Sat 1PM, Sun 2+8AM AEDT Genesis of the Daleks (#2 story) all 6 eps
A Time Lord convinces the Doctor to go back into Skaro's past to alter the history of the Daleks. Either the nature of the Daleks must be changed, a weakness must be found, or the Daleks must never be allowed to exist. Can the Doctor really change history? Or is he actually creating the reality that he has been told to unmake.
Mon-Thu 11:30PM AEDT '' (#1 story) eps 1 - 4 of 4 (confirmed as The Five Doctors)
The wait is over Monday. Which story most interested Canadian viewers? Episode 2 will air on 23 November, the anniversary day for the series. Well, it was 24 November Australian Time, but that's okay. Doctor Who should return to weekdays in either late January or early February. (end of weekday episodes)
