Report from the This Week in Doctor Who Archive:
Friday 11th September 1998:
SPACE: The Imagination Station is the specialty Cable station airing Doctor Who nationwide. This Sunday, sit back and watch The End of Tomorrow, episode 4 of The Dalek Invasion of Earth. Ian and Barbara take various routes trying to get to the mines in Bedfordshire, where the Daleks seem to have their base. This episode will air at 8AM and 3:30AM Eastern Time.
This week also marks a change in their weekday broadcast schedule. Beginning this week, the weekday episodes will only air once, at 7:30AM Eastern Time (8:30AM Atlantic Time, 4:30AM Pacific Time). If you have SPACE, I would advise watching as many of these broadcasts as you can. SPACE decided to cut back on broadcasts and not to buy more episodes due to low ratings. If you want to change their minds, the ratings have to go up. This week they are running episodes 6 through 10 of The War Games, the final 2nd Doctor story.
SPACE is also airing a Doctor Who special this week. I Was A Doctor Who Monster! will run Tuesday afternoon at 3PM Eastern (4PM Atlantic, Noon Pacific). This is another chance to get your friends to watch and show SPACE that Doctor Who programming can get viewers.
