This page will list UPDATES and NEW pages added.

We would very much like BroaDWcast to also function as an index to Doctor Who clips on YouTube, especially USA pledge-breaks, convention footage and any foreign language clips. If you already know of or stumble across any, please send us the link.

  • And don't forget, clicking on the AIRDATES Airdates icon icon on the country profile pages will take you to the airdates summary for that country (N/S = Not Stated)
  • We're on TWITTER. To "Follow" us, please 'click' here or via the link found in the "external sites" section of the left sidebar.
  • We also have a dedicated forum and email address - see sidebar to the left.


January 2014

  • 8 January:
I wish to make it clear to our readers that the "Is This the List of Found Episodes?" that was sent (anonymously?) to and published by Doctor Who Archive / Worldwide in November last year is NOT the text designed to prank hackers / snoopers that was 'hidden' in the source code in July. Nor is it the "placeholder text" that was also 'hidden' elsewhere on the site circa March.
That "List" is clearly a fake designed to look like it was extracted from the Bicycling Chains source code. But it lacks the correct templates, formatting and layout coding required for this MediaWiki to function. Without the correct coding, text like that would be rendered a jumbled nonsensical mess -- as displayed HERE. There are also two sentences that contain phrasing which does not comply with the house-style adopted for the site.
The distinction between the "placeholder" text (held since March 2013) and the "hacker / snooper prank" (added in July) has become muddied somewhat, and that is probably where much of the confusion lies.
Should anyone wish to discuss the "List" and the events of July 2013, please use the BroaDWcast Forum on GallifreyBase.
