I recieved bad news from England this morning. The BBC has decided to NOT
to make any more Dr.Who programmes for at least eighteen months.
As of this time I have have no further information. When I recieve more, I
will post it to the net, unless somebody beats me to it.

Hopefully, JNT will use the break to take a good look at the quality of the writing of the show most recently and maybe do something about it. Question; Has every Baker episode been shown at least once in the Del- aware Valley?

I called the BBC the other day. I was told that Dr. Who is only on hold for 1 year. I was also told that when the Doctor comes back, it will be in a new format. -------------------------------------------- Brian Millham AT & T Information Systems Denver, Co. ...!inhp4!drutx!review "You're the 10th person to call from the states today!"

SMALL MATTER???????? Small matter, indeed! Watching the old Hartnell's and Troughton's and Pertwee's and Baker's (not to mention Davison's) is one thing if you do it out of choice, but to be FORCED to do so for a year? (and what about the people, in Chicago for instance, who watch them as they come?) [Sorry, I don't mean to flame. It's just that...] A. G.

Just about everybody involved now will be doing something else. They could call it "Dr. Who rides the moors". --Lee {ucbvax,gatech,pur-ee}!unmvax!lee
