| News of Confidential's debut on Australian TV and the marathon has now been reported at Outpost Gallifrey and posted by ADAMK and thanks to him for acknowledging me in the report as it was the first time that I have been mentioned there. |

The 2005 season starts at midday on Saturday June 9 & the 2005 Christmas special The Christmas Invasion followed by the 2006 season starts at the same time on the following day Sunday June 10.
As well as showing the episodes of the series, UKTV is also showing the cutdown 15 minute versions of Doctor Who Confidential. Each Confidential episode will be shown following from its corresponding Doctor Who episode.
The marathon for The Christmas Invasion & the 2006 season marks the first time these episodes would have been shown on UKTV. The screening of the Cutdown versions of Doctor Who Confidential will mark the first time ever that Doctor Who Confidential has ever been shown on Australian television. |
So they are just going to show the DW-Confidential episodes in between each Episode of the 'Marathon ??
Or did i read it wrong  |

Yeah Doctor Who Confidential will be shown.
I saw an ad for it during a break for Jonathan Creek. It was promoted as the Doctor Who Weekend and all I can say is that the ad looks spectacular. |

I saw that after the marathon on staurady is finished, after that is SURPERNOVA,
& In episode: 2, the crew thought they had discovered god in a wormhole in space that led back to the creation of the universe.
It turned out to be the face of Jon Pertwee's Doctor Who when the transmission of Doctor Who on TV was interrupting thier satellite frequency.
'But this Episode repeat of the Episode will be first shown on 'Tuesday, at 4:00am - Or 6:00am, on UKTV +2. |

I saw 'Dalek' and it's confidential episode but when you've got it all on dvd it looses impact.
I love Doctor 9 and 10 the most
*I love all The Doctor but those two are MY Doctors |

 The Marathon On Sunday was Hardcore,
It went from '12:00pm Sunday, To 2:10am Monday... And not to mention the Extra 2-hours you get with the 'Delay-Channel' (UKTV+2)
So, 16-hours & 10-mins...
And i watched it all |

 I got the clip of it here,
& the guy in SUPERNOVA or is it the Writer has no idea what there talking about... The guy watching 'Monster of peladon, was saying what was going on in the episode, But what he said what was happening in the episode was false,

For whatever reason according to the Optus December Guide, UKTV will not be showing the individual screenings of the 2006 season in the said month. This means that the last individual screening UKTV will have for now is The Impossible Planet this coming Tuesday November 27 and Sunday December 2 in its usual slots.
This comes just as Torchwood will debut at UKTV on Tuesday December 11 8:30pm (which I had already mentioned in the Torchwood UKTV thread). This means that if UKTV had continued with the Doctor Who screening in December, Torchwood would have debut after Love and Monsters.
In any case the timing of the Torchwood debut is disjointing with UKTV individual Doctor Who screening as the Torchwood series opener Everything Changes takes place after Doomsday the finale of the said Doctor Who season.
Question is why not show the rest of the episodes of the said Doctor Who season (on an individual basis) before showing Torchwood.
All the episodes of the said Doctor Who season had been shown before on UKTV from the marathon on the Queen's Birthday weekend earlier in the year but surely not everyone (who hadn't seen it before) would have been able to watch all of it in the one weekend. |

Checked with the Optus Guide and the 2006 season will resume screening on UKTV at the usual time on Tuesday January 8 with The Satan Pit. The resumption of the Doctor Who screening on Tuesdays will be followed by Torchwood at 8:30pm (with Very Little Britain being sandwiched in between).
Showing Doctor Who and Torchwood back to back is like Sci Fi showing the Star Trek shows back to back. All related shows being shown together. |

| I didn't like that they finished DW with a 2-parter, showing the first one and then having to wait next year for the 2nd part |
