Beginning November 2
William Hartnell (above), the original Doctor Who, set the stage for all of the other Doctors. Hartnell stars in The Time Meddler, the first of 11 Doctor Who Time Lords episodes to be aired beginning November 2. Hartnell has his hands full trying to stop the Monk's atomic bazookas.
Through the magic of regeneration (and imagination!), The Doctor is able to materialize in other time frames, in other forms. He appears in the form of Patrick Troughton as The Doctor in The War Games (November 9 and 16). His intergalactic vehicle, the Tardis, takes him to an alien planet where soldiers from many periods in history engage in fierce battle. Their aim is to form an invincible army. The Doctor calls on the Time Lords for help. In The Deadly Assassin (November 23), Tom Baker stars as The Doctor, who tries to avert the murder of the Time Lords' president.
Don't miss double Doctor night (November 30) which features two Doctor Who episodes, starting at 8:00 pm. The Five Doctors is a chilling Death Zone reunion of five actors who have played The Doctor, and The Invasion of Time (10:00 pm) stars Tom Baker as Doctor Who who, as President of the Time Lords, shocks everyone and turns traitor.
