+It was one of the few broadcasters outside the [[British Broadcasting Corporation]] itself to screen episodes from all the Doctors' eras at the time of their original release. Along with the [[CBC]], [[BBCA]] and [[Fox Broadcasting Company|FOX]], it was one of the few broadcasters in the world to co-produce an episode of ''Doctor Who'', since it helped fund ''[[The Five Doctors (TV story)|The Five Doctors]]''.
