Report from the This Week in Doctor Who Archive:

Friday 27th November 1998:
FOXTEL's UK-TV - cable channel
Saturday at 1PM, Sunday at 2 and 8AM - The Five Doctors
Monday through Wednesday at 11:30PM - Genesis of the Daleks - episodes 4 to 6 of 6
Thursday and Friday at 11:30PM - Destiny of the Daleks - episodes 1 to 2 of 4

The Who-Files continue, with the 20th Anniversary story, the Dalek origin story, and Destiny of the Daleks all featured in the same week. This looks like the most extensive 'Whitman's Sampler' style approach to the series since the Lionheart PBS package of 1989-90. I just hope it doesn't end the same way.
