WALES is part of the United Kingdom. As such, it received BBC transmissions from London.
However, from time to time the network's regional station BBC Cymru altered its TV schedules to make way for local and regional programming, and series such as Doctor Who were sometimes shown on dates or times that were different to the rest of the network:
