    Doctor Who: 50th Anniversary Programmes on TV and Radio

    I don't know about anyone else but I'm getting a bit confused as to what show is on when, so I've made a list. TV is in green, radio is in blue, red button is in red. All the info comes from here and here & here. I'm only putting shows new to a channel & not repeats (for instance those on Watch) on this list.

    With a special emphasis on the atmospheric 1960s, tonight’s reading from Audio Go is based on the original TV serial from 1963.Nuclear threat looms large in this evocative tale, no more so than in the radiation-ravaged world of Skaro. It’s there the TARDIS heads for the Doctor’s fateful first meeting…Tom and Jerry, Lex Luthor and Superman, Seinfeld and Newman… all great feuds start somewhere. So it is for the Doctor and the bane of all his travels, the Daleks. How did their paths first cross? Were the Daleks always ruthless and evil? How did they come into being? All of these questions are answered in the very first adventure involving the metal-plated meanies. Not only that, but it’s told in the first person by one of the very first companions, Ian Chesterton (as played by William Russell).Expect a very different slant on how the Doctor and Ian met, too, involving Barnes Common and everlasting matches.

      An Adventure in Space and Time - BBC 2 - 9.00 pm

      This special one-off drama travels back in time to 1963 to see how the beloved Doctor Who was first brought to the screen.

      Actor William Hartnell felt trapped by a succession of hard-man roles. Wannabe producer Verity Lambert was frustrated by the TV industry’s glass ceiling. Both of them were to find unlikely hope and unexpected challenges in the form of a Saturday tea-time drama, time travel and monsters!

Featuring new interviews with the cast and crew of the series, the programme looks at the lasting appeal of Doctor Who and asks how much of its continued success can be attributed to its basic formula.With archive clips and the music of Doctor Who composer Murray Gold, Who Is The Doctor? considers the character of the Time Lord across all of his regenerations and revisits the origins of the series with Waris Hussein, director of the debut Doctor Who story, An Unearthly Child. The programme also examines how the franchise survived when the show was off TV, considers the impact of the revival in 2005 and assesses the value of the series to the BBC.

              Thanks Alan. I've just spotted that list. I noticed there are some programmes with unconfirmed dates and times, like Blue Peter on the 23rd, The Story of Trock and Who Made Who. I'll keep my eyes peeled & add them when I see them.

                Thank YOU, Blen.
                Yes, there's a couple of entries in that list there that have a couple of questions marks against them. I'm sure that they'll be updated very soon. Time is ticking by after all...and only 17-days to go!

                  HEEEEEEEEEE!!! Ahem.

                  I'm really excited about The Science of Doctor Who and An Adventure in Space and Time in particular. Oh, and The Day of the Doctor.

                  As a very old Who fan, I've been watching the classic episodes on Watch and regressing happily.

                    Thanks for the lists. I get confused very easily, so this will help me greatly.

                      So do I. I refuse to believe that it is age related though. I think it must be due to solar flares or something.

                        I think we all do get the dates down subconsciously but it does sometimes feel like it would take a Mind Probe to get them out.

                          Does anyone have any idea if any of these programs will be viewable on BBCAmerica? I know we'll be able to see "The Day of the Doctor", the David Tennant "Doctors Revisited" and "Graham Norton Show". I just checked the schedule on the website, and there's no mention of any of the programs airing in the UK.

                          Kinda considering re-locating to the UK for the month of November....

                              Damn it! I definitely live in the wrong country.

                              Yeah, copy that!
                              Nobody asked me, if I wanted to live. So don't anyone tell me how I shoul lead my life.
