Sun 8-10:45AM GMT Planet of the Spiders movie
It's the end, and the moment has just been dynamited by a careless U*N*I*T soldier. A race of sentient spiders from Metebelis III spin a web of deceit in a Tibetan Monestary in England, where Mike Yates, formerly of U*N*I*T, has gone to clean up his life. Look for a Jo Grant reference, the Metebelis crystal, both of the Doctor's cars, gadgets, and a mission to certain death. It's time to say goodbye to Jon Pertwee.
