The last BBC-produced episode aired on December 6, 1989. Although the BBC in 1991 stated that it would no longer produce new TV episodes, the show has lived on in various forms since then, including novelizations (the New Adventures and the Missing Adventures), radio dramas, fan-produced videos, and most recently, a two hour telemovie, the result of a joint venture between the BBC and Fox which aired in the United States on May 14, 1996, and a week later in the United Kingdom. While <B>Doctor Who</B> has not been picked up by Fox as a regular series, the show has remained popular both in the U.K. and abroad.</P> <IMG SRC="bar1.gif"> <P><H2><CENTER>NEW - Gary Russell on IRC</CENTER></H2></P> <IMG SRC="bar1.gif"> <P>Gary Russell, former editor of <I>Doctor Who Monthly</I> and author of several <I>Doctor Who</I> novels, will be available for chat via the Sci Fi Channel's 'Dominion' website on Wednesday, July 9, 1997 at 20:00 (8 PM) Eastern Standard Time/15:00 (3 PM) GMT.
