All But Confirmed

The schedule posted on the NBC site lists two new hours of Doctor Who on September 29 and says that it is the second series premiere.

Of course, the question is, are we getting The Christmas Invasion or are we jumping straight to New Earth.

Of course, schedules can change -- but it certainly looks like September is when it will start, and we'll then have both Battlestar Galactica and Doctor Who.

I feel I must correct my correction on a posting on the Behind the Sofa blog then. At any point, it looks really really likely that we'll see Doctor Who and Battlestar Galactica back to back. It is common for some people to try and set it up as Doctor Who vs. Battlestar Galactica... but this just shows that they're allies, not rivals. Two exceptions to the usual rule that revivals are pale reflections of the originals.

Updated 6-Aug-2006: Outpost Gallifrey has more about this as well.
