...if the signals came back with comments.
Update: to save you the trouble of finding out from the comments: I fell for an out-of-season April Fool's joke. Bah.

Aughhh!! I blame the person who posted it on Facebook earlier today. "friend" indeed. It actually crossed my mind that it could be a joke, especially when I got to the part about recovering lost Dr Who episodes, but I didn't stop to give the thought any serious consideration.

As Will says, it is labelled 1 April. The thing with April Fools is that they must be utterly deadpan.

This one certainly was. If I'd read it on or around April 1 I would have caught on, but just popping up on fb in the middle of December... Still, I can't believe I didn't stop to consider the implausibility, if not impossibility, of it. Or notice the Dr. Who clue.

Yeah, not really playing by the rules to pull an April Fool's in the middle of December.
