Apologies if there's already a Doctors thread, but the BBC Two encore screening has been axed already.

Playing Devil's Advocate here but it didn't help four nights in they dropped an episode to accommodate The One Show due to extended news on BBC One - and the episode didn't get repeated.
But I'm not sure the lunchtime/teatime thing is really needed anymore to be honest. Neighbours is going, Home and Away viewers are seeking it out on 5 Star and My5 (and interestingly aren't bothered about losing HD) and I imagine Doctors fans who couldn't watch at lunchtime were already seeking it out on iPlayer anyway. I'm not sure an evening linear repeat bought much to the party.
