    Anyone else hate what happened to http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho ?

    I used to love the official Doctor Who BBC website .....

    BBC - Doctor Who - The Official Site

    Within the last few months it's turned into total crap, imo

    New stuff I really hate ...........

    1. New format takes forever to load their crappy front page gifs

    2. If you're from the USA and want to view a video, they basically say, GET THE F OUT YOU FREELOADING YANK !!!

    3. Classic Series links are NOW HIDDEN

    4. New format just looks crappy

    Sorry for the rant.

    I'm sorry...but that "freeloading" bit made me laugh....
    I just discovered the site a few weeks ago...
    Most of the video content I can't access because it's PC only.

            What about Southern Ireland.
            I hate that.
            On the weather on the BBC they sometimes mention what it will be like in France,
            but never southern Ireland.
            Sorry rant over.

              I'm not big on UK politics

              Isn't "southern Ireland" now counted as it's own country "Ireland" and not counted as part of the United Kingdom ?

              I have no idea what their status is....

              Seems like it changes every few years
