It seems that Sky have done a U-turn on their decision to broadcast B:TAS twice a day at 07:30 and 08:00 on weekdays. Episodes were due to begin twice daily on the 4th of Feb. (last Monday). This means that The New Batman Adventures will begin broadcasting later than initially thought. The episodes - that have never been broadcast before in the UK - will now begin on Tuesday April 9th with 'Holiday Knights'.

Hey Divv,

Do you go to www.batmanuk.freeserve.co.uk ? Maybe that site will help you out in your animated Batman endeavors. The site is run by BrianUK, a great friend of mine who also does the quaterly Batman: Animated fan magazine - which I also contribute to. Not to pry, but which episodes have you seen so far?

Thanks for the link Jim, I am really enjoying Batman UK. Sky are showing episodes pretty close to production order. There are slight changes to the order when it pertains to two-parters where Sky always show them back to back. So far I've seen everything up to 'Mad as a Hatter' which I watched this morning. 'Dreams in Darkness' is on tomorrow. So I've watched 27 episodes another 82 to go can't wait to see them all!

They're airing the episodes every day? If so, it shouldn't take long for you to get caught up! And you'll really like "Dreams of Darkness", a very awesome episode. Ranks up there as possibly the best 'Scarecrow' episode.

Yeah, Sky are airing episodes every morning, seven days a week. Saw 'Dreams of Darkness' this morning. I really enjoyed it. Best Scarecrow ep. I've seen so far.

Shows them every day? Awesome! There are some stinkers you'll have to sit through (I've Got A Batman In My Basement, Cat Scratch Fever), but the many greatly outway the few. :)
