I would have thought the 6th series would have aired in the U.K first. Should be a great series can not wait. I would have thought the 6th series would have aired in the U.K first.

The Five Doctors had its world premiere in the United States, on the Chicago PBS station WTTW and various other PBS member stations on 23 November 1983. It was transmitted in the United Kingdom two days later on 25 November. Also, this is not the first time Doctor Who has been filmed "the other side of the pond". The 1996 pilot was filmed in Canada. Shockingly, the 1996 Doctor Who "the movie" had a UK viewing figure of 9.08, it was not considered to be enough for the BBC to continue investing it's own money into the series. Considering the new series, there having only been 14 episodes in 6 years with higher viewing figures. Er…. can I just say, this is not the first time this has happened.

At any rate we know it'll air in the UK first, but whether that's by a few hours or weeks remains to be seen...

That would place the UK premiere on April 9th. Someone somewhere predicted that date. Hmmmm. Who was it? Can't wait can't wait can't wait can't wait can't wait!

Dr who is a british show and we should be getting the news first then the US. But at least UK fans have titles from some of the episodes. I am completely annoyed by this!
