcast. Big Finish play reviewed -
"Wirrn Dawn". Doctor Who TV story - "The Unquiet Dead". Doctor Who person who
they quite like but decide to play with anyway - Nick Briggs, the man who is
everywhere.
Coming soon - 5. Already recorded by now, this episode promises to look at the
Big Finish "Scapegoat" and some obscure Doctor Who story called "Genesis Of The
Daleks".
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 - 17 (audio episode). Doctor Who Mastermind, Series 1, Episode
1. Extended episode (nearly 12 minutes long). Luke starts a competition based on
the popular UK quiz show Mastermind. First up - Tony Gallichan. Coming in late
July (Luke's on vacation till then) - more of these installments. Try to guess
which people were crazy enough to volunteer.
Doctor Who Review Today http://www.talkshoe.com/tc/22756
call in number (724) 444-7444 talkshoe id 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 26/27. Episode 37. Summer movie overview, this week's
major celebrity passings, plus the DVDs of Battlefield (classic Who) and The
Satan Pit (new Who) are discussed. The chat must have gotten active - the show
runs 3 hours, 1 minute, and 38 seconds. I wonder which DVD caused more debate -
my money's on Battlefield. I've heard the show now - Battlefield got the most
attention.
Next episode due to record on July 3/4.
The Tennantcast http://tennantcast.com
Kelsey, Kari, and friends get together to dish on the latest David Tennant news.
7 - Gender boundaries are crossed as a man (George) guest co-hosts. The hosts
begin looking at David Tennant's acting roles, one at a time. First up - Barty
Crouch, Jr. Must remember to message them with a David Tennant acting role that
has been largely forgotten about, the first thing I saw him in, years before the
Doctor Who revival. Oh, I could tell everybody now, but it's more fun to leave
this hanging open for a week or so ...
Keeping an eye out - still no sign of the next episode. Hmm.
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:
Big Finish Special - Indefinable Magic. Co-host Caleb Woodbridge has a story
published in the last regular Big Finish Short Trips collection. The podcast
looks at his story in particular and short stories in general.
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 - 16 - The Savages and The War Machines. Exit Steven Taylor,
with fanfare. Exit Dodo Chaplet, without fanfare. A largely forgotten story and
the first story that hints at the UNIT sagas to come. Fresh meat for our hosts
to sink their teeth into.
****Alas, poor Whovian Quest
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?
The Whovian Quest website is offline, and no new episodes have arrived in
months. I have enjoyed the show, and really wanted to hear it get through the
series. Does anybody know if Jonathan is continuing? I'm serious, guys.
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 - June 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, including Trevor from the DWO Whocast.
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 - The Fires Of Pompeii. Series 4 of Doctor Who began with the
Titanic, moved on to the adventure of the cuddly fat, and then it did a
semi-historical. MMM looks at the semi-historical.
The Two Doctors http://www.blogtalkradio.com/thetwodoctors
call in number (718) 664-9807

US premiere dates rather than UK. Approximately 90 minutes per episode. Show
airs live with a text chat and can be downloaded later.
Current episode - Harper's Island, Virtuality, other new shows, and the US
premiere of The Next Doctor were discussed. And sometimes you just figure you're
too close to some issues, so I'll leave it at that.
Next episode - Late Sunday 12 July Midnight EDT/9PM PDT/Monday 5AM BST (they're
taking this weekend off)
TV Talk Radio http://blogtalkradio.com/shaunomacradio
Weeknights 6 to 8PM EDT (3 to 5PM PDT) [Friday 7PM EDT/4PM PDT]

