But while that’s still case, the BBC has announced news that should give some reassurance that Doctor Who will have some form of future on TV.

The immediate future of the International Space Station is suddenly in doubt thanks to a single tweet. Elon Musk, owner of SpaceX and unelected advisor to President Donald Trump on basically everything, wants the venerable station gone, and he wants it gone sooner rather than later.
