[ID: DOUBLE-BILL PREMIERE on Eurovision Night! Eps 1 &2 launching together! So this is how it works. Episodes will drop simultaneously worldwide. That's midnight May 11 on the iplayer, which is May 10 to the, er, left of GMT, for Disney+, and then the episodes will air on good old terrestrial BBC One that night, May 11. Two lovely episodes and then Eurovision, mean, come ON! After that, one episode a week, on iPlayer & Disney+ midnight GMT, then BBC One that night. Doctor Who everywhere, all at once. @/bbcone @/disneyplus @/bbciplayer @/bbcdoctorwho] thank you to @hollow-keys for the ID
Oh my god its not even a few hours apart its an entire DAY between the streaming drop and airing on TV. I take back RTD being a good business man. Allowing Disney to strong arm them into this shit deal (because its obvious Disney wanted better metrics from their US audience) is ridiculous.
For the next series I'll either have to watch it every week at fucking midnight or be spoiled by the time I watch it with my family the next day. Good bye to my sleep schedule for 2 months i guess! What a fucking riot.
Not to mention how this will decimate BBC1 viewership. You can just imagine the dominos "uh oh, Doctor Who isn't doing well! Too bad I suppose we'll sell it off. To who? Oh maybe the Mouse that's been doing suspiciously well with it. Definitely no connecting reasons there!"
Absolute fucking bollocks
