Report from the This Week in Doctor Who Archive:

Wednesday 23rd December 1998:
FOXTEL's UK-TV - http://www.foxtel.com.au/
Saturday at 1PM, Sunday at 2 and 8AM - Terror of the Autons - all 4 episodes
Monday through Thursday at 11:30PM - The Dæmons - episodes 2 to 5 of 5 Friday at 11:30PM - ?

FOXTEL airs Terror and Daemons, the bookends for the 8th Series of Doctor Who, where the Master was the villain in all 5 stories. These episodes have had the colour restored on prints that are available worldwide, but UK-TV is airing them in black & white. Due to the early publication this week, I do not know what the Friday episode is.