This Week In Doctor Who Western Hemisphere
July 3/4, 2009 - Vol 1, No 27
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 at 9PM Eastern (two repeats on 26 July in blocks with The Next Doctor
repeats). BBC America's next Doctor Who Broadcast is Planet Of The Dead on
Sunday 26 July at 8PM, 11PM, and 2AM Eastern.
USA - BBC America aired The Next Doctor complete on Saturday 27 June and has
already put the episode on iTunes. Its DVD release is in September. Sadly, no
repeats on TV are currently scheduled. Also, BBC America listed the episode as
75 minutes but ran it for 79 minutes, causing most people who recorded the
episode to watch it later to miss the ending. And BBC America's On Demand
schedule has updated - Doctor Who is not part of their On Demand service. Now,
there is a Doctor Who marathon scheduled for Sunday 19 July, but The Next Doctor
is not part of it. Currently:
Sunday 19 July:
3PM - Utopia
4PM - The Sound Of Drums/Last Of The Time Lords (movie version, edited version
of Last Of The Time Lords)
6PM - The Stolen Earth/Journey's End (same heavy edit of Journey's End from
February)
Now, if anybody at BBC America is listening, wouldn't this make a better
marathon?
3PM - Turn Left (unedited, 65 minute time slot - you've never shown this one
uncut before)
4:05PM - The Stolen Earth
5:05PM - Journey's End (90 minute time slot to air it uncut, you promised an
uncut showing on your message board months ago)
6:35PM - The Next Doctor (85 minute time slot - 80 minutes for the episode now
that we know the real running time, 5 minutes to hype lots of HD stuff)
Note - I am e-mailing this idea to BBC America and twittering it at them, but
this is my idea. The listing higher up is what BBC America is actually doing
unless they change their mind.
CANADA - Ztele http://www.ztele.com will air Journey's End in a 60 minute time
slot starting Tuesday 7 July. Since the episode was a bit over 63 minutes long,
this will mean significant editing. Ztele aired Voyage Of The Damned (72 minute
episode) in a 90 minute slot, so it is possible that they were unaware that a
complete version of Journey's End was available. Somebody get ahold of BBC
Worldwide Canada so they can alert Ztele to this fact and find out if Ztele
wants to swap out for the better one. Ztele is a French language station.
USA - SciFi changes their name to Syfy on Tuesday 7 July. All the
http://www.scifi.com links will switch to http://www.syfy.com at that point. As
of this time, the change in name is not affecting their Doctor Who repeat
schedule.
USA - KTEH http://www.kteh.org has a winner in their Doctor Who Youtube contest.
See KTEH's Doctor Who blog (link at KTEH's schedule entry) to see who won. This
winner gets to host a Doctor Who marathon in the future.
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 (starts 2 August 10PM CDT)
WGVU/WGVK 35,52 Grand Rapids/Kalamazoo, MI
WILL 12 Urbana, IL
WTVP 47 Peoria, IL
Iowa Public TV
Idaho Public TV
Wisconsin Public TV
Milwaukee Public TV
KUED 7 Salt Lake City, UT (currently in first run)
OETA Oklahoma
KLRU 18 Austin, TX (currently in first run)
Alaska Public TV
WSKG/WSKA 46,30 Binghamton/Elmira, NY (currently in first run)
KERA 13 Dallas, TX (starts late 11 July Midnight CDT)
Now, I am confident that there are more stations with rights to Series 3 than
that. (Just added KERA in Dallas - hooray.) But these are the stations who have
contacted me or scheduled the show. Unlike previous years, we are in the dark
till a station comes forward or new Who 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.

USA:
Viewer alert - BBC America does not have a repeat of last weekend's special "The
Next Doctor" scheduled in July. It is on iTunes already at $1.99 to buy,
apparently uncut. DVD is out in September. I know where BBC America could repeat
it without a problem, and will tell them. No guarantee they will listen, of
course. Some people are annoyed because they missed the episode (I've had it
listed and hyped for weeks). Others because BBC America ran it for 79 minutes
instead of 75 minutes and their machines stopped recording before the end
(you're on your own with that one, BBC America - next time check how long it
will run and update schedules accordingly). I am delighted that some extended
length episodes are finally getting extended slots, but we will have to be
careful and sometimes allow more time.

