Report from the This Week in Doctor Who Archive:

Friday 6th November 1998:
FOXTEL's UK-TV - cable
Saturday at 1PM, Sunday at 2 and 8AM - The Deadly Assassin - all 4 episodes
Monday through Thursday at 11:30PM - The Invasion of Time - episodes 3 to 6 of 6
Friday at 11:30PM - Mawdryn Undead - episode 1 of 4

Weekend viewers can watch the classic 4th Doctor adventure that changed the face of Gallifrey. The story so shocked the audience and censors that the series wound up moving to a later time slot (after 5 weeks off the air). Most of the weekdays feature The Invasion of Time, where the 4thDoctor became President of Gallifrey, with tragic results. Friday sees the beginning of Mawdryn Undead, the reunion story between the 5th Doctor, the Brigadier, and the Brigadier?
