(Everything airs 1 hour later on UKTV Gold + 1)
Saturday 7-9AM BST The Visitation movie
Series 19, Episodes 13 through 16. Doctor: Peter Davison. Tegan learns that she needs to be more specific with the Doctor. He gets her back to Heathrow Airport on time to meet her flight. Indeed, they arrive early. 317 years early. Plenty of time to get through security, but a tad impractical. Fortunately there's a bunch of aliens causing trouble to deal with.
Sunday 7-8AM BST Black Orchid movie
Series 19, Episodes 17 through 18. Doctor: Peter Davison. The 5th Doctor takes part in a cricket match and stays around for a dinner party, when a murder intrudes on events. The first non-sci-fi historical in the series since The Highlanders in the 2nd Doctor's era.
