One was :10/10: amazing, visual, exciting, funny, interesting...things looked good for the show...
Two: 9/10: not bad at all but a few questions lingered but still not bad.
Three: 6/10: what? What was really going on? Lots of unanswered questions and characters acting...oddly...
Four: 0/10: TW u p to their old incompetence again: dangling plot holes, charaters who don't know what they are doing and getting themselves killed for no good reason, lots of silly behavior, etc. Insipid plotting and silly jumps of logic. Again. Awful.
And jack on the beach...in Trenchcoat and giving a serial killer part of the plan and the kill'er's reward: death. Okay that might work. No, it didn't. We're not given any reason to care about the code word and what it might do...or anything else really for the matter. Characters make the same mistakes again and again; does anyone have a good firm concept of undercover on this show?
How could the man that gave us such good stuff as Seasons one to four of DW and Queer as Folk UK give us...this?

Well, now that the trailer is up, it's time to update the list of titles for the remainder of the season. These titles are from the BBC's 'Doctor Who' website, so I think we can assume that they are reliable.
Picking up from "A Good Man Goes to War':
8. Let's Kill Hitler
9. Night Terrors
10. The Girl Who Waited (NEW INFO)
11. The God Complex
12. TBA
13 TBA
...and there we have it, for now. We probably won't get the last two titles until near their air-date, but we may be surprised.
You can view the known titles and a some brief information about all the remaining stories on the 'Doctor Who' website.The story is here:
WARNING: There are minor spoilers on the website, but overall there isn't that many there. But still, be advised that if you don't want to know - you shouldn't read this story.
The trailer has the date Aug. 27th in it, so I'm a little surprised - I was expecting the series to resume around mid to late Sept..
I'll be looking forward to it.
PS: I haven't seen the trailer on TV yet, but I expect it will probably start airing soon.
EDIT: (a few days later) Just to confirm things - the trailer is being broadcast on BBC America. I saw it while I was watching 'Kitchen Nightmares' on BBC America - so, it is running.
I just discovered that the same trailer that we've been seeing for the last several days on the BBC America website is now available on the BBC's 'Doctor Who" website.
The only difference is that there is no airdate (and of course the change to the BBC logo).
Here are some updates on some fresh episodes of the podcast starting of with
Ramble Extra - King of Wrestling that includes....
For this week's extra edition it's the king Blues music and some exciting action. First up it's another trip to the Sound Stage in Chicago when I review the bl-ray of B.B. King LIVE (courtesy of eOne Entertainment) as a living lengends preforms along with guests Terrance Howard, Solange and Richie (not Ricky) Sambora. Then it's a trip to the mean streets with my DVD review ofBlood Out (courtesy of Alliance Films)starring 50 Cent, Val Kilmer, Vinnie Jones & Luke Goss as a cop has to dropp hi badge to lay down the law. It's a trip to the 12th Century with the blu-ray review of Sword of War (courtesy of eOne Entertainment) starring Rutger Hauer as a small army plots to overthrow a German Emporer. The it is time to highlight a warrior of the squared circle in Rey Mysterio : The Life of a Masked Man (courtesy of eOne Entertainment) as the WWE's high flyer is highlighted in this 3-disc dvd set. It's a journey across the universe as I give my video game review of Green Lantern : Rise Of The Manhunters (courtesy of www.gameaccess.ca) for the PS3 fighting as Hal Jordan in this God of War style fighting game. Music for this week features the songs Silver Bullet by Vanton, Empty Hallways by Joe Sibol, Grey, Green & Blue by First Circle and The Mask by Allen Mayes, they can all be found at www.blackstackmusic.com. Other instrumental music is by the band Mr. Burns (www.mrburnsmusic.com). As always your comments and suggestions.
Then it is on to Episode 260 - The Jaws of Cpatian America featuring...
