New updates & information for the SAVE WHO! Campaign.
Doctor Who wins TV60 Award!
The big news, of course, is that Doctor Who won the Most Popular Drama at
BBC's 60th Birthday Awards! On November 3rd, 1996, Doctor Who won Best Drama
beating out such celebrated shows as "Casuality" (The British equivalent of
ER) and the long running favorate, "Eastenders". Sylvester McCoy and Peter
Davison graciously accepted the award, stating: "perhaps this award will
make the BBC reconsider the shows future".
This is now the ideal time to write to FOX and the BBC for a new series. FOX
still owns the rights for Doctor Who until the end of 1996, and as it is
November, we should double our efforts in getting the show back on the air.
If FOX turns this down, the BBC is the next logical place -- especially in
the light of the new award!
