Same here - WILL (University of Illinois) broadcasts a variety of Brit
TV shows. I've pretty much given up on TV - even Public TV. So now I
watch my old Doctor shows (and BritComs like Last of The Summer Wine)
on Amazon's Freevee service via my confuser.  

 EV> Much later a Independent local TV Station had Retro TV shows and The
 EV> Third Doctor series was shown
 
I was drawn to the yellow car that the 3rd Doctor piloted about.

 EV> Retro showed earlier Doctor Who shows and I got familiar with the First

 EV> Last Doctor I seen was #7., then I saw the ABC TV Special show.

So you've not seen Jodie Whittaker the 13th Doctor and first toots to
play the part.

I lost DSL when I moved into my present home and was forced to choose 
between Scumca$t cable or satellite. Having been in the satellite business
and knowing about rain/snow outs I sucked it up and did cable internet -
but not TeeVee. But when AT&T fiber bacome available at my location it
took me less than a minute to tell the cable company to stick their hook
up where the sun never shines.
