Sun 6:30PM The Seeds of Death ep 6 of 6
Last rerun in New Zealand in 1991. The 2nd Doctor has one last plan to stop the Ice Warrior invasion - beep beep beep.
Mon-Fri 6:30PM The War Games eps 1 - 5 of 10
Never before televised in New Zealand. The 2nd Doctor's last story. World War I is underway, but something just isn't quite right. More twists and turns than a twisty turny thing, and I better not say what they are, because most of you probably haven't seen this one yet.
