Report from the This Week in Doctor Who Archive:

Friday 6th November 1998:
SPACE: The Imagination Station
Sunday at 8AM EST, early Monday at 3:30AM - The Romans: Inferno - episode 4 of 4
Monday through Thursday at 7:30AM EST - The Keys of Marinus - episodes 3 to 6 of 6 (The Screaming Jungle, The Snows Of Terror, The Sentence Of Death, The Keys Of Marinus)
Friday at 7:30AM - The Aztecs: The Temple of Evil - episode 1 of 4

As The Romans concludes, the Doctor and company must use their wits to survive as various plots begin to fall apart. Monday and Tuesday's episodes are unusual because the Doctor is not in them. Thankfully, he's back for the last two 'Marinus' episodes. Friday, of course, Barbara is declared a god. As you'd expect, her ego goes through the roof.
