It's impossible for you to have known but... I also pay the TV Lincense ;-)

I just find it interesting that they've only really given us cut versions oif the trailers recently and the US seem to get so much more.

I'm sure the part-funding deal demands it (you could even comment about attention spans and differing expectations from networks and so on I suppose), but I still don't think it's totally "right". Especially in an age when the 50th Anniversary was simultaneously broadcast to 90+ countries.

Sometimes I really hate the backstage politics of Doctor Who.. but somehow, despite all that lark, they manage to produce a show I love.

Also, I'm finding it very hard to wait the six days we have left!
