Sat 6:30-9AM BST The Talons of Weng-Chiang movie
A night at the theatre for the Doctor and Leela goes quite awry. Women are disappearing, and the answers seem to come from the sewers and a struggling theatre, where Li Hsen Chang is pleasing the crowds like they have never been pleased before.
Sun 7:10-9AM BST Horror of Fang Rock movie
A suspicious fog impedes a lighthouse which is set up to protect ships from crashing on rocks. But the fog is not there for the purpose of harming ships - it is there to cover up an alien invasion.
