SPACE: The Imagination Station is Canada's source for early Doctor Who. On Sunday they will air The Powerful Enemy, episode 1 of The Rescue at 8AM Eastern time. (The 3:30AM broadcast is being pre-empted this week for specials.) The 1st Doctor, Ian, and Barbara are still dealing with Susan's departure. Meanwhile, on the planet Dido, a crippled man and a teenager are the sole survivors of a ship. And soon one group will meet the other. The weekday broadcasts will air at 7:30AM Eastern. Monday they will air episode 7 of Doctor Who And The Silurians. The Doctor tries to stop a plague that threatens all of humanity. Tuesday through Friday the first 4 episodes of The Ambassadors of Death will air. A space mission has gone awry, and 3 astronauts come back to Earth profoundly changed. But are they the astronauts? The Silurians will air in the Black and White version. Most of Ambassadors is only broadcastable in Black and White, so it will air that way too.
