Fri The Android Invasion pt 1 of 4
Mon-Wed The Android Invasion pts 2 - 4 of 4

The 4th Doctor and Sarah think they have returned to Earth. But the planet is an imposter, part of a plot to invade the real thing. This story features the final appearances of Benton and Harry Sullivan. While often mistaken for the final 70s U*N*I*T story, U*N*I*T does reappear in The Seeds of Doom, without the regular crew.
Thu-Fri The Brain of Morbius pts 1 - 2 of 4
On a forgotten world not that far away from Gallifrey, a scientist (Philip Madoc) is engaged in a gruesome experiment. To complete it, he needs a head. And the 4th Doctor's head would be ideal.
