    Default Rent an episode of Doctor Who on Facebook

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/pressoffice/bbc...facebook.shtml

    In a new venture for BBC Worldwide, the BBC’s commercial arm will tomorrow offer a series of digitally remastered Doctor Who stories to rent via Facebook. By using Facebook credits, users visiting the official Doctor Who page will be able to stream a selection of nine stories (each containing several episodes) from the history of the Time Lord, including digitally remastered classics such as 'Tomb of the Cybermen' as well as modern day favourites 'Silence in the Library' and 'End of the World'. 'The Greatest Show in the Galaxy' will be a Facebook exclusive, having never been released on DVD.

    What an odd idea. I think I'll stick with the DVDs.

    I'm definitely no luddite in all things 'new media', but this does seem like a very odd move.

    Wow they should do this with Torchwood episodes, so you can watch them at the same time America does, that would be fantastic!
    Remember, just because Davros is dead doesn't mean the Dalek menace has been contained ......

    The messages are being beamed into my head already! The aliens tell me what to do! They send me Sky Movies free while they're at it, so who am I to complain?

    Indeed, who am I?