This Week In Doctor Who has been proud to be associated with Outpost Gallifrey
in one form or another since July 1998 when this column began. Thanks for all
the glorious years.
Quiet week for Doctor Who (Torchwood gets most of the excitement - see Torchwood
This Week). There is an interesting bit of consolidation, though. Remember how
BBC Entertainment has spread through the Eastern Hemisphere? Some new
territories but also subdividing old BBC Prime ground? With the goal of having
the channel tailored with unique schedules in every country? Well, BBC
Entertainment India has been shut down, and Indian audiences are now getting
merged into BBC Entertainment Asia. They're probably getting a better deal this
way (certainly Doctor Who and Torchwood-wise), but it is odd to see this
pushback from the slow march to having every country on its own schedule.
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

Torchwood This Week
June 27, 2009 - Volume 3, Number 26
The weekly guide to Torchwood transmissions.

Torchwood: Children Of Earth - it is coming!
UK Premiere - Monday 6 July 9PM BST on BBC One and BBC HD
Australia premiere - Tuesday 7 July 8:30PM Australian Eastern on UKTV Australia
USA Premiere - Monday 20 July 9PM EDT on BBC America
Canada Premiere - Monday 20 July 10PM EDT on SPACE
Torchwood Series 3 (Children Of Earth) has its world premiere Monday to Friday 6
July through 10 July at 9PM BST on BBC One and BBC HD. Great to have a date at
last. UK audiences who miss the 9PM showing can catch late night repeats on BBC
Three or BBC HD - time varies a few minutes each night, but around the Midnight
hour. If you miss on TV, then you have iPlayer for a few days or the DVDs and
Blu-Rays late in the month. No evidence of TV repeats after 10 July.
While the concept of a worldwide premiere fell apart, UKTV in Australia will be
airing the Torchwood episodes just hours after the premieres in the UK. Tuesday
through Saturday 7 through 11 July at 8:30PM Australian Eastern Time, with
repeats at 1:30AM that night and 11:30AM the next morning. UKTV then repeats the
episodes over the following 5 weeks if you miss the premiere. BBC HD Australia
was previously reported to be simulcasting the Torchwood episodes with UKTV - I
cannot find evidence of those broadcasts yet. Crossing fingers - we will see
what BBC HD Australia does. They are currently repeating Series 1 multiple times
per week.
BBC America in the USA and SPACE in Canada will air Children Of Earth on the
same 5 days - Monday 20 July to Friday 24 July, two weeks after the UK and
Australia airings. There are still holes in listings, but here is the current
status.
SPACE goes first cause this is easier:
First showing - 10PM Eastern all 5 days (75 minutes including commercials)
Second showing - 2:15AM Eastern all 5 days (75 minutes including commercials)
BBC America:
Inside The Hub special - Monday 20 July at 8PM Eastern
Full length versions of episodes - weeknights at 9PM and Midnight Eastern (75
minutes including commercials)
Edited versions of episodes - weeknights at 8PM and 11PM Eastern (60 minutes
including commercials the next weekday)
Marathon repeat - Sunday 26 July at 1PM Eastern (not known which version of
episodes will air)
Before this series airs, there are 3 new Torchwood radio plays on BBC Radio 4.
1, 2, and 3 July at 2:15PM BST each day. They can be heard around the world and
will stay online for a week after broadcast.

Nickelodeon). Then from 14 July - the Australian premiere of Series 2. A month
of Sarah Jane in Australia.
Still waiting for an airdate for K9. Guess it's going to be a while.

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 154 - Interview with Charlie Ross of Big Finish fame. Also,
feedback. And, Ken Deep tries to do a review of an audio adaptation of Power Of
The Daleks on Audible, but time is short.
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.
Current episode:
#146 - "Better Aim Than Graham" - News about the upcoming Torchwood episodes
gives the team a sense of hope about that Doctor Who spinoff not heard since
2006. They actually discuss Torchwood for a while. Appropriately, this happens
on the episode where they review "The Empty Child", the 2005 Doctor Who episode
that introduced John Barrowman as Captain Jack Harkness, who goes on to be the
lead on Torchwood. And to reiterate their warning to SPACE, the print of The
Empty Child shown on CBC, SciFi, BBC America, and PBS stations is full length -
however, a vital scene is missing its dialogue. The scene is there, but without
the dialogue nothing actually happens, and the dialogue is needed for the ending
to make sense in The Doctor Dances. SPACE is in an excellent place to insist
that the print get replaced by a correct one like the one on the DVDs.
Coming Soon:
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:
#125 - Christopher Eccleston, part 1 of 2. September 2003 - Doctor Who's return
is announced. March 2004 - Christopher Eccleston is announced as the new Doctor,
breaking all expectations. March 2005 - Eccleston's episodes premiere, and the
world is electrified. The Whocast team look at Eccleston's impact on Doctor Who.
This week - hello. Next week - goodbye? If you're a fan of Eccleston, then good
news - so are they.

