Sat 7:10-9AM GMT Terror of the Autons movie
The 3rd Doctor faces two dilemmas. One minor dilemma - an old friend known as "The Master" has set up shop on Earth engaged in a series of murders and schemes in hopes of causing an alien invasion. One major dilemma - he's had a new untrained assistant thrust upon him - Josephine Grant! UK Gold will probably air the 1992 colour restoration of this story, as apparently they have aired it before. They are unlikely to air the 1999 re-restored version, as they often do not think to check for the cleanest versions of stories. There's a slim chance they might air the black & white version by accident, of course.
Sun 6-9AM GMT The Mind of Evil movie
The 3rd Doctor and Jo investigate a new medical technique that promises to eliminate the evil impulses of psychopaths and murderers. Medical miracle - or evil mental re-engineering? Meanwhile, U*N*I*T faces the twin tasks of transporting an ICBM to a place where it can be disposed of and keeping the peace at an International Peace Conference. This story is the first of several Pertwee stories to feature subplots about peace conferences. Since no colour copy currently exists, we know this one will air in black & white.
