WPTT

Channel 22 (independent)


  • In the 16 August 1978 issue of Variety magazine (see United States--1978), "PITTSBURGH" is named as one of 17 cities to have bought the series. WPTT may have been one of the very first US stations to screen the Tom Baker stories. (The station itself first went to air on 26 or 29 September 1978) However no airdates can be found in 1978 or 1979.
  • The station also listed in the August 1981 Celestial Toyroom, North American edition as having bought the newly-created omnibus versions.
