Excellent. I also see that they are screening the 2nd series of Green Wing. If you hav'nt seen this show then do yourself a favour, it is the best show on TV (besides Doctor Who of course  ). |

| Thanks for the recommendation of the Green Wing but I wait when UKTV shows it from season 1 as I like to see things from the beginning. |

Outpost Gallifrey finally reports about it on its News Page:
"UKTV Australia has added the following to their FAQ page: "Are there any plans to screen Doctor Who? Yes, UKTV will be screening the new series of Doctor Who in October this year." We're assuming for now that they mean the 13 Christopher Eccleston episodes from 2005. This would be the second showing of the episodes in Australia (well, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, maybe more - UKTV likes multiple airings). To date they have aired one time on ABC TV." |

that will be good cause you'll be able to see it '2-X,
cause of the 2-hour delay Channel...
Because there's something different (Besides having the Dvd's of it)
about seeing it broadcasted!. |

which featured Michelle Gomez!
'Also,

Both worthy shows. The Mighty Boosh is without a doubt the strangest UK comedy I've seen in a long time ... |

| Got the Optus guide for October in the mail today and found out when the it will start. It will start on Sunday October 1 at 8:30pm and finishes at 10pm, presumably Rose & End of the World being shown back to back. It will then be repeated on Saturday October 7 7pm. From Sunday October 8 single episodes will be shown which is then repeated in the following Saturdays at 6:30pm. |

| Last night during a break of The Professionals, saw the UKTV ad of the series. With the taglines, "An old friend gets a new face" and "Invasion Begins" the ad featured clips from the first six episodes. It was pretty well done. |

Saw the UKTV debut of the series last night with Rose & End of the World being shown back to back and to my surprise it was given an M rating. Isn't this suppose to be a family show? However that was not the only surprise as UKTV did not show all of it. This happened when Rose ran into the TARDIS at the end of "Rose" and then there was a break but when it came back on it was with the shot of Platform One.
This meant that the following was missing from the transmission:
- Next Time trailer for The End of The World.
- End credits for Rose.
- Teaser sequence for The End of The World.
- Title sequence for The End of The World.
Also missing was the producer and director's credit for The End of The World.
Quite unfortunate for people seeing these episodes for the first time. |

They didn't cut it on the repeat!

They did once on there a Skit of the 9th-doctor... And as well
as 'John Culshaw' as the 4th-doctor |

| Found out from the Optus guide that UKTV will have a 2005 season marathon on New Year's Eve from 12pm to 10:30pm. What a nice way to spend the end of the year. |

| Just letting people know that the Christmas Invasion and Series 2 will be shown in UKTV this year as I found out from an ad after Father Ted last night. The ad which was about new shows coming this year also included Hustle which will make its UKTV debut and features Love & Monsters guest star Marc Warren. Incidentally I recently been seeing Warren in State of Play on the ABC. |

| Does this mean ABC loses it's rights to repeat any of the new Series? |

I have found out from Optus Magazine that there will be a Doctor Who marathon for the 2005 and 2006 seasons on the Queen's Birthday weekend.
The 2005 season starts at midday on Saturday June 9 & the 2005 Christmas special The Christmas Invasion followed by the 2006 season starts at the same time on the following day Sunday June 10.
As well as showing the episodes of the series, UKTV is also showing the cutdown 15 minute versions of Doctor Who Confidential. Each Confidential episode will be shown following from its corresponding Doctor Who episode.
The marathon for The Christmas Invasion & the 2006 season marks the first time these episodes would have been shown on UKTV. The screening of the Cutdown versions of Doctor Who Confidential will mark the first time ever that Doctor Who Confidential has ever been shown on Australian television. |
