Friday 15th March 2002:
UK Gold http://www.sceneone.co.uk/s1/tv/listings
Sat 7:10-9AM GMT The Curse of Peladon movie
Sun 6:15-9AM GMT The Sea Devils movie
Well, it seems official. UK Gold wasn't airing restored versions of Doctor Who stories after all. The final piece of evidence was when UK Gold aired
their "unique" version of The Dæmons again. In the restored version, episodes 1,2,3,+5 are restored to colour by combining a color US off-air recording with a black & white master print, while episode 4 is the original 625 line PAL colour VT. UK Gold airs the first 4 episodes in black & white, then presents the recoloured episode 5. This unusual version previously aired in the UK in 1998 and 2000/2001, with at least one report that it was used in 1997. In the mid 1990s, UK Gold aired the correct colour version.
