Friday night insomniacs (and Saturday morning people with good VCR's) can watch the chilling story where the Daleks conquered Earth. The original cast of the 1st Doctor, Ian, Barbara, and Susan battle the Daleks to try to free humanity. One of them does not leave Earth. The VCR rolls again Sunday morning to catch the 4th Doctor's visit to an Earth recovering from solar flares. A completely abandoned planet, well, apart from the humans and the alien and ... what are they doing here? The Doctor must find out. This story was originally scheduled for last week, but was moved for no apparent reason.
