Didn't forget it was on but forgot to to record it. Good excuse to Avoid watching the rest of the run. Most of my viewings of sky channels such as sky1,gold,watch are ruined by the constant longer than ITV/c4/5 adverts which ruin it for me. No big loss.

I watched the Aztecs. I have the DVD but never got around to watching it again when I got the SE (which I only got to get Galaxy 4 episode 3).

I've mentioned this before but I was watching Doctor Who Explained this evening and noticed again that Colin Baker seems to be shaking slightly and seemingly uncontrollably, like a Parkinson's sufferer! Is he unwell?

That's because it shares its transponder with BBC Parliament the same as BBC3 shares with CBeebies.
Cbeebies & BBC FOUR on another one. Parliament on it's own. |

That'll be the same Watch that is owned by UKTV, that is 50% owned by BBC Worldwide, which is 100% owned by the BBC!

To the layman Watch has absolutely nothing to do with the BBC. This type of programming celebration should be on BBC4, there's simply no excuse - it's not like it shows anything before 7pm

I think the BBC missed an oportinuty of running some DR Who classics during the new afternoon lineup on BBC Two - Ie no Cagney and Lacey and instead put up an episode or two of DR who.
Or at the very least show one full story a week, say Sunday afternoon with a documentary or two leading up to the anniversary. Shame as not only is it great cross promotion but they could have hijacked the channel turning it into BBC Who instead. Also would have loved to see a documentary on the recovery of missing episodes leading up to the 50th. Especially as the recovery is a large part of the history of the show itself and has an interest and place in every fans heart. |

ive known since the late Nineties back when it was UK Gold which at that time was a jointly owned channel with BBC Worldwide and Thames(Then it split into Gold and Watch about 5 years back) and im not exactly involved in the Satellite TV Business
Geez, I can't believe how many people don't think this type of celebration should be on the Beeb ![]()

But I think a lot of us fans are slightly disillusioned about the scale with which they can (and should) realistically do that. |

Can't see that anyone answered your question: no, they are not the remastered versions being shown. It's amazing to see how much work was done to clean them up to the standard that we are now used to.

Yes because the BBC has only announced a range of specially commissioned content on BBC1, BBC2, BBC3, BBC4, CBBC, Radio 1 and Radio 2 to mark the shows anniversary. Hardly bothering at all are they? I mean so many shows in the history of television have had higher profile celebrations.

Just out of interest, what are Radio 1 doing? I've not seen anything about that.
Quote:
Music is a key part of Doctor Who, from the famous theme tune to soaring melodies, but the show has also inspired a whole new phenomenon – Time Lord Rock (TROCK). Radio 1 will look at this genre of music inspired by the Doctor and his journeys through space and time with a 60-minute documentary.
Looking that up made me realise I left Radio 4 Extra off my initial post.
