Online-only channel BBC Three is returning to TV - but does this mean we could also be seeing the return of BBC Three Doctor Who spin-offs like Torchwood and Doctor Who: Confidential?

In this week's Doctor Who podcast, we take a "local" angle on the BBC Three return to take a look at the history of Who on the channel, be that as a home for repeats or the launching ground for follow-up series.

Plus, we take a look into the future to wonder whether BBC Three's comeback will actually make a difference to Who fans.
