Title: Doctor Who Weekend on Watch
Post by: poprockgeek on May 21, 2011, 05:53:33 pm
Next weekend (May 28th & 29th) in the UK, Watch is going all Doctor Who. Throughout Saturday from 9.20am they will be showing the following:

9.20 The Next Doctor
10.45 Doctor Who & the Daleks*
12.20 Daleks - Invasion Earth 2150 AD*
14.00 Doctor Who: The Movie
15.45 The Next Doctor
17.00 Doctor Who at the Proms (DT Proms)

Sunday features a lot of the same stuff with the following differences:

11.45 Army of Ghosts
14.05 Planet of the Dead

The films I've marked * are the Peter Cushing ones which I haven't seen but am curious about so I'll certainly be giving those a watch. Would be nice to see some of the Classic stories in amongst this but ho hum! 2 days of not being able to complain there's nothing on TV is better than nothing  :)

I've not seen the Peter Cushing movies so might give them a watch. Isnt Bernard Cribbins in one of them?

Shame about the choices, but doubt they have rights to much.

I miss the heady days of GOLD having classic marathons, even if they were always heavily stacked with Tom Baker stories!

Yeah I agree to an extent. Wonder who has the rights now cause Watch split off from GOLD when that went comedy only  :-\

Doh!
That was really funny, Barrowman may be a tv wh0re, but he sure knows how to milk a crowd!
Wish I'd seen your post sooner, Double P.
