Bit of a time slip by the BBC
At the end of last night’s epsiode of Dr Who, fans were left with a series of cliffhangers which had them on the edge of their seats (not least in my house!).
However, we were all excited to be told that at 1pm today there would be a special trailer for the series finale – so I expect that there were a lot of fans like me waiting patiently for the end of the Politics Show to get a glimpse of what is coming.
Nothing. Not even a faint sound of drums. Nada.
Seems like the folks at the Beeb had a little senior moment and the trailer never aired.
Clever marketing tool to boost viewing figures for Sunday afternoons or just a bit of a cock-up? You decide.

Created quite a few unhappy fans I would guess …
*UPDATE* Looks like the BBC are revisionist, as they’ve taken down the apology for not showing the trailer and just say “if you missed it”! Anyway, the trailer is now online, enjoy.
