Report from the This Week in Doctor Who Archive:

Friday 4th January 2002:
UKTV http://www.varos.com/drwho/uktv/
Sun 7AM, Late Sun 1AM AEDT The Kings' Demons both eps
Hailed as Demons, the 5th Doctor, Tegan, and Turlough bring divisiveness and fear to the nobility in 1215 England. Can anyone help King John see sense, get rid of these demons, and sign the Magna Carta?
Sun 8AM, Late Sun 2AM AEDT The Five Doctors 4 pt version, all 4 eps
The first 4 Doctors are ripped out of time, destabilizing the 5th Doctor and starting off a wild race through the Death Zone on Gallifrey. The prize - immortality. The cost - astronomical. With guest appearances from a Dalek, two Cybermen armies, a Yeti, the Master, and others. In theory, UKTV could air the original 90 minute version of this story instead, but as of press time the 4 pt version was on the schedule.
