Tue-Wed 6PM GMT Terror of the Autons eps 1 - 2 of 4 (actually confirmed as 1-3)
Suave. Sophisticated. Smart. Utterly ruthless. An old friend of the Doctor's comes to Earth to kill him and take over the planet. A friend known as ... The Master. I don't know if they were sold the Black & White version or the Colour one, but they were sold the Black & White version of Silurians. Episode 1 airs at the same time as the BBC2 broadcast of Silurians ep 5, and these two terrestrial stations have some overlapping viewing areas.
