How comes Watch is not showing Tooth and Claw ?
They showed New Earth yesterday and today's its School Reunion .

I don't know why but they always skip it - same with the Impossible Planet and the Satan Pit - and then show it late at night at a later date.

Perhaps but they seem to show Dalek for example in that timeslot just fine. The torture scenes might be edited though but of that I'm not sure.

I would imagine so but it depends on the content I suppose. I mean Friends is a 12 and that's virtually on all the time even if there are sometimes minor cuts involved.

Also, I don't think BBC Three skip over the episodes when it comes to repeating either.

I wish they'd just permanently 'forget' to show The Idiot's Lantern....the worst episode of Doctor Who ever made.

Watch seem to constantly repeat Series 2 the most.

I know! So frustrating! They are two of the best stories of Nu-Who, to date.

If we didn't have The Impossible Planet two parter, then we wouldn't have have Planet of the Ood, or The Ood featuring in the End of Time. Nephew wouldn't have been in The Doctors Wife, either.

Impossible Planet & Satan Pit are both PG rated, meaning it'd be surprising if it was for
suitability reasons.

The bbfc 12 rated episodes are- The Unquiet Dead, Dalek, Tooth and Claw, Planet of the Ood, The Doctor's Daughter, Silence in the Library, The Waters of Mars, The God Complex and The Angels Take Manhattan.

Well, I never knew that. I'm surprised to see The Doctor's Daughter included in that list; I mean, the script was a bit scary, but....

Don't, um, watch 'Watch', but maybe they have their own policy? Can only think that if they do, the Werewolf transformation scenes and the depiction of The Beast in TIP/TSP are considered too much? Don't agree, but that's all I can think of....

Much debate over the years as to why TDD is a 12, most believe the bit where the Doctor points a gun at the baddies head was the reason.
