Broadcast notes:
This slot was originally scheduled to show an episode of Doctor Who at 5:35-6:00pm - this would either have been Spearhead From Space: Episode 3 according to the EPG, or The Three Doctors: Episode Three according to the UKTV website, which listed "A gel-like plasma creature arrives on Earth & hunts down the Doctor, who calls on the Time Lords for help. They then send the Doctor's earlier selves to join him."
