''[[The Evil of the Daleks (TV story)|The Evil of the Daleks]]'' was the first ''Doctor Who'' serial to be repeated in its entirety. This occurred between [[June (releases)|June]] and [[August (releases)|August]] [[1968 (releases)|1968]], when the serial was aired to fill the gap between [[Season 5|seasons 5]] and [[Season 6|6]], with a two-week break between episodes three and four to accommodate the BBC's extended coverage of the Wimbledon tennis tournament. Unlike most reruns, the repeat was actually worked into the narrative of the series, by having the [[Second Doctor]] present the event to the new [[companion]] [[Zoe Heriot]] via a telepathic projector hidden behind one of the roundels of the console room. For the repeats, episode one had an added voice-over by [[Patrick Troughton]] and [[Wendy Padbury]] immediately after the opening title sequence referring back to the fact that this was being "shown" to Zoe. | |||