UK based podcast looking at the latest in Doctor Who, Torchwood, or Sarah Jane
Adventures. New episodes ever 2 weeks or so.

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 - 94. Superheroes Run Amok!
Upcoming episodes (titles and topics subject to change):
Sunday 2PM EDT/11AM PDT/7PM BST - 96. The Man Behind The Curtain (I'm not that
man - I'll be driving and missing this show)
5 July 2PM EDT/11AM PDT/7PM BST - 97. TV Series Finales
and on Sunday 26 July - the real 100th episode. How does a show like this
celebrate its 100th episode? We'll find out. Coming soon - Cultdom!
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:
#32 - Everything's So Political. Chip discusses politics and Doctor Who.
Personally, I'd imagine the Doctor would be more interested in UK politics than
US politics - he spends so much more time in the UK than over here.
Coming Soon:
#33 - Some kind of regular episode. An episode due to go out yesterday did not
get made, in case it gets mentioned in this one.
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 - they are about to publish a second Mr. Dalek story that I
wrote for them.)
Current:
Episode 48 - "Our Segments Overrunneth" - Without Jean - Andy, Adam, Keith, and
Fake Keith find that the show runs rather long, and the typically very long
feedback section near the end of the show got shortened to less than a minute of
headlines. They watched "The Invasion", the famous Patrick Troughton story that
now has 2 animated episodes that ought to be shown on TV - come on,
broadcasters! Speaking of animated, David Tennant's got another one coming. Ads
for other shows, Primeval's autopsy, the Dalek invasion of a flower shop, actors
guest starring on shows, and other stuff.
Expected to record soon - Episode 49. "The Staggering Stories Code" - somebody
has gone back in time and inserted 3 extra Staggering Stories cast members in
the pilot episode from 2007, back before they joined the show. Can the Vatican
Council of Staggering Stories keep this knowledge secret - probably not, you're
already reading this entry. Unless they're after you too ...
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. Flashing Blade wants to be known as the podcast that
would like a nice cup of tea. But what kind of tea? Earl Grey? Mandarin Orange?
Herbal? Raspberry? Possible some nice ice tea? The tabloids circle for the
answer - well, we wish they did, as it would make more interesting tabloids.
Current episode - 3. Jo! and the Tony look at Big Finish's audio "The Beast Of
Orlok". Also, the Peter Davison story "Earthshock". The cult of THE COLIN BAKER
got irritated with Jo!, leading Tony to drastic measures. They even put up a
link to their Facebook page - but Facebook doesn't like to let non-members see
the pages, so meh there.
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 - 17 (audio episode). Doctor Who Mastermind, Series 1, Episode
1. Extended episode (nearly 12 minutes long). Luke starts a competition based on
the popular UK quiz show Mastermind. First up - Tony Gallichan. Coming in late
July (Luke's on vacation till then) - more of these installments. Try to guess
which people were crazy enough to volunteer.
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 26/27. Episode 37. Summer movie overview, this week's
major celebrity passings, plus the DVDs of Battlefield (classic Who) and The
Satan Pit (new Who) are discussed. The chat must have gotten active - the show
runs 3 hours, 1 minute, and 38 seconds. I wonder which DVD caused more debate -
my money's on Battlefield.
The Tennantcast http://tennantcast.com
Kelsey, Kari, and friends get together to dish on the latest David Tennant news.
6 - All Tennant Fans Are Friends. The Tennantcast team send a thank you to all
the places they can find where David Tennant gets discussed. For podcast
purposes, they used This Week In Doctor Who to help identify most of the shows.
Thanks. Meanwhile, their secret alliance with Radio Free Skaro becomes less and
less secret.
Keeping an eye out - still no sign of the next episode. Hmm.
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 - 15 - The Celestial Toymaker and The Gunfighters. Our hosts
reach the two stories where Dodo was actually given plotlines. Good for Dodo.
Was it good for the stories?
****Alas, poor Whovian Quest
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?
The Whovian Quest website is offline, and no new episodes have arrived in
months. I have enjoyed the show, and really wanted to hear it get through the
series. Does anybody know if Jonathan is continuing? I'm serious, guys.
Hoo On Who http://hooonwho.com
Fan reviews of recent Doctor Who DVDs by David Hooie, frequently with a guest
co-host.

