Summertime Who watching...and links!
Series 3/Season 29 in the U.S.A.
Fridays, 9:00pm (EDT) on the SciFi Channel
Current episode:
3. Gridlock
Previous episodes:
2. The Shakespeare Code
1. Smith and Jones
The Runaway Bride
Series 3/Season 29 in the U.K.
The third series has ended it's run on BBC One-but will return for the 2007 Christmas Special, Voyage of the Damned, in December.
Don't forget to check out SciFi's Doctor Who quizzes-a new quiz each week after the current episode airs. Last week's quiz was about the Doctor. :)
Here's a few links for you to enjoy:
from the SciFi Wire:
Torchwood secrets to be releaved (spoilers for Torchwood's second series and the end of series 3 of Doctor Who)
Who writer addresses rumors (spoilers for the end of series 3)
Not Who related, but rather, British-scifi related:
Ashes Flashes Back to '80s It's about Ashes to Ashes, the spinoff to Life on Mars. Since I've only managed to see a couple of episodes of Life on Mars so far, I'm not sure how spoilery this link will be to people.
from the SyFy Portal:
Doctor Who, Torchwood not enough for Wales Still not enough Welsh representation in the BBC lineup.
from Outpost Gallifrey:
Rare pictures resurface from classic Who!!!
Other spin-off news:
According to Sarah-Jane.tv, SJA has wrapped up it's filming, and will probably air sometime this autumn. Also indicating an autumn start, a BBC press release talks about a rebranded CBBC channel, with the Sarah Jane Adventures being listed as one of it's new shows for the fall. (Yay, Sarah Jane!) ;)
Torchwood's first season will begin airing here in the US on BBC America on September 8th at 9pm ET.

Doctor Who on the radio:
Moths Ate My Dr Who Scarf
from BBC 7:
This BBC 7 new commission by Toby Hadoke is a fantastic autobiographical piece, with universal appeal. It's told along the timeline of Doctor Who history, using smart comedic observations and excerpts from his teenage diaries. These include how he coped with being bullied, why he never got the girl, and later how being such a fan helped to actually get the girl, and end up with two children that are now the envy of every kid in the playground, all thanks to a geeky obsession. This is a two-part non audience version of Toby's successful 2006 Edinburgh show.
Friday at 5.30pm and 6am
Be sure to check it out in their Listen again section. The program will be available for one week after it airs.
Check out the weekly Doctor Who quizzes at Scifi.com!!
I took the first quiz, and got a perfect score. My rank is TimeLord. LOL.
A new quiz every week after each new episode!!!
Doctor Who at the SyFy Genre Awards Although this particular article focuses on Battlestar Galactica's nominations, I think it's worth the mention that Doctor Who is quite well represented too!! (see the end of the article for the complete list of nominations).
Also from the SyFy Portal: I was watching their little news alert ticker and this interesting tidbit caught my eye: the third series (season 29) episode, Gridlock is the 727th television episode of the Who Universe-this is one up from the Star Trek Universe, at 726. Woo!
from Outpost Gallifrey
Peter Tuddenham, has died at the age of 88 after a brief illness.
Peter's vocal talents could be heard in the Classic Who stories, the Ark in Space, the Masque of Mandragora and Time and the Rani.
Also included in this particular link-more information about the Jetix K-9 Adventures series and first glimpses of the Christmas special, Voyage of the Damned (so you may not want to scroll down too far, just in case their are spoilers. ;) )
Speaking of spoilers, I feel this last batch of links from the BBC could be considered major spoilers for the casting of the 2007 Christmas Special, series 4, and series 2 of Torchwood-you've been warned!!! ;)
