Late Fri 12:25-1:45AM BST Planet of Giants movie
Sat 6-8PM BST DOCTOR WHO the 1996 movie (UK edit)
Sun 9:30-11:20AM BST The Androids of Tara movie
Not only is BBC Choice airing more Who than normal this week, but so is UK Gold. The Late Night Black & White adventure is Planet of Giants, where the 1st Doctor, Ian, Barbara, and Susan found themselves 1 inch tall in the yard of an English house. Thankfully for them, all the natural predators are dying mysteriously. This story has the famous 'cat' cliffhanger. On Saturday, it's a special encore of the 1996 movie. Paul McGann, Eric Roberts, Daphne Ashbrook, and the scissors which snipped the story to get it past the BBFC. On Sunday the 4th Doctor decides to take a vacation, leaving Romana to find the 4th segment of the Key To Time by herself. The Doctor thinks this is an excellent idea, until someone tries to kill his scarf.