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 - June 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 27, 2009 - Vol 1, No 26
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 at 9PM Eastern (two repeats on 26 July). BBC America's premiere of new
to US Who is The Next Doctor - today Saturday 27 June (9PM, Midnight, 3AM
Eastern - 75 minute time slot). Hopefully lots of us with BBC America will tune
in tonight to one of the 3 showings. I'd love to see Doctor Who do better on BBC
America in the ratings than it did on SciFi. BBC America is giving an extended
time slot - a good return on the investment makes the point that they should do
this for more (ideally ALL) of their shows that need extra time to air complete.
Note - BBC America has not updated their On Demand information in weeks, so we
do not know if The Next Doctor will be available to digital cable subscribers
with BBC America On Demand. It gets a DVD release in September. SPACE is now
putting Torchwood episodes online (Canada only) for a week and did have The Next
Doctor up in March, so presumably SPACE will have Planet Of The Dead online in
late July as well.
CANADA - Ztele http://www.ztele.com will air Journey's End in a 60 minute time
slot starting Tuesday 7 July. Since the episode was a bit over 63 minutes long,
this will mean significant editing. Ztele aired Voyage Of The Damned (72 minute
episode) in a 90 minute slot, so it is possible that they were unaware that a
complete version of Journey's End was available. Somebody get ahold of BBC
Worldwide Canada so they can alert Ztele to this fact and find out if Ztele
wants to swap out for the better one. Ztele is a French language station.
CANADA - CBC TV is not through with Doctor Who just yet. CBC repeats Series 4
(the 2008 episodes) late Sunday evenings. The official start time seems to be
11PM or Midnight depending on the week (11:30PM or 12:30AM Newfoundland). Some
Pacific Time Zone stations are starting Doctor Who 1/2 hour later, and it does
not seem to be consistent.
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
KUED 7 Salt Lake City, UT (currently in first run)
OETA Oklahoma
KLRU 18 Austin, TX (currently in first run)
Alaska Public TV
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.
And now, the listings:

to use one of the links at the top of the column (the Yahoo Group, the RSS feed
for the Yahoo Group, the Gallifreyan Embassy web mirror). The rec.arts.drwho and

various places that pick up the RSS feed around the internet. The Doctor Who
News Page http://www.doctorwhonews.com is migrating and regenerating - This Week
will still be there in some form, either as a link to the RSS feed or something
else. But if you use the gallifreyone.com link, you need to be ready to change -
soon. I will continue to supply the column there till the change. But the change
could occur at any time.
This Week In Doctor Who has been proud to be associated with Outpost Gallifrey
in one form or another since July 1998 when this column began. Thanks for all
the glorious years.
With various technical issues, a special on Radio 4 escaped attention. Not
enough time to put it in the body of the column, but BBC Radio 4
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4 had a documentary on the TARGET novelizations. For
decades, nearly every Doctor Who TV story was turned into a book. Often the
books were easier to find than the TV stories. This is the story of those books,
one of the most successful publishing lines around, yet for some reason not
allowed to be reprinted. Available on Radio 4's listen again service until
sometime Tuesday 30 June.
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 .

