Doctor Who Series 3 DVD Commentary Track Update

Wow, that's a clumsy (but descriptive) title.

Back in November, I reported that the commentary track for the season finale of Series 3 had been changed from what was announced (and what had been included on the UK releases of the DVDs) with different track. Instead of Tennant, Agyeman and Barrowman, the DVDs were released with a previously recorded podcast of the show's producers (including Russell T Davies). Nothing to sneeze at, certainly, but a disappointment. The BBC said that rights "could not be cleared for the North American DVD," which was widely believed to mean that reported multiple commissions of singing by John Barrowman had made the lawyers nervous.

Well, the lawyers have apparently been appeased, and the BBC is offering a download of the original commentary track for folks who want to hear it.. Coolness.
