What's New

This page will list UPDATES and NEW pages added.

We would very much like BroaDWcast to also function as an index to Doctor Who clips on YouTube, especially USA pledge-breaks, convention footage and any foreign language clips. If you already know of or stumble across any, please send us the link.

• And don't forget, clicking on the AIRDATES icon on the country profile pages will take you to the airdates summary for that country (N/S = Not Stated)

• We're on TWITTER. To "Follow" us, please 'click' here or via the link found in the "external sites" section of the left sidebar.
• We also have a dedicated forum and email address - see sidebar to the left.

July 2013

• 23 July: What a strange day it's been.... Exactly four months out from the Big Five Oh and oh how the the brown stuff has hit the fandom --- again. Sigh. Believe what you will. BroaDWcast has had 30 months to build up its reputation, and we'd like to keep that untarnished. But if a dozen or so individuals who don't understand how MediaWiki mark-up code works want to see and believe only what they want to see and believe, then so be it. Just because we make changes to pages without announcing them here on What's New doesn't mean we are hiding anything. And why would you want to know that we've added one word to a page anyway? Right -- is it November yet? I want to see The Daleks' Master Plan part nine!

June 2013

• 29 June: We've added a commentary on Richard Molesworth's book "Wiped! Doctor Who's Missing Episodes (Updated Edition)" focusing on those 'facts' where our interpretation of and conclusions drawn from the same paperwork differs widely from Richard's.

• 26 June: I went back to Ohio ... and found airdates for WOSU and WOUB.
• 12 June: We've added some new information to the United States--1965-1969 and United States--1972 pages. The series was offered to US stations back in April 1965!

• 29 May 2013: More newspapers for Libya have been accessed. The profile has been updated, but we are still none the wiser as to what aired and when.
• 21 May 2013: The lists of airdates in Cleveland and Akron are complete. First airings for WFSU added.
• 17 May 2013: First airings in Pensacola found, plus a full page TV Guide ad and a contribution from its artist.
• 10 May 2013: We've made some corrections to the summary and airdates of the Australian repeats (Block 20: 1987-1988), specifically the repeats in Melbourne.
• 1 May 2013: We've ... erm ... junked our cluttered Hartnell Junkings and Troughton Junkings pages, and replaced them with a combined set of tables showing possible "Bicycling Chains"
