Revision as of 04:05, 4 August 2011

POLAND is in Eastern Europe.

Profile

Country Number (N/K) 1990s THIRD WAVE
Region Europe
Television commenced 1953
Colour System 1972 SECAM
Colour System 1995 PAL
Language/s Polish Dubbed

Television Stations / Channels

Poland began its television service in 1953. There is just one television station: Telewizja Polska (TVP1)

Colour transmissions began in 1971 using the SECAM colour broadcast system that was common throughout Europe. TVP changed to the PAL system in 1995.

In Poland, foreign programmes are usually always dubbed.

By the 2000s, Poland had satellite stations. It was on digital station TELE5 (launched on 19 April 2002) that Doktor Who aired 2002 to 2003. (TELE 5 broadcast off the Astra-satellite, orbital position: 19,2° East, 10.832Ghz, horizontal, 27500Bytes)


DOCTOR WHO (DOKTOR WHO) IN POLAND

Poland was one of the last – at least ahead of Sweden – countries in Europe to screen the series (see Selling Doctor Who).

In Polish, the series was probably called Doktor Who.


BBC Records

Poland is not mentioned in The Seventies, The Handbook or DWM.

The Polish version of WikiPedia: (POLISH DOCTOR WHO) says:

W Polsce widzowie mogli po raz pierwszy zobaczyć Doktora Who w październiku 1979 r., kiedy TVP1 pokazała dwa niekanoniczne filmy kinowe o jego przygodach (Dr Who wśród Daleków oraz Inwazja Daleków). Na początku lat 90. XX w. jedna z prywatnych stacji telewizyjnych wyemitowała kilkanaście odcinków z Tomem Bakerem w roli czwartej inkarnacji Doktora. W 1997 r. TVP1 pokazała film telewizyny BBC Doctor Who z 1996 r.

This translates as:

In Poland, viewers could see Doctor Who in October 1979, when TVP1 showed two non-canonical motion picture adventures ("Dr Who and the Daleks" and "The Invasion of the Daleks"). In the early 1990s, one of the private television stations aired a few episodes with Tom Baker as the fourth incarnation of the Doctor. In 1997, TVP1 showed the 1996 BBC TV Movie "Doctor Who".

Panopticon Handbook – 40 Fabulous Facts

It is not known what "private station" this is, as no private TV stations are recorded in the 1990 World Radio Television Handbook.

Poland is mentioned as having aired the series in the 2003 Panopticon Convention souvenir handbook, under the 40 Fabulous Facts section: "Doctor Who has been shown in 66 countries around the world, from Abu Dhabi and Algeria, to Poland, Qatar, Taiwan and Zimbabwe". (The reference to 66 countries is out slightly – at best count, Polish was nearer the 70th mark...)

This would be in relation to the then-recent screenings of Tom Baker stories on the Polish satellite station TELE5, from early 2002 to mid-2003.

PETER CUSHING MOVIES

  • "Dr Who and the Daleks"
  • "Daleks Invasion Earth 2150 AD"


TOM BAKER

It is not known which Tom Baker stories would have been screened in the 1990s, but since the BBC always seemed to offer new purchasers Baker's first season - starting with Robot – it's likely these stories were the ones seen.

Four stories, 14 episodes?

4A Robot 4
4B The Sontaran Experiment 2
4C The Ark in Space 4
4D Revenge of the Cybermen 4


SYLVESTER McCOY

4F Terror of the Zygons 4
4H Planet of Evil 4
4G Pyramids of Mars 4

4L The Brain of Morbius 4

TELE5 appears to have purchased the same dubbed episodes that had been used by the other Polish station, plus additional episodes, which were either dubbed into Polish, or broadcast in English but with Polish "narration" voice-over.


Transmission

  • The two Peter Cushing Dalek movies aired on television in October 1979.
  • A run of Tom Baker stories aired in the early 1990s.
  • The 1996 Paul McGann TV Movie was screened by Filmnet. The sale of the film was reported in issue 235 (October 1996) of the DWAS newsletter Celestial Toyroom. Reportedly, Filmnet had the rights to screen the movie fifteen times!
  • From early 2002, the Polish satellite station TELE5 broadcast as many as 40 episodes from Tom Baker's first two seasons, with episodes in Polish, or English, but with Polish narration. These aired Saturdays and Sunday at varying times, at 8.30am or 9.30am. Several of the season 12 stories were repeated a number of times – these were probably the ones that had been fully dubbed rather than narrated - with the run (which took a break for a few months in late 2002 / early 2003) ending in August 2003.
