The surest sign of an impending deluge of press reports is upon The Three Who Rule — a slow news week, aka the calm before the storm. In what seems fitting for an audio podcast, most of the points of discussion involve audio work including a look at the recently transmitted “Shelved” which notes the reasons behind the cancellation of Shada (among other shows). Graeme Harper — only the second subject not to be chosen randomly — gets his turn in the Miniscope. Much well-earned fawning occurs over Harper’s Doctor Who ouevre along with lamentations over knowing Harper isn’t involved in Series 5/1/31. |

The latest SPACE Podcast, for the week of December 11, 2009, has been released, again featuring a segment by The Three Who Rule. This week, the lads talk of the dark days of the BBC — missing episodes. Join hosts Mark Askwith and Ajay Fry and have a listen for yourself!
Today’s Doctor Who fan has always-on, ever-present access to not only the newest iteration of their favorite show but all the spin-offs, supplemental features, fan films and other esoterica related to their favorite program. They probably don’t realize how different their situation is from the early Sixties, when one’s Doctor Who fix consisted solely of a once-a-week viewing. If you missed it, you never saw it again. And in the case of many stories from that decade, that was quite literally what happened.

With the Three Who Rule reunited once more, and with the analytic powers of the Third Guy squarely aimed at schedules, Appreciation Indexes and other such numeric minutiae, a slow news week was transformed into quasi-random babble and buildup to the exciting segment you’ve all been waiting for….Douglas Camfield in the Miniscope. Praise for Camfield’s prodigious output was universal if varying in intensity, but all three hosts agreed the man was a force for good (for the show) and bad (for Dudley Simpson’s career.) |

The latest episode of The SPACE Podcast has been released featuring a segment by yours truly, The Three Who Rule. The lads introduce themselves to the SPACE Podcast listeners in what’s sure to be the first of many collaborations as Tennant’s last episodes draw nigh on Canada’s Doctor Who broadcaster.
Join Mark Askwith and Jay Drakul on the latest episode, and keep your ears open for more from Radio Free Skaro on SPACE!
Today the BBC Press Office officially confirmed transmission dates and times for The End of Time Part One and The End of Time Part Two. The UK will see The End of Time Part One at 6:00 PM GMT on Friday, 25 December whilst Part Two will go out on Friday, 1 January from 6:40 PM GMT. Speculation has been rife of late and it’s always at least a bit wonderful to see nobody had guessed correctly.
On the other side of the pond, SPACE has today released when Canada will see Tennant’s finale. While The Waters of Mars will be seen at the same time on SPACE and BBC America, Canadians will have to wait a whole extra week to see The End of Time Part One. SPACE will be running a Doctor Who-themed marathon on Saturday, January 2 featuring a double run of Torchwood: Children of Earth followed by the Doctor Who gap year specials in order. The End of Time Part One will finally air at 8:00 PM EST in an 80-minute slot while Part Two will follow immediately after at 9:20 PM EST in a 100-minute slot. (SPACE is a commercial network and therefore has to allow time for advertising.)
For those in Canada or otherwise with access to SPACE, it looks like January 2 is going to be a good day to be a couch potato.
