Four countries in this region screened Doctor Who in the 1960s:
With the Dominican Republic being a possible fifth.
In July 1985, BBC Enterprises attended a three-day television sales festival in Nassau, the Bahamas,
at which it sold Doctor Who to nine countries, a package worth a quarter of a million pounds (as was reported in the DWAS news-zine Celestial Toyroom, September 1985 issue).
Of those nine, only the following have been identified, with confirmed airdates:
- Bahamas
- Barbados (with cable feed to Saint Lucia)
- Trinidad & Tobago
Newspapers for other nations in the region have also been checked (such as Dominica), but many didn't have TV listings, or the relevant date range wasn't available. In all likelihood, the other Caribbean countries that bought Doctor Who at this time would have been those with English as an official language.
