Report from the This Week in Doctor Who Archive:

Friday 16th April 1999:
WQED / WQEX 13, 16 Pittsburgh, PA http://www.wqed.org/
Saturday at 11PM EDT The Pyramids Of Mars episode 4 of 4
Immediately Afterwards - The Keys of Marinus: The Snows of Terror episode 4 of 6

In "Pyramids", Sutekh escapes his prison, but not before the 4th Doctor gets an idea. Then flip back to the very first season. Ian and Barbara search for Sabetha, Altos, Susan, and the 3rd key of Marinus in a region of frozen tundra. Their only hope is a hunter / trapper, who is slightly less trustworthy than a Dalek.
