Canada Airdate: April 5
March 2
The new Doctor Who series will air beginning Tuesday, April 5 in Canada, according to a solid airdate confirmation from the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) and from several sources including Benjamin Elliott's "This Week in Doctor Who." According to the report, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) has scheduled Doctor Who for Tuesday nights at 8PM starting April 5, 2005. So far only the April 5th broadcast (without episode title) is showing. They have put up a temporary webpage up for their Doctor Who broadcast, though there's nothing there.

If you live in Canada or are in a border section of the US with access to the CBC, the Doctor has a home on April 5. And this should put to rest any worries that the show will broadcast earlier in the UK...

2. Someone's bound to put it on the net pretty quickly.

But I assume the US deal will be sorted out pretty soon - the new series is big business.

4. It looks good. Really good.

At least Eccleston can act.

5. Christopher Eccleston is a good actor

I wonder if they'll try to tie-in the awful 1995 TV movie, or just skip over it as if it never happened?

6. It's a fresh start, I hear.

Best thing to do - keep it canonical, but not too canonical.

7. That's a good thing, I didn't want it to distract from the new storylines

:)

8. It's got potential, as I've read some of the plotlines.. but it'd better

not be like "Rose" was. Yuck. MTV on Speed with some very cringing, unfunny humor.

Has potential though... looking forward to episode 2, for one obvious reason...
