Doctor Who Weekend (BSB)
The Doctor Who Weekend was a programming event on the British Satellite Broadcasting's Galaxy Channel that ran from 22nd to 23rd September 1990. It was a tribute to the first ten years of Doctor Who. It contained 12 different serials starring William Hartnell, Patrick Troughton and Jon Pertwee, along with the two Peter Cushing movies, a couple of documentaries, and the studio magazine programme, 31 Who.
For many viewers, it was the first opportunity many fans had to view bits of missing episodes from the Second Doctor's era. Notably, the weekend included standalone viewings of episode two of The Abominable Snowmen and episode one of The Web of Fear. Because the weekend predated the widespread availability of Doctor Who on home video, it also likely represented the first occasion on which many viewers saw many complete adventures from the 1960s.
Among those serials transmitted during the event were: An Unearthly Child, The Edge of Destruction, The Space Museum, The Dominators and The Three Doctors.
