Sooner than you might think,
from what I read last week it's going to start 1 week after it starts in America {so around the 29th}.

The BBC even have started promos for it:

I read that it will begin on the 25th, just a three day gap to stop people illegally downloading it.

I'd be very surprised if BBC got it so soon. Channel 6 has always managed to trump the Beep by a couple of months on this one.........

The impression I got from the add was it was a new season starting.

It was a new season for them... For season 1 Sci-Fi had it first, for season 2 the BBC did...

At least the tv stations here have realised that if they don't show the US shows nearly straight away everyone will download them... Which is good...

Just saw the ad for it on BBC there, so yeah it's airing very quickly given that they used to be nearly a year behind!

I imagine they're trying to beat the downloaders as I read that the season premiere was one of the most heavily downloaded episodes of any show yet.

Just saw an ad for it on Channel 6 - they've changed the schedule for tonight (Monday 29th/9) so that the countdown is at nine and I guess that makes the 1st episode of season 3 at 10
