I live in the US so I have to downloa-- I mean backup all the episodes from the UK. (BBC America gets them a month or so late)

You'd be surprised how fast the torrents go up! Like under an hour after they've aired!

I don't trust torrents. Virus ridden is what I've heard.

Sure, if you're downloading an entire movie that's 30KB! Razz

Now conventional P2P networks, THAT'S something to worry about if you're virus-phobic...

BBC America?!
seriously?
BBC America gets Doctor Who second run (they show TORCHWOOD in first run, Doctor Who on BBC America is always about a series/season or so behind SciFi which aired "Partners in Crime" on Friday)
Do you have Sci-Fi Channel?

Did the main Sontranan remind anybody else of gimli from lord of the rings?

you need to use proper torrent sites where you can see user comments and ratings on the file, not only will these tell you if the file is safe or not they will also tell you about the quality of the material itself. Wink

No, more of that guy from The Young Ones and Bottom. You know, Mike and Dave Hedgehog.

....Adrian Edmondson?











(I'm kidding. I know it's Christopher Ryan, who has appeared on Doctor Who before)

I like the way the Doctor killed the Sontranan in the child genius' house.

He didn't; He just injured incapacitated him temporarily.

To kill a Sontaran using the probic vent, you need something sharper. An arrow or a knife, with accurate precision, does well.

I am totally loving the new series! I was a bit worried when they said Donna was coming back because I didn't like the Christmas episode. Don't know what I was worried about though! I love the alien planet AAAND it wasn't just a quarry in Cornwall (as most of the previous planets were on the older series!)

Look for the DVDs as well. If you have a list of Doctor Who tapes and you want to know which ones to watch, then let me know.
