Countdown to the Canadian Invasion
Next to, of course, the really big news of the weekend, another exciting thing to happen was a massive write-up on the series in the Review section of The Globe and Mail. The article brings up a few of the hoary chestnuts (crappy props, wobbly sets, fans called Whovians, Daleks are robots that haven’t conquered stairs) but on the whole it’s an upbeat preview of the new series.
The presence of a giant write up in Canada’s most prestigious national newspaper demonstrates—as if we needed such proof—that the Doctor Who juggernaut is getting warmed up to conquer Canada like it has the UK. And with a TV Guide cover feature coming later this week, Canadians are going to get a taste of the excitement the Brits had in the days leading up to a new series…

It is great to see this coverage, though a bit of a shame the writer didn’t talk to any Canadians about the show. First time I can ever remember the show getting on the front page of a newspaper in Canada.