This time around it's an episode full killer sharks, code, collisions and captain america. First up it's a journey into the deep blue sea as I give my blu-ray review of Shark Week : Relentless Fury (courtesy of eOne Entertainment) featuring the host of the Late Late Show Craig Ferguson as we look at the biggest bites in water as prep for Shark Week coming this Sunday on the Discovery Channel. Then it's the blu-ray revioew of a mind-bending actoin thriller Source Code (courtesy of eOne Entertainment) where one man must save the life of millions with only 8 minutes to work with starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Michelle Monaghan and Vera Farmiga. It's a trip to the not-so friendly skies with the dvd review of Turbulent Skies (courtesy of Anchor Bay Entertainment) as a computer virus threatens the lives of a 747 starring Casper Van Dien and Brad Dourif. To wrap things up its off to the movies for my solo review of the latest film from Marvel Studios Captain America : The First Avenger as the star spangled hero tackles the evil Hydra with his trusty shield and gun(wait did I say gun, yup gun) in this lead up to the Avengers movie. Music for this episode features the songs Passin Time by Willie Strings & The Players,He's Lost by Blood Ruby and Stay By My Side by Greg Schuler, they can all be found at www.blackstackmusic.com. Other instrumental music is by the band Mr. Burns (www.mrburnsmusic.com). As always your comments and suggestions.
I've embedded your link of that YouTube version in the main posting now. Unless it too is removed. 'We mustn't promote the episode after all, people may watch it.'
Yeah, I think we could take the end of the trailer promo as a confirmation that the series is returning on August 27th. I think I saw it somewhere else from BBC America as well.
BBC America has updated their widget to run the countdown for the new episodes. Can we consider this a confirmation or not... I'll leave you to decide.
The trailer is no longer available? What harm could it do keeping this promo available until at least the time that is broadcast, or even after. It can only help the actual showing of the episode. It makes no sense.
Late coming by. Always delighted to hear of a new Hartnell era DVD. While I strongly support the restoration team and find that the old eps absolutely benefit from improved quality presentation, I am frustrated some of the first series of Doctor Who still hasn't been released on DVD yet. Personally I would've wished for The Sensorites before Reign of Terror but at least one of them finally looks firmly set to see a DVD release. Likewise, although I'm sure we'd love the original footage to turn up, it is great to see still-missing eps animated, especially if it helps more people to watch it where they might not watch the older style recons.
@ The2ndDoctor; Do you happen to know if the DVD will include the recap w/Carole Ann Ford that's on the tape? I think that would be great for fans and a fair option for those who may still chose to skip the recons (although I very much look forwards to watching these animated recons, opinions are bound to vary). Do you know whom I might ask or offer the suggestion to?
Thanks for covering this news here. Hope it will soon see a release and there will be more to come.
Well it has been far too long since I did an update here so here it goes...
Check out the latest episode 260 - The Republic of Harry Potter
This week it is some home grown and across the pond on the show. First up it's the life of a marketing executive in the dvd review of Reggie Perrin Set 1 (courtesy of eOne Entertainment) as he struggles with his crappy job, too busy wife and strange co-workers. It's a trip to the Newfoundland with my dvd review of The Republic of Doyle The Complete Second Season (courtesy of eOne Entertainment) along with season 1 as private detective Jake Doyle solves crimes and fends off girlfriends in this CBC drama. It's back to England as I give my dvd review of A Flim With Me In It (courtesy of eOne Entertainment) as a seies of accidents cause a lonely man to take some drastic actions. I wrap things up with my solo movie review of the record breaking Harry Potter and The Deathly Hollows Part 2 as of of the biggest movie series in a generation comes to a close. Music for this week features the songs Razor Blade Evenigs by Short Course Saviour, Wii Fit As Long as I Live by Wicked Celtics and Morning Glory Shake by beat synthetic, they can all be found at www.blackstackmusic.com.

Thanks for posting the episode title list here. I had been curious about them since the trailer came out for 'The God Complex' at SDCC.
Well, now that the trailer is up, it's time to update the list of titles for the remainder of the season. These titles are from the BBC's 'Doctor Who' website, so I think we can assume that they are reliable.
