Report from the This Week in Doctor Who Archive:
Friday 2nd April 1999:
UK Gold
No Friday Broadcast - Good Friday
Sunday from 8:30AM to 11:20AM The Seeds of Doom movie version
I suppose it makes sense. On Good Friday, when people remember the death of Christ, they're not really going to be in the mood for Doctor Who. On Easter Sunday itself, set that VCR to record a 4th Doctor story often considered to be a homage to The Avengers. Two improbable seed pods are discovered in Antarctica. An eccentric nature lover wants the pods at all costs. And Earth may pay the ultimate price in his quest to preserve this 'special' vegetation. This would be the last UNIT story until 1989.
