More Doctor Who furore
The BBC are following up the Doctor Who leak with an article on downloading tv shows. I also heard a few interviews on BBC Radio 1. Firstly they say that they have caught the person responsible for the leak and are prosecuting. Secondly someone said "downloading tv shows is like walking into a shop and sticking a DVD up your jumper and walking out." Then Christopher Ecclestone said "Whoever did this is spoiling it for everyone."
What?! I may be straying into Cory's territory here, but, isn't that a load of nonsense? Spoiling what? For whom? uh? And the BBC have just been told to stop chasing ratings, so why do they care if there's a leak? They're not even supposed to worry about how many viewers tune in. Unless this is all a cunning plan....it has generated a lot of publicity. And right before the press screening tomorrow. Hmmmm.
By the way, any media reviewer types out there who are going to the press screenings tomorrow are welcome to guest post here. I'll either give you full credit or keep your anonymity if you want! Go on....unshackled from your ediorial policy....you know you want to.
