KBTC
Channel 27 (PBS) (KTPS, 1961-1992)
Channel 62 (PBS) (KBTC, 1992- )
- May 1987: Aired Robot as part of a pledge break.
- September 1987: The Tom Baker episodes began properly.
- 1993: The 24 repackaged Jon Pertwee stories aired.
- 9 October 1995: The first instalment (i.e. "The Mysterious Planet" segment) of The Trial of a Time Lord airs from 9pm to 11pm. This is followed by a further but unidentified omnibus running for only 90 minutes.
- 1995 onwards: KBTC is one of the only (if not THE only?) PBS stations to still be screening the pre-2005 episodes on a regular basis.
- 24 January 1998: The station holds a "marathon" starting at 7pm during which it aired The Tomb of the Cybermen and The Curse of Fenric.
- They are still screening Classic episodes going into 2021, with Colin Baker stories.
- 16 October 2021: The run cycles back to William Hartnell and An Unearthly Child...
- As 2022 arrives, the repeat run has cycled around, and is once again back to the early William Hartnell stories...
