DSRPG Season 36 Schedule Compiler
It's that time of year again where a new season is upon us and you get the chance to compile a schedule for the DSRPG. All you'd need to do is look at the Radio Times website and pick which shows you'd like to predict that week. I may suggestions if I feel a show may have been missed but ultimately it's up to you to choose what you want so why not have a go? Just post on the thread which week you'd like to compile a schedule for - it's first come first serve.

Week One (Mon 26th September - Sun 2nd October): Green Steel
Week Two (Mon 3rd October - Sun 9th October): Fudd
Week Three (Mon 10th October - Sun 16th October): Fudd
Week Four (Mon 17th October - Sun 23rd October): dullagj2
Week Five (Mon 24th October - Sun 30th October): thengp12
Week Six (Mon 31st October - Sun 6th November): RickLopez
