So just because you see it the same time as the UK, and I queried why it mattered, you felt the need to tell us it's a good episode and post a trailer? Nice one, thanks for that. Unsubscribe.

Re: Dr Who
OH wtched it on his Ipad, but with his earplugs in so I couldn't see or hear it. As DD was revising for exams this week, we are waiting until it comes on TV to watch it. Hopefully DD's friends won't spoil it for her by telling her what happens. OH knows better than to do so.

BTW Neil Gaiman won a Hugo for "The Doctor's Wife" and 'let slip' that he might be writing another episode “...only a fool or a mad man would try to do it again... so I’m on the third draft.†|
Re: Dr Who
Episode one of the new series was Matt Smith's best one yet IMHO.
I have been missing David Tennant and not really enjoyed Matt Smith, but this episode was great :thumbup: |
Re: Dr Who
Think I read somewhere that this effort by the ABC resulted in their highest ever iView audience...so at last a broadcaster downunder gets it. If "they" want to stop piracy for TV programs, let the audience have immediate access worldwide, not 6 months later when anyone who wants to really watch has ripped it off the net already. Ch's 7, 10 and especially 9 really need to wake up to this, although they'd probably trash the whole idea by plastering ads all over the place and those stupid banners at the bottom of the screen. Within 10 years I'd say the majority of TV will come through the net.

It's also interesting that downloading the 720p BT version took ~20mins 24 hours after release. There is probably a crossover point when its better to download over BT than watch iView, and its probably within about 6-10 hours of transmission. And yes, they would probably try to plaster ads all over it - which decreases the usefulness and increases the value of the BT rips. Luckily blocking web ads has become something of a mature art... |

Re: Dr Who
I was disappointed with it- very predictable. Matt Smith is painful to watch- not the acting, just the physical form. He looks like he has ricketts and is an old man. Get him some decent trousers for goodness sake.

Re: Dr Who
