I think they skipped a bit of the un-Doctoring Donna, too--some of the Doctor/Wilf conversation. Very disappointing, especially the Bad Wolf Bay part.
And Kaylee, what the hell's goin' on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Yes, they did, in order to get the preview of Ashes to Ashes in. I'm glad I saw it before the cuts!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Barbaric, it was.
Slightly spoilery interview with Eve Myles about the next season of Torchwood.
I liked this bit about the first season:
I think the moment where Gwen catches Ianto and Jack kissing is hilarious. And even doing it - I had to go in, and they would be kissing, and then I'd say, "Oh! My God!" And I didn't, for a good long while. I kind of let them carry on. And they were like, "Oh, please, Eve! [laughs]" And so we did it again. And that was great fun.

Man. They suck. I'm sure that PbS will run it complete AND run the Who Confidential afterwards.
That interview with Eve Myles repeats that Torchwood will run in the US and the UK on the same schedule and (once again) does not mention a date.

Sci-Fi didn't cut anything out of that one; they aired it in a 90 minutes time slot. But BBC America always cuts longer episodes down to 48 minutes for an hour-long slot. I don't think PBS has procured the rights to series four yet.

No, but when they do - they always run the Confidential afterwards and I would guess that they would run the whole thing.

I've been missing the Confidential on PBS all this time? D'oh!

Right - if you watch the repeats - it ends early because PBS doesn't have ads, so they play the confidential to fill the time up 'til the top of the hour.
BSG: Canadian Promo for next week's episode. Once again the emphasis is different than in the US episode but it does give away something that the US one does not.
