Right … it’s Wednesday.
And … ?
It’s the day after Tuesday: as you’re probably aware, that means my nephew’s posted more videos: including one of Mikey the Rabbit.
Feel free to give them a watch … !

If you’re a Dr Who fan in the UK, you probably very aware that the complete new series has been on the iPlayer — the BBC’s catchup service — for many years.
And that classic Dr Who’s been on Britbox.
I’m usually stream to the digital copies I own, locally.
There’s upsides and downsides to online streaming: the one that annoys me is simply the fact I don’t own physical copies of the media the streamed episodes are on.
But? I know the new series is there, should anything happen to those copies.
However, something new’s due to happen.
According to an
article on the Radio Times’ website?
Both classic and new Dr Who will be shown on the BBC iPlayer, from 1st November, this year.
As will Torchwood, The Sarah Jane Adventures and Class.
I’m glad to hear it: it makes sense to have both under one, BBC managed, roof.
The only downside?
The article doesn’t tell us how foreign fans will be able to access the classic shows: nor what will happen with the missing episodes.
Nor whether the blu-ray releases — with the associated extra content — will continue.
I hope we get to find out.
