WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA–BBC America hosted an evening event for the TV press at an appropriate venue–the swank London West Hollywood Hotel. Critics partied poolside on the rooftop while local mermaids performed their water ballet. Some guy by the name of Gordon Ramsay cooked up the tasty vittles. The stars and creators of such BBC America fare as Bedlam, Doctor Who, Friday Night Diner, 24 Hours in the ER and The Hour all mingled, as did Emmy-nominated Idris Elder from Luther. Matt Smith (Doctor Who) is the youngest time traveling space lord in the shows 48 year history. Doctor Who is scheduled to return to BBC America in late summer.
