MOZAMBIQUE is a former-Portuguese colony (until 1975) in southern Africa. The main language spoken is Portuguese.
Doctor Who was not available on any local TV stations.
It's possible that the second Peter Cushing Dalek film played in cinemas while the colony was still under Portuguese rule, as the subtitled version had been released in Portugal from 1968.
Also released in Portugal were translated editions of several of the Target novels. The publisher Editorial Presença did have distribution rights in other Portuguese-speaking territories, which means the books may have also been sold in Mozambique.
From 1999, BBC Prime was available on Canal 19 in the Mozambique capital, Maputo. It's not known if Doctor Who was seen on the southern Africa feed as that had a different schedule to BBC Prime's European and Northern African feeds which did carry the series.
The Paul McGann TV Movie was shown several times on the South African-based satellite station Sci-Fi Channel Southern Africa during 2002 and 2003; this satellite station was available on Canal 21 in Maputo.
Although Portuguese is the principal language of Mozambique, programmes on SCIFISA were not subtitled or dubbed.
