I want say that I am sorry in passing along some bummer information. When I called my mother-in-law and talked with her, I mis-understood what she said about the 18 month hiatus. I understood it to be that is what happened and not a cancellation and that the hiatus was cancelled. Well, now I admit that I was wrong. I enjoy the Dr too much to pass along bad information. I did call the BBC and the duty office. As of 4:55 pm, 3/7/85, London time, the show is still on hiatus for 18 months. I also registered my complaint. The phone number given by Jamie Green had a minor error, at least for my part of the country. Do not dial the 1 before dialing the rest of the number. 011-411-743-8000 will do just fine. I guess that it is time now to do some letter writing. Nicolet Instrument sponsors and IBM-PC bulletin board, that I am the SYSOP of. It is the official Madison area Dr. Who Bulletin Board. All of the information that I am receiving from the net is being relayed to the BBS. There are a lot of Dr. Who fans on the BBS. Mr. Video ..!ihnp4!uwvax!astroatc!nic_vax!brown PS: Everyone likes to leave a quote from the Doctor, but I can't remember the quote that Peri says to the Doctor and what his reply is. But, I will review the tape "Attack Of The Cybermen" and tell it another time.

Murphy was looking over my fingers. The correct phone number is: 011-441-743-8000 Sorry about that. I hope that most of you got the drift about the 1 not being needed in the original article. I see lots of typo errors in articles. Normally they are harmless, but this time you would have gotten Zurich. Mr. Video
