*'''12 January 2025''': '''Doctor Who''' aired on Australian TV for the first time '''60 years ago today''' - albeit just in Western Australia. (The other regions got it on a staggered basis days, weeks or months later...) To celebrate this major milestone, we have updated, expanded and adjusted ALL the [[Australia]] profile, history and airdates pages (22 of them!), and added some new ones. Some of the additions include:
*'''23 July''': What a strange day it's been.... Exactly four months out from the Big Five Oh and oh how the brown stuff has hit the fandom --- again. Sigh. Believe what you will. BroaDWcast has had 30 months to build up its reputation, and we'd like to keep that untarnished. But if a dozen or so individuals who don't understand how MediaWiki mark-up code works want to see and believe only what they want to see and believe, then so be it. Just because we make changes to pages without announcing them here on What's New every time doesn't mean we are hiding anything. And why would you want to know that we've added one word to a page anyway? Right -- is it November yet? I want to see [[The Daleks' Master Plan]] part nine!

**Expanded coverage of the [[Peter Cushing]] Daleks movies...

**Added airdates for Townsville and Rockhampton, which operated as separate networks during 1965 and into early 1966...

 +
**[[Airdates in Australia|Airdates tables]] now have static column headers which make them easier to read when scrolling down...

**Some of the Year-by-Year history pages have been reconfigured, with some split in two...

**[[Australian Merchandise]] has its own page...

**What's the difference between the ABC's Bond Store and its Film Library?

2025 Updates

  • 12 January 2025: Doctor Who aired on Australian TV for the first time 60 years ago today - albeit just in Western Australia. (The other regions got it on a staggered basis days, weeks or months later...) To celebrate this major milestone, we have updated, expanded and adjusted ALL the Australia profile, history and airdates pages (22 of them!), and added some new ones. Some of the additions include:
    • Expanded coverage of the Peter Cushing Daleks movies...
    • Added airdates for Townsville and Rockhampton, which operated as separate networks during 1965 and into early 1966...
    • A new page detailing the ABC's regional network structure - with maps...
    • Airdates tables now have static column headers which make them easier to read when scrolling down...
    • Some of the Year-by-Year history pages have been reconfigured, with some split in two...
    • Australian Merchandise has its own page...
    • What's the difference between the ABC's Bond Store and its Film Library?
    • And how was the ABC able to air the same episode in two or more regions on the same day..?
