Been waiting for this for months...and then they release it three days early :D

Downloading as we speak - my inner geek is squeeing loudly :wink:

Do our Canadian chums pay into the BBC license fee?

Ah...I see :lol:

However, I'm sure that, before long, there will be some way for international fans to get a hold of this game (which, by the way, is really, REALLY good, so far :twisted: ....sorry! :wink: )

It said that for the kids' machine too (to be fair, it is rather old :-)) but once I'd stopped everything else from running it seemed fine.

It worked fine on my own laptop :-)

The Beeb do a great job on the website for all sorts of their shows and channels (particularly CBBC/Cbeebies, etc!!!)

Then, of course, there was this Dr Who game from a few years ago - become David Tenant's companion in a specially written episode...

Only other time I feel like this was when they (The Beeb) paid for a taxi for me to be interviewed on BBC Radio Wales. Saved me the bus fare to work...

Steady on - without the 'Unique way the BBC is funded' we'll end up with wall-to-wall reality shows!!

Long live the license fee - anything to save us from adverts every 15 minutes....!!!

Just finally got round to completing this - was great fun (if a little repetetive as previously mentioned!!). The opening and closing credits (along with Murray Gold's excellent 'theme' from this new series) really helped you believe you were in an actual episode!

Roll on Episode 2!!!

You've only just done it?

I downloaded it and did it in an hour ;)

But maybe that is student life for you!

Quite so.... and, anyway, after waiting so long for it - why blow all the excitement in an hour?? :-)
