I think so, but it's not in HD, if I recall correctly.

Then maybe Netflix is the way to go.

"Time Crash" was a "Children in Need" (a charity fund-raising telethon) special in Nov 2007; "Voyage of the Damned" was the 2007 Christmas special.

Or, erm... bittorrent... no, I did not just say that.

Dr Who does show on SyFy HD (doesn't it still).... so I should be good.

it seems odd the way the episodes are sometimes newest on scifi and sometimes on bbc. I just try to get them on both.

I'm another not Donna fan. loud mouthed, whiney, and not even a thinker

I liked grandpa though.

I've gotten used to changing Doctors. My first was Tom Baker, but I saw only a small part of his run before I was introduced to Jon Pertwee on another channel. Spotty Who showings since then resulted in my seeing very little of the Doctors after Baker, and I wasn't much enamored with what little I saw. But when the series came back on a few years back, I just said, "Christopher Eccleston? Okay, whatever. Let's go!"

I was surprised when Eccleston left so soon, but I thought Tennant made a great Doctor. I'll miss those white sneakers.

Bob, make sure it is searching BBC America and not just Syfy. The new ones are on BBCA.

BTW, exactly when does the new season with the new Doctor begin on BBCA?

And Harry T, thanks for reminding me of how Romana began. I'm beginning to forget some of it. I wish the old shows came on TV again.

Isn't that what DVD's are for?

Well I bawled like a baby and vowed never to watch the new Doctor. I've calmed down and am now willing to give him a chance. Tom Baker was my first Doctor. (I really wanted a scarf like his) I tried to watch other Doctors but they didn't work for me until Christopher Eccleston and David Tennant.

I read that Russell Davies and David Tennant are coming to the states to do a television series.

They were "touring" together doing interviews before these last shows.

After Season 4 finishing airing, the BBC took that opportunity to get out of the contract and move Doctor Who to their own channel in the US. Can't really say I blame them.... SyFy was doing weird stuff with the schedules which was sometimes hard to follow, and the only reason BBCA didn't get it in the first place is because BBCA didn't have nearly the access to viewers that SyFy did initially.

Ah... guess I will have to update my TiVo season pass. A shame since I don't get that channel in HD.
