Friday 16th October 1998:
Iowa Public Television - channels 11, 12, 27, 32
Friday night at 11:05PM - The Ambassadors of Death - episodes 1 and 2 of 7
A rescue mission has been sent to contact several astronauts who disappeared on Mars months ago. When the rescue goes awry, the Doctor arrives to help. Before he can do very much, bizarre noises begin emanating. Episode 1 of this story survives in color, but the rest of the original prints were lost. An attempt at colorizing the episodes using a taped copy was only partially successful. Probably they'll just air the complete story in Black and White to avoid confusion.
