Dates for Class
Do we have dates as of yet for the Doctor Who spin-off Class' episodes to air? I can't seen to find any.
It is August. In order to show the episodes one a week before the end of the year (without running right up to The Christmas Special), they will need to start airing them in September or October. I would have expected dates to be set long before now. Why has no announcement been made? Do they usually wait until this close before the start of a new show in order to advertise/announce dates? |

With it being on BBC three (or II! or whatever...) maybe they will make the whole series available at once. No "transmission" dates as such.

Three novels are due out on October 27th, so I'd expect it to start around the middle or end of September.

If it is only on bbc3 then it will completely pass me by. The bbc need to do this property and put in on bbc1 or it will turn out to be one big white elephant.

At one time i'd have thought september - the BBC liked putting school based dramas on to coincide with the start of term but that seems a bit unlikely now

When you consider that BBC3 was showing stuff like "Snog Marry Avoid", I think they made the right choice. It's not axed anyway, it's just moved online. |

The whole intention of the show is to be the flagship that leads BBC3 online. The audience it's aimed at (the 16-30 demographic) do almost all their watching online these days anyway. The BBC are not just pushing this out willy nilly, they know what they want it to achieve. Besides which, they've said that it will air on BBC1 after BBC3 in any case.

![]() Two students see The Doctor coming around the corner. One, having heard of the Doctor's reputation for bringing death in his wake, say's 'oh, no'. 'What?' says the other. 'Tonight we might die' the first replies. ![]() P.s As for the second title, that instantly smacks of trying to hard to be trendy, and if it is anything to go by, suggests that the show as a whole, as I had expected, may also be like that (corny and embarrassing). |

Patrick Ness won't let us down. The guy is brilliant! and never one to shy away from anything hard-hitting, which is always a bonus.
Capaldi in the first episode!! The first time he'll have been onscreen in 10 months! o.o |

The most vastly underrated factor in this entire endeavor since the the moment Class was announced.
The proof will be in the content. You yourself could be a fan of some of his other works and find yourself hating it for example. Reputation doesn't always guarantee a hit. |

I must admit that I hadn't heard about this until recently.
So far, my first impression is "the Sarah Jane Adventures" but without Sarah Jane. Time will tell. |
