Doctor Who on the UK's Horror Channel (Scheduling)
News on the schedule for the Horror Channel's classic Doctor Who season which commences this Good Friday, April 18th. For those of you in the UK without paid satellite/cable television, I can only commiserate and reiterate my feeling that we really ought to be seeing something like this on one of the BBC channels, not tucked away in a niche.
Still, after this weekend's opening marathon, it looks like there is going to be a regular schedule of two episodes of classic Who every weeknight at 7.50pm (and with showings during the morning and afternoon, as those cable channels seem to have to repeat everything several times a day to spin the programming out). In other words, cliffhangers!

The Easter weekend schedule in more detail
And also check out the funky animated trailer (at the bottom of the first post linked above), clearly made by somebody with a bit of Who knowledge as you can identify the various stories being alluded to. And that voiceover sounds a little familiar...?
And if, like me, you've never really watched it thinking it looks a bit dodgy, the Horror Channel can be found at Sky channel 319, Virgin Media channel 149, or Freesat channel 138.
