DOCTOR WHO (DOKTOR KIM) IN TURKEY
BBC Records
Turkey is not named in any of our main BBC Records sources.
The only reference to Turkey possibly screening Doctor Who was in DWM issue #52 (May 1981), in which a reader states: "Turkey has had the Doctor Who series for many years now but apparently the show goes out over there under the banner of "comedy"".
Given the 1981 publication date, and that colour broadcasts did not commence until 1984, any episodes of Doctor Who would have been in black and white, which probably rules out these being Tom Baker stories. (However, since early Tom Baker stories did air as black and white in Zimbabwe in 1980/81, it is not entirely impossible for Turkey to have aired Bakers rather than, say, Pertwees...)
Novelisations
Remzi Kitabevi of Istanbul published seven of the early Hartnell, Troughton and Pertwee Target novelisations in 1975:
- Doktor Kim ve Dalekler (The Daleks) (The Daleks)
- Doktor Kim ve Sibermenler (The Cybermen) (The Moonbase)
- Doktor Kim ve Korkunc Karadamlari (The Scary 'Karadamlari') (The Abominable Snowmen)
- Doktor Kim ve Otonlar (The Autons) ((Spearhead from Space)
- Doktor Kim ve Gizli Silah (The Secret Weapon) (Colony in Space)
