Wednesday 21st November 2001:
WQED/WQEX 13,16 Pittsburgh, PA http://www.wqed.org/
Sat 11PM-1AM EST Spearhead From Space all 4 eps
(start and end times approximate - pledge special. Logopolis episodes 3+4 will air on December 15.)
Quick guess - the Spearhead From Space DVD will be among the pledge premiums.
The first color story. The one that changed the rules of the series. Modern day Earth. Modern day threat. A companion who may be as smart as the Doctor. And a classic car. The era of the 3rd Doctor begins. With Nicholas Courtney as The Brigadier.
