Report from the This Week in Doctor Who Archive:

Friday 21st August 1998:
WTBU 69 in Indianapolis, Indiana is a non.PBS Public TV station that airs many overseas shows, including Doctor Who. This Sunday at 6PM, relive The Creature from the Pit in movie format. Special marks in this story to the Astrologer and the wolf weeds for their scene stealing. This story also marks the first appearance of K9's new voice, provided by David Brierly (John Leeson wanted to move on, but he would be back). 90 minutes of heavily under.rated Who adventure.