BBC America Torchwood: Children Of Earth Monday 20 July through Friday July 24 9PM to 10:15PM Eastern (75 minute premiere slots) 8PM to 9PM Eastern (60 minute repeats the following night)
BBC America has issued a new press release about Torchwood: Children Of Earth. Everything previously known about BBC America's showing still applies. But now we know that the premieres (at least the 9PM Eastern/6PM Pacific showing) will be 75 minutes long each. Given the 60 minute length of the episodes pre-commercials, the 75 minute slot will allow BBC America to air the episodes uncut, bar any language, sex, and nudity issues that might breach BBC America standards.
The repeats on the following weeknights start at 8PM Eastern (5PM Pacific), leaving only 60 minutes, so with 14 to 15 minutes of commercials to the hour they will likely be heavily edited. No information on the weekend or late night showings.
If you were among the people who told BBC America that they should give the Torchwood episodes extended time slots - THANK YOU! To BBC America - THANK YOU!
Now, here's the tricky bit. BBC America is altering their time slot (even delaying their vaunted newscast that gets shown worldwide on BBC World News). Now the Torchwood audience has to turn up and watch the show on BBC America (even if they watch it elsewhere first). Friends have to be told. This needs to be a big success, so that BBC America learns the value of airing shows uncut. We have said that we are comfortable with extended slots and odd times - do we mean it? Do we deserve to see full length episodes of shows?
For now, I'm glad that BBC America is treating the audience well. It gives me a good feeling about Doctor Who - Planet Of The Dead (which we do not know the length of the timeslot for yet). Please spread this news around, whether using this announcement or rewording it your own way.
Benjamin Elliott This Week In Doctor Who/Torchwood This Week
Torchwood This Week
June 19/20, 2009 - Volume 3, Number 25
The weekly guide to Torchwood transmissions.
by Benjamin F. Elliott
http://tv.groups.yahoo.com/group/torchwoodhttp://tv.groups.yahoo.com/group/thisweekindoctorwho
Well, we're a day early, so apologies if there are further developments before
the regular publication time.
We have a premiere week for Torchwood Series 3 - Children Of Earth. The episodes
will air the week of 4 July to 10 July. They will air over 5 consecutive days,
so for scheduling purposes the expectation is that the episodes will air either
5 July to 9 July or 6 July to 10 July. No official broadcast time yet, though
9PM BST is the assumption. BBC HD would simulcast programming like this.
Before this series airs, there are 3 new Torchwood radio plays on BBC Radio 4.
1, 2, and 3 July at 2:15PM BST each day. They can be heard around the world and
will stay online for a week after broadcast.
We do not have an Australian or Canadian airdate yet. SPACE (Canada) had
schedules up through the 19th of July, with no sign of Torchwood Series 3. SPACE
does start providing episodes online (for people in Canada) starting this
Tuesday with Everything Changes.
The UK start date is approximately 2 weeks before BBC America's start date of 20
July, dashing hopes of a simultaneous broadcast. BBC America is doing more and
more advertising for Children Of Earth. All 26 episodes of Torchwood Series 1
and 2 will air on 18 and 19 July. The Children Of Earth 5 parter will repeat on
Sunday 26 July as a marathon. We do not know yet if BBC America will air the
full episodes in extended slots or edit them to the standard broadcast time. Due
to BBC America's broadcasting standards, nudity, some sex, and some (but not
all) profanities will be cut even in a full length broadcast. The uncut DVDs and
Blu-Rays of this series hit US store shelves on Tuesday 28 July, 1 day after the
UK DVD and Blu-Ray releases. At the current time we do not know which companies
will offer BBC America HD for their premiere week (including Torchwood).

