*'''9 October''': The radio serial '''[[Slipback]]''' was broadcast over the BBC's World Service network in 1986, so its reach was far greater than originally profiled; we've updated the page to include some BBC WS listings.

*'''29 May''': Updates to [[Norway]], [[Sweden]] and [[Finland]]: new info regarding VHS releases added. <br />
*'''27 May''': The [[TV Movie]] was first shown on UK TV '''25 years''' ago. We've been trying to catalogue all the known '''foreign editions''' that were released on VHS: so far more than '''15''' have been identified, and there are likely to be more... <br />

*'''20 February''': Between 1976 and 1989, each new season of '''Doctor Who''' made its overseas broadcast debut in a different country - either the [[Netherlands]], [[United Arab Emirates]], [[Australia]], [[New Zealand]] or the [[United States]]... <br />
<br />
:''Or that's what we thought'', but it turns out that bar a handful (due to extra-special circumstances) '''all''' those fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh Doctor series had their foreign premieres in '''West Germany'''! Although the German broadcaster RTL-Plus began screening McCoy episodes in late 1989, those episodes - and a whole lot more - had already been aired in parts of West Germany by the '''[[British Forces Broadcasting Service]] (BFBS)''', which operated a closed-system television network that was available only at British military bases dotted around the country. The McCoy stories were also shown by the BFBS on the [[Falkland Islands]].<br />
::*We've added the '''[[BFBS|new BFBS profile]]''', and a page for the [[Falkland Islands]], plus made various changes and additions to the pages for the [[Netherlands]] (parts of which could receive the military signals), [[Germany]], [[Belize]], [[Gibraltar]] and [[Cyprus]] accordingly. <br />
<br />

We couldn't have done this without you.<br />
*This website turns '''TEN''' on '''19 February'''. We were going to have a party with cake, balloons and clowns, but that's been scrapped due to COVID. Instead, each day over the next ten days we'll be Tweeting a "Fun Fact" highlighting something of interest that was discovered during research. On the tenth day, we'll be uploading a new profile - that of a previously unfamiliar broadcaster who was actually the first to... Well, that would be telling!<br />
<br />
