Sun 6:30PM The Three Doctors ep 4 of 4
Last rerun in 1986. The three Doctors must unite to stop Omega. This is the final acting performance of William Hartnell, the first Doctor, who would pass away in 1975.
Mon-Thu 6:30PM Carnival Of Monsters eps 1 - 4 of 4
Last rerun in 1986. On Inter Minor, a pair of entertainers come across a regime that frowns on frivolity and aliens. In 1926, a cruise ship sets sail in the Indian Ocean, never to reach its destination. On Drashinga Prime, two daddy Drashigs are teaching their baby Drashigs how to hunt. Amid it all, the TARDIS is trying to get to Metebelis III. A tasty story for post-Christmas festivities.
Fri 6:30PM Frontier In Space ep 1 of 6
Only previous NZ broadcast in 1986. After being attacked in space, a freighter reports that Draconians have violated the peace treaty, and that the Doctor and Jo are double agents. But what's the rest of the story?