3 Brand new Torchwood Plays in the Afternoon Play slot starring the regular cast
and set before the Children Of Earth episodes. All episodes 45 minutes long.
BBC One http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbconehttp://www.radiotimes.com
World premiere broadcaster of Series 3 (Children Of Earth)! 5 episodes in a 5
night strip.
At press time, BBC One was scheduled to air Torchwood during the week of 4 to 10
July. 5 nights in a row, presumably at 9PM BST. It remained to be seen if the
episodes would air from Sunday 5 July to Thursday 9 July or Monday 6 July to
Friday 10 July.
BBC HD http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbchdhttp://www.radiotimes.com
Expected to simulcast the new Torchwood episodes with BBC One. Unknown if they
will repeat the episodes later.
BBC Three http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcthreehttp://www.radiotimes.com
BBC Three is the likely home for repeats of the new 5 episodes. As the final
schedule is not firmed up yet, we do not know if BBC Three will be involved.
MILITARY:
BFBS http://bfbs-tv.com
While it is too far out to see BFBS' schedule for the week of 4 to 10 July at
press time, they usually air mainline BBC One shows the day of or the day after
first broadcast for the benefit of military outside the UK. Torchwood would
likely air on BFBS One, BFBS Two, or both, along with BFBS Navy and BFBS One Day
Later. We should have a much clearer view next week.

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 153 - Lots of news and feedback. James was back. This Week In
Doctor Who got a mention, as the column now appears on the Gallifreyan Embassy
site among other places.
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.
Current episode:
#145 - "The Lament Of Steven" - Steven Schapansky has always thought of himself
as the calm member of the Radio Free Skaro insane asylum. Then the gang did a
commentary on the episode Father's Day. And well - everything changed ....
Coming Soon:
#146 - "Insert Jokey Title Here" - Due to little editing time I'm not going to
speculate on what the RFS team should call the episode. Since they are looking
at The Empty Child, it might be interesting if one of them watches the CBC print
while one watches the DVD print. Afterwards get on the phone with SPACE, the CBC
print was used by SciFi, BBC America, and the PBS syndication deal. If SPACE
doesn't know to insist on a fixed version, no doubt they will get stuck with it
too.
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:
#124 - The Whocast team review some things. First - these hosts, like Michael of
Tin Dog Podcast, had bad experiences with Delta And The Bannermen in the past.
As the DVD release comes, they watch to give a review. Er, their reaction is
somewhat different to Michael's. Meanwhile, the Big Finish Companion Chronicle
The Mahagony Murders grabs their interest.
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.

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 - 94. Superheroes Run Amok!
Upcoming episodes (titles and topics subject to change):
Sunday 2PM EDT/11AM PDT/7PM BST - 95. Bring A Book
28 June 2PM EDT/11AM PDT/7PM BST - 96. The Man Behind The Curtain
and on Sunday 26 July - the real 100th episode. How does a show like this
celebrate its 100th episode? We'll find out.
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:
#30 - Is It Time For A Religious Companion? In the first of Chip's 3 part series
of controversial topics, Chip looks at religion and Doctor Who companions.
Personally (as a Presbyterian), I think Steven Taylor was a Protestant, either
Anglican or Methodist.
#31 - The Polyamorous Doctor. Love and the Doctor. In the second of Chip's 3
part series of controversial topics - could the answer to the Doctor's love
issues be that he simply loves multiple people romantically at the same time?
Future - #32 will have something to do with politics, as the 3 controversial
topics were religion, sex, and politics.
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" -
well, whatever title the episode has, it was recorded days ago and should go out
by Monday.
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. Flashing Blade wants to be known as the podcast that
would like a nice cup of tea.
Current episode - 2. Jo! and the Tony begin a look at Big Finish with the 8th
Doctor audio "Hothouse". A look at classic Tom Baker story "City Of Death" also
ensues. Debate over Ashes To Ashes Series 2. And Planet Of The Dead - have we
finally found reviewers who like it? Er, no.
The Minute Doctor Who Podcast

html
Video (sometimes just audio) podcast looking at Doctor Who projects. Episodes
are usually under 5 minutes long.
Current episode - 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.
5 - The Rickcast. A somewhat shorter episode, as talk on David Tennant melds
into a talk on Alan Rickman. Cake and giddiness ensue. Note - on iTunes this was
listed as episode 4. Episode 4 was also listed as episode 4.
Keeping an eye out - still no sign of the next episode. Hmm.
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 - 15 - The Celestial Toymaker and The Gunfighters. Our hosts
reach the two stories where Dodo was actually given plotlines. Good for Dodo.
Was it good for the stories?
****Alas, poor Whovian Quest
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?
The Whovian Quest website is offline, and no new episodes have arrived in
months. I have enjoyed the show, and really wanted to hear it get through the
series. Does anybody know if Jonathan is continuing?
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.
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.

