Report from the This Week in Doctor Who Archive:

Friday 14th August 1998:
MPT Maryland takes a break from the Hartnell episodes for two weeks to offer pledge specials. This week, they offer the Steve Robertized version of The Five Doctors (extra footage, new special effects, and some relocated scenes), beginning at Midnight late Saturday, following a Red Dwarf marathon. Of course, they've probably irked some viewers by interrupting the serial The Daleks at the moment where the first Dalek menaces Barbara, leaving that story hanging until August 29th. Still, you can't please everyone.
