Satellite station British Satellite Broadcasting (BSB) was established in 1986.
Doctor Who aired on BSB's Galaxy Channel, from 1 April to 1 December 1990.
A special Doctor Who Weekend aired 22-23 September 1990, presented in part by John Nathan-Turner, and featuring in-studio interviews with Sylvester McCoy, Carole Ann Ford, Elisabeth Sladen, Peter Purves, Wendy Padbury, Terrance Dicks, Bob Baker & Dave Martin, Barry Newbery, Raymond Cusick, Pat Godfrey, Peter Hawkins, Mervyn Haisman, Nicholas Courtney, William Russell, Jennie Linden, John Freeman (of DWM) and Waris Hussein. Pre-recorded interviews with Jon Pertwee, Frazer Hines and Deborah Watling also featured. (Galaxy's regular 31 West programme was dubbed 31 Who for the weekend.)
On 2 November 1990, BSB merged with SKY, and rebranded as BSkyB. As a result, the December 1990 schedule of Doctor Who episodes was brought to a sudden end, midway through The Daleks.