This Week In Doctor Who Western Hemisphere
June 20, 2009 - Vol 1, No 25
The Guide to North and South American Doctor Who TV Listings
by Benjamin F. Elliott
We're a day early, so pardon any mess.
LATIN AMERICA - People + Arts - at the end of the current Doctor Who run, you're
substiting Extreme Makeover: Home Edition in its place? Seriously? Torchwood or
Sarah Jane Adventures weren't available? Primeval? Lost? Charlie Jade? Or
anything else? Just seems like a very uninspired choice to take the slot.
CANADA - CBC TV is not through with Doctor Who just yet. CBC repeats Series 4
(the 2008 episodes) Sundays at 11PM all time zones (11:30PM Newfoundland)
starting this Sunday the 21st. The run begins with Partners In Crime. Voyage Of
The Damned is skipped again. CBC could surprise us, but it looks more and more
likely that Voyage will have its Canadian English Language premiere on SPACE. We
do not know if Doctor Who is getting this run on the broadcast channel (which
just about everybody in Canada should be able to see, along with many Americans
in border regions) due to Series 4's popularity, because CBC needed emergency
filler, or if the repeat rights would not last long enough to show the episodes
again on CBC Bold. Assume this is the final hurrah for Doctor Who on free to air
TV in Canada (unless SPACE's owners repeat episodes on broadcast stations they
own - like they did with Battlestar Galactica in the past).
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 - WHRO http://www.whro.org is not dropping Doctor Who or their British TV
night at the end of the month. Their July schedule now shows British programming
every Saturday, a change from what I previously saw. WHRO is airing Tom Baker
episodes, so there will still be 2 stations airing classic Doctor Who on Earth
(KBTC 28 Tacoma airs Peter Davison episodes).
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 is not dropping
Tom Baker - an updated schedule shows their British Saturday night continue.

Early edition due to my travel plans. I have tried to make it as accurate as
possible, but there was less time to check.
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=twidw - 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. Stay tuned.
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 its end.
UK - BBC HD http://www.bbc.co.uk/hd has special repeats of Doctor Who at the
Proms (5:15PM) and Planet Of The Dead (8:30PM) this Saturday 20 June. Only
people with BBC HD will get these broadcasts. BBC HD likes to do extra repeats
to fill schedule holes - now that Doctor Who has an HD episode, it can take
advantage of this.
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

Torchwood This Week
June 13, 2009 - Volume 3, Number 24
The weekly guide to Torchwood transmissions.
by Benjamin F. Elliott
http://tv.groups.yahoo.com/group/torchwoodhttp://tv.groups.yahoo.com/group/thisweekindoctorwho
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.

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

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.

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 3
- Shows 4 to 1.
Upcoming episodes:
Sunday 2PM EDT/11AM PDT/7PM BST - 94. Superheroes Run Amok!

28 June 2PM EDT/11AM PDT/7PM BST - 96. The Man Behind The Curtain
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.

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

the special "Inside The Hub" airs Monday at 8PM, 11PM, and 1AM Eastern. New

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

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

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.
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). 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

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

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

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
tin) (should really be called Three Minute Time Lord on this episode)
Coming Soon:
Sunday - special 20 minute version of Two Minute Time Lord planned, with the
uncut interview with the people behind the webcomic
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?

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

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.

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 - 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.

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.

somebody else's) belongs in this section, e-mail me.

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.

international delays.
-Podshock Episode 149. News, reports from the Fab Cafe meetup, a feature on DVD
Easter Eggs, and Feedback.
-Podshock Episode 150. A message from Starship Sofa. Interview with Eliza

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.

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
To CIA. A tribute to the world of Douglas Adams.

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.

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).
