Thanks.

It supports the theory that there is something strange going
on with Isaac Newton. His housekeeper and the Steeleye Span
fan in the pub really are the same woman, not just played by
the same actress, and she’s ‘a woman we’ll see a lot more of’
in future.

Yes, I got the impression that the Isaac Newton scene was not as it
seems. Mainly because Donna didn't know the word "gravity" in Wild
Blue Yonder when the Doctor said it, he then the corrected it to
"mavity".

I think RTD has laid the groundwork for a LOT of things that will be
explained in Season One... or even Season Two.

It’s probably gonna start on 18 May, the weekend after
Eurovision. The world isn’t ready for the camp cheesiness
if both shows on the same night!

You can read the scripts now though can't you? So there's no excuse
not to know what went on!

No, I imagine SP actually means Steeleye Span! As in, the folk band
that is called Steeleye Span!

Yes, of course... you'll be able to access it anytime on the iPlayer.

I actually think it could be on the same night as the Eurovision. I
could see RTD liking that idea.

Yes. Thank you.

The woman mentions Steeleye Span and asks for their
song Gaudette.

Why bother with Chakotya? The BBC have supplied the actual script in

I'm just thinking it's the sort of thing that RTD - and the BBC -
might like the idea of... but like SP, I'm only speculating.

The FA Cup Final is the 25th May...

Which is the last Saturday of May, so I'd say Season One would have
started by then.

Yes I know, of course everyone can choose.

What I meant was, now that the BBC are supplying the actual scripts,
people and fans interested in writing/scripts and that sort of thing
would probably prefer to view and/or download the actual script than
read a HTML transcript.

The Chakotya site has served us well over the years for checking
stuff from Doctor Who episodes out but now the BBC are providing us
with the official scripts for the episodes, all in one place. I
think it's great.

Eurovision doesn't usually start until 8pm, maybe 7:30pm? Whilst the
FA Cup Final usually kicks off at 3pm, so neither would really clash
with any Doctor Who episode if they was on around 6pm ish.

I'd say it won't be too long before the BBC Spring schedules are
out, so we'll find out soon.

You haven't missed much! Well, unless folk music is your thing.

Steeleye Span were kind of popular over here back in the day, which
is the only reason I'd heard of them. But we're a very folky music
country anyway.

You're supposed to listen to it... and/or sing along.

Don't know, but I have noticed in the last few months if I use my
back-up news server (eternal-september) random posts go missing.
Maybe posting multiple links or cross-posts set off some nntp
server's spam filters? As it's usually my posts with Doctor Who
related YouTube links or news article links that don't appear,
especially on eternal-september's servers.

Although nothing I post to RADW is earth-shatteringly interesting
anyway, so don't worry you haven't missed out on much!!!

Thing is, the crossposted post arrived, the others are missing!

The other week I changed something about local filter software, finally
getting replies to be highlighted (automatically would only work if it's
Fidonet posts). I wonder whether I messed up something there.

.. After checking headers, doesn't look like it.

"Organisat. : xs news" posts are missing (but before that, there was one
highlighted one even).
"Organisat. : Indigo News" posts still arrive.

But it's one of the few sources of signal, versus all that tagging each
other names and replying to everything said noise!

Just checked through yesterdays posts made by me to RADW. There are
14 messages to RADW in my sent folder, plus Dave's stats list 14
messages as well, which mean the NetKnow nntp server received my 14
messages. (First time I've ever found them helpful!) All 14 messages
appear on the 'news.eternal-september.org' and 'reader.xsnews.nl'
servers... so there are no issues there as both servers carried my
messages.

It is possible the fact that I cross-posted the BBC script links, and
there was two URL's in the same post, triggered your news server's
filters, or maybe an nntp peer en route blocked them?

So, I don't know what the issue is as you was replying to my
messages a week ago???

I will single post messages with URL's in future and see if that
makes a difference.

Yeap! Eternal-September does have a limit of allowable Cross-posts (four
I think), but this shouldn't effect you .... unless you are replying to
"Yellow Beard Yadallee" and he has Cross-posted to extra UseNet groups
over and above his usual four groups!!

Nah, there's plenty of links in other groups I read. De.rec.garten and
rec.arts.sf.written, mainly.

Yeah. Going by old messages, something happened about 1 to 2 weeks ago

That's the Dutch for yer... pay peanuts get monkeys! They are
normally very good though. Maybe they don't like Daleks and naked
women either?!

I will investigate with them and see what's going on... I suppose I
could always move my business to our friendly neighbourhood nntp
service, NetKnow...

Do you do porn binaries?

> You and I do not like tim!

Not true!!!

I don't know Tim and - banter aside - I can't dislike somebody I
don't know.

I don't like Tim's constant (as was) number/date 'spamming' [my
term]of RADW... if Tim were a responsible poster here I would have
no problem engaging with him. I dislike nobody.
