Sun 7AM, Late Sun 1AM AEST Meglos all 4 eps

But not this time, I will not fall into the same old narrative style again. I'm not going to do it this time. Almost every time I have done a ... AARGH! I did it again!
Mon 11:30PM AEST Black Orchid ep 2 of 2

Tue-Fri 11:30PM AEST Earthshock eps 1 - 4 of 4

This time, robotic killers stalk caves on Earth in the 26th Century, guarding a bomb and the secret of its owner. The identity of the beings in charge of the robots sent shockwaves through England in 1982, as did the plot twist at the end of episode 4.
