The Doctor, Romana and K9 face new dangers searching for the second segment to the Key to Time. What has happened to the planet it is hidden on?
Instead of landing on Calufrax as originally intended, they arrive on a different planet and encounter the Mentiads, and the strange Captain.

UKTV Gold http://www.ukgold.tv http://www.onthebox.com/partner/otb
(All times 1 hour later on UKTV Gold + 1)
Saturday 7:05-9AM GMT The Pirate Planet movie
Season 16, Episodes 5 through 8. Doctor: Tom Baker. The Key To Time quest continues, as the Doctor and Romana have problems finding the second segment - they have arrived at the right time, in the right place, but on the wrong planet. Alas, they will never complete their quest - at least not on UKTV Gold. The network is skipping the rest of the season.
Sunday 7:05-9AM GMT City of Death movie
Season 17, Episodes 5 through 8. Doctor: Tom Baker. The Doctor and Romana find that Paris is the home of time experiments that could bring about the extinction of humanity. Wouldn't be good for the art treasures of France, either. Particularly the Mona Lisa. The highest ratings the series ever got - admittedly helped by ITV being off the air for a strike - but a well liked story anyway.
