The Who-Files are in their final weeks, as FOXTEL takes a look at Doctor Who historical stories. Over the weekend, the 1st Doctor, Ian, Barbara, and Susan visit the Aztecs. Barbara is mistaken for a god, and the Doctor becomes engaged! The weekday episodes begin with the second half of The Romans, a comedic historical story where the 1st Doctor and Vicki visit Emperor Nero, and Barbara winds up as his slave. Will the Doctor learn to play the liar, er, lyre before he gets to meet the lions. Later that week, the 4th Doctor and Sarah try to reach UNIT again. They get the planet and place right, but they got the time wrong. It's 1911, the year that Earth was destroyed...
