Doctor Who on BBC i-Player / Blog Update


The Doctor Who content has now arrived on the BBC i-Player. Naturally the Pilot and An Unearthly Child are not present due to the ongoing issues with the copyright holder. Only the colour versions of animated stories are available, apart from Power of the Daleks as they use the special edition which was only ever made available in B&W. Orphan episodes can be found in an Extras section. 
RTD has stated that Tales from the TARDIS will not be available outside the UK. Fans elsewhere can always download a free VPN, however, if they wish to get access to these.
I will start watching the first couple of these today and offer my opinion later.
A reminder also that BBC Four has the new Tennant fronted documentary this evening, followed by the 60th Anniversary concert. 

With all of the anniversary stuff really getting underway, I will be posting fewer of the regular items over the next few weeks to concentrate on that. 
NB: I am also taking a one week break from the Episodes posts on Sunday. This isn't to do with the anniversary, rather that I've just noted that a one week delay will mean episodes 7 and 8 of The Daleks' Masterplan will now land at Christmas and New Year, just like their original broadcasts.
