Thu Pyramids of Mars pts 1+2 of 4
Fri Pyramids of Mars pts 3+4 of 4

The 4th Doctor and Sarah continue to try to make it back to U*N*I*T. They arrive a tad early - 1911. An Egyptologist accidentally unleashed the power of Sutekh, a being of enormous power. If Sutekh is allowed to escape his prison on Mars, all life may be destroyed.
Sat Horror of Fang Rock all 4 pts
Leela and the 4th Doctor arrive at a lighthouse trapped in unnatural fog. Something is stalking the people at the lighthouse. Paranoia and fatalism run rampant as the number of survivors drops and drops.
Sun The Invisible Enemy all 4 pts
The Doctor's mind is infected by a virus. The virus wants to use the Doctor to lead an army and conquer all life. It's up to Leela and a robotic dog to help the Doctor recover and battle the growing menace.
Mon The Brain of Morbius pts 1+2 of 4
Tue The Brain of Morbius pts 3+4 of 4

The 4th Doctor and Sarah did get back to U*N*I*T, but BBC Kids already aired that story out of order. When the Doctor and Sarah arrive on a desolate world covered in dead spaceships, they find themselves in a turf war between an immortal sisterhood (who wants them dead) and a mad scientist (who wants to slice off the Doctor's head). What secret from Gallifrey's past has put the TARDIS crew in such jeopardy?
