After the Royal Wedding, everything seems like a massive letdown. Still, a lull was required between it and the Logies…

7:30pm: Dr Who/Dr Who Confidential – ABC1
8:30pm: Spooks – ABC1

Never thought I would be living in a world where Doctor Who wins a time slot in Australia on a Saturday night. As sore as I am about not living in UK and having a ‘delayed’ broadcast – ABC1 are on a winner as it would not perform as well against Sunday evening competition. Be VERY interesting to see how it performs across the series. Will new viewers care about a story arc and want to follow through to conclusion?
