BBC Kids http://www.bbckids.ca
7 Days A Week 1 + 3:30AM EDT (10PM + 12:30AM PDT) - 2 episodes weekdays, full stories weekends)
Wed The Robots of Death pts 3+4 of 4
The robots decide to come out of the closet as the killers of the day. All the humans are in fear of imminent death. Except for the one leading the robots, of course.
Thu The Talons of Weng-Chiang pts 1+2 of 6
Fri The Talons of Weng-Chiang pts 3+4 of 6

The talented Li Hsen Chang's magic show seems implicated when murders and disappearances occur. The 4th Doctor finds evidence of futuristic technology at work in the 19th Century.
Sat The Hand Of Fear all 4 pts
Note: when trying to sentence a criminal to death, you really should keep track of the body. I know scattering someone's silicon remains to all corners of the universe sounds neat and cool, but if you don't keep track of the body, you can't be sure that he's really dead.
Sun The Deadly Assassin all 4 pts
If all assassins were as good shots as this guy, there would be fewer recurring characters.
Mon The Talons of Weng-Chiang pts 5+6 of 6
The Time Cabinet holds the key to a return to the 51st Century. Either that or utter destruction.
Tue Horror of Fang Rock pts 1+2 of 4
See Iowa Public TV for details.
