Sun-Mon 6:25PM The Sensorites eps 5 - 6 of 6 (Kidnap, A Desperate Venture)
Never before seen in New Zealand. The Doctor searches for the source of the poisoned water, uncovering conspiracies and hidden information on the way.
Tue-Thu 6:25PM Planet of Giants eps 1 - 3 of 3 (Planet Of Giants, Dangerous Journey, Crisis)
Last seen in New Zealand in 1968. Good news - the TARDIS is on Earth. Bad news - it's tiny, and it's shrunk everyone to scale. Impressive visual work for the era.

Last seen in New Zealand in 1991. The TARDIS makes it to London, which is now deserted and in ruins.
