Report from the This Week in Doctor Who Archive:

Friday 29th December 2000:
UKTV Australia http://www.varos.com/drwho/uktv/
No weekend airings. As of publication time, it was unclear what UKTV was doing with the show from 1 January on. If Doctor Who airs on 1 January, the probable schedule is:
Mon-Wed 11:30PM AEDT Genesis of the Daleks eps 4 - 6 of 6
Thu-Fri 11:30PM AEDT Revenge of the Cybermen eps 1 - 2 of 4
If Doctor Who does not air on 1 January, the probable schedule is:
Tue-Thu 11:30PM AEDT Genesis of the Daleks eps 4 - 6 of 6
Fri 11:30PM AEDT Revenge of the Cybermen ep 1 of 4


[update 29 Dec John P Darcy] The schedule as printed in the Janaury
Foxtel Magazine is as follows:
Mon 1 Jan: none
Tue 2 Jan: Genesis of the Daleks 4
Wed 3 Jan: Genesis of the Daleks 5
Thu 4 Jan: Genesis of the Daleks 6
Fri 5 Jan: Revenge of the Cybermen 1

All of the above at 23:30 AEDT

Sun 7 Jan 0700: The Ark in Space 1-4
0900: The Sontaran Experiment 1-2
Mon 8 Jan 0100: The Ark in Space 1-4
0300: The Sontaran Experiment 1-2

Note that the last item in the list above is misprinted in the magazine as 1:30am.

For the rest of January the schedule is back to the normal weekly pattern. Hence Sunday 28 Jan is an omnibus of Terror of the Zygons, and Wednesday Jan 31 is The Android Invasion 3. If there is any substantial change to the scheduling before they reach The Leisure Hive, I shall be very cross on tape-library-completion grounds :)
