The Grandview Theatre will be showing "The Wedding of River Song" starting at 9pm! Gotta love Doctor Who on the big screen! :)

As always, this is a free, family event, so bring the kids and come celebrate the end of Steven Moffat's second year at the helm of our favorite (oops, I should say *favourite* ;) ) program! Can't wait to see where he takes the show next!

Grandview Theatre update on Torchwood

Well, unfortunately, it looks like the Grandview Theatre will not be pursuing Torchwood this season. :(

Cheer up, though-Torchwood is returning to our screens TONIGHT! The first episode of Torchwood: Miracle Day starts at 10 pm EDT on Starz, and no, you are not imagining things-Torchwood is indeed airing 6 days earlier in the US than in the UK. The BBC just released this statement regarding the recent complaints from UK fans. After reading the statement, I have to admit I wondered if that was the reasoning.

Torchwood! Tonight! 10 pm on Starz!!!! BE THERE! (if you can-silly premium channels...)

Ohio WHO podcast!

Listen to Doctor Who podcasts? Ever want to be a part of one yourself? Here's your chance!!

John, from our sister group The Ohio Type 40 up in Cleveland, is looking to start an all-Ohio Doctor Who podcast! So far John and Chris will be heading the Ohio Type 40 contingent, with contributions from Jen from Friends of the Time Lord down in Cincinnati, but we need YOU!!! :)

We will be doing current events in both the world of Who and in our respective groups. In addition we will do an episode review of the most recent episodes. When there is no new Who, we will look at classic series episodes as well as talk to members from the three groups via skype.

Interested? Have any questions? Please contact John by email at mrcm4tbl[at]yahoo[dot]com.

We hope you will join us in this exciting new chapter of Ohio Doctor Who fandom!!
