Doctor Who on BBC7:
Check out BBC7's Listen Again page to hear the 8th Doctor audios from Big Finish. Current epsiodes are available for one week after it originally airs.
This week:
Sunday, October 15th: Swords of Orion, part 4

Previous:
Sunday, October 8th: Swords of Orion, part 3
Sunday, October 1st: Swords of Orion, part 2
Sunday, September 24th: Swords of Orion, part 1

The last part of Swords of Orion airs this coming Sunday. Another 8th Doctor story will start the following Sunday. I don't remember the order they were going to air, but it would be cool if they did Invaders from Mars, with Halloween coming and all. ;)

We've all heard the sad news-Outpost Gallifrey's news section is coming to an end. The forums and Gallifrey One's convention will still continue, and as Daniel pointed out-there is still alot of good information for both the classic series and the news series on the site. Michael, over at the Torchwood Institute also mentioned that it was a great source for international Doctor Who news-as most sites focus on just one country. It will be missed!

The BBC has finally lauched it's Torchwood site. It looks to be pretty cool-unfortunately, it seems several features will only be available to the UK. Still, I think there will be alot of other information we can access about the series on the site(from what I can tell, we won't be able to access any special vidoes). The episode guide is scheduled to be updated on the 19th of October-other sections on the 22nd.

Yes! Torchwood is scheduled to hit BBC airwaves a week from Sunday! It looks like it's going to be really good-and I hope someone on this side of the pond picks it up. :) Trailers have been circulating on YouTube-I think there have been 3 trailers (not including the teaser), but I've only been able to find 2:
Trailer 1
Trailer 2

TAFN-it's been a crazy week for me at home and here at work (10th anniversary library celebration-let me tell you-6 adults trying to untangle tons of ballons is a site to behold. LOL!)

Happy Who watching!
Oh, and because it's on tonight-you know I gotta say it: Yay, Sarah Jane!! ;)
