...In fact, I've just finished watching the first episode. I bumped into my neighbour down the road this morning, she'd pre-ordered it on Amazon but she won't get it 'til the end of the week. A few people I know were surprised I hadn't just downloaded it like they had. I told them plainly: the more actual copies of this sell on DVD, the more likely that BBC will realize they do indeed have a large international audience, and keep on making more Doctor Who episodes hopefully until I'm old and very grey.

Anybody else planning on getting it? I know there's some Americans champing at the bit, what with the decision to release the DVD there on July 4.

It's good.

BBC america should have aired it though, instead of that Location, Location, Location crap.

I mean, what do british people pay the license fee for, if everyone else can't get spill-over.

I saw the first season last year on CBC. Great show (terrible acting though). Anyone know the reason why the second season hasn't appeared? Did is get cancled?

No. Changed the lead. It is set for release soon I think, I don't really pay attention to the show. Especially with that fuckwit as a leading lady.

It's still in production. I think it'll come back in the spring.

I liked the 'fuckwit', thanks. I bet she looks better in her track pants than you would. And make for better company fighting Daleks.

Debates over Ms. Pipers acting ability or lack thereof pale into insignificance in the light of the news that Elizabeth Sladen is back (briefly) in season 28. Yay!
