The weekend broadcasts of 'The Who-Files' present the famous origin story of the Daleks. The 4th Doctor is ordered by the Time Lords to alter history: either change the nature of the Daleks, learn about some weakness they have, so prevent their existence. This story also featured the first appearance of Davros, the crippled scientist who developed the Daleks. On the weekday broadcasts, enjoy more Dalek antics with Destiny of the Daleks, Resurrection of the Daleks, and Revelation of the Daleks. Remember that Ressurection and Revelation were filmed in roughly 45 minute episodes, so they will run to about 12:15AM each night. Set the appropriate amount of time on the VCR.
