I'm not going to speculate as to her precise identity, but if we take everything the episode showed us at face value:

• She knows what a TARDIS is.
• She did not recognize the Doctor's police box as a TARDIS until he dematerialized it in front of her, and even then did not seem to know who the Doctor was.

Again, if we are to take all this at face value, I think that narrows the list of candidates significantly, and rules out most, if not all, "familiar" characters.

Could she be a former companion of a pre-Hartnell Doctor? I know the Fugitive Doctor's TARDIS appeared as a police box to Thirteen, but it's very possible the chameleon circuit was operational in those days.

Good point - all things the CBC is solely responsible for.

However, I'm forced to award you 50 000 demerits for taking time away from fixing the climate and economy to write that comment. Do better.

Been a few years since you watched it, yeah?

sir this is a pleasure planet

When you're logical, you're logical.

It is not good.*

*in my personal, but I think pretty uncontroversial, opinion.

I'm not sure the people who engage in this sort of tomfoolery are concerned with atomic clock-level precision.

It's coming to Steam sometime in the new year.

I'm not sure - I've been alerted that Canal+ and Netflix both have it in France - can you confirm?

We're doing our best to sort out the international availability in a stickied post, if you haven't seen it!

Paramount+ cancelled it, but CBS Studios sold it to Netflix and it remains in production. Season 2 will debut there in 2024.

That's entirely up to you.

It was nice to see the author of the piece dive in to the fact that the various Paramount subsidiaries don't always share the same goals or agree with the decisions of the others.

I can confirm it's now showing up on CTV.ca.

It doesn't have to be "per day" - it needs to be often enough that they'll be deterred from getting an EV.

Look, I'm pro-EV, but I think it's important to acknowledge that in a country as big as this one, there are going to be people with justified "range anxiety."

Oh, they're absolutely outliers.

But I'm one of them, so it's in my mind. And there are still plenty of people in rural settings for whom it'll be a concern.

“Range has improved,” said Mark Marmer, the owner and founder of energy consultant Signature Electric. “Now most cars and trucks have at least about a 300- to 350-kilometre range, which is a reasonably comfortable thing.”

When on a longer trip, a charge to give an extra 150 kilometres or so will take about 15 to 20 minutes, but that also depends on the speed of the charger, according to Marmer.

Unfortunately, that's a pretty hard sell when your work day requires more mileage than that, and you want to get home asap.

I've got to say, the CBC seems to have a really strong news team in NS. I see a lot of good work coming from that bureau.

Hell, I support the carbon tax, but I couldn't tell you how much I've paid, how much I've received (well okay, I could look that up), or what the overall environmental impact has been.
