Now will this be the original UK airing or will it be the slightly adjusted Canadian version?

What was changed for the Canadian version? That's a bit disturbing...

Celine Dion opening theme!

Celine Dion opening theme!

Oh, that's just WRONG! Please tell me you're joking...

 

[sieglinde]

LOL!

What did they do, CGI snow into the scenes?

 

[myriadian]

will they also be showing the 'dr. who confidential' makings-of that were aired with the first season of dr. who? those are pretty nifty.

M.

 

[esperantisto]

No Confidential. But it is still a great thing that Sci-Fi is showing Who. We need to advertise this to the hills!

 

[dirtypacman]

I have looked at SCI-FI site today and checked listings through Friday 3/3.... Its supposed to air Friday 9pm starting in march but no sign of it anywhere... Please tell me it will be the 10th

 

[VinceA]

I think it's supposed to start on the 17th

 

[Rob Helmerichs]

Yeah, there's this silly little thing called Battlestar Galactica in the way before then...

 

[Guindalf]

I think it's the following week.

I have the whole series on my hard drive - including the Christmas special. It's awesome. I loved it. It still has the sense of humor that Dr Who is famous for and in my opinion, Christopher Eccleston is a great choice for the Doctor.

Spoiler

I only hope David Tennant is as good - the first outing looks promising, though.

 

[NJChris]

I wonder if they will carry Torchwood too if this is successful here.

 

[Pralix]

Torchwood would have to be successful over there before they bring it over here.

 

[jmoak]

Some place settings were 'localized' for the canadian audience

What does "place settings were 'localized' " mean??

 

[Figaro]

I hope that you all have "adequate sustenance for the Doctor Who marathon!"

 

[jmoak]

Ah HA! A Doctor Who place setting!!!

... now to find some Doctor Who silverware.....

 

[Stormspace]

Celine Dion opening theme!

No. It's RUSH. They paid 10 bucks for it. 10 bucks is afterall, 10 bucks.

 

[NJChris]

Torchwood would have to be successful over there before they bring it over here.

Hehe... true, but I was going on the assumption it would be. I'm not cynical enough for the internet, I think.

Very good thanks!!

Capt. Jack is a great character. I am wondering how much his "flexiblity" will have in a decision to bring the show over here especially on the Sci-Fi channel.
