DOCTOR WHO IN THE BAHAMAS

BBC Records

The Bahamas are not identified in any available BBC records. It was reported in the September 1975 issue of Celestial Toyroom that the series had been sold to nine Caribbean countries, although those nine are not named.


Stories bought and broadcast

It is not known what stories aired, but given that a package of assorted Tom Baker stories screened weeks apart in Barbados and Trinidad & Tobago from late 1985, it is more than likely that the Bahamas aired – or at least some of – the same package.


TOM BAKER?

Unknown

These programmes would have been supplied as NTSC colour video tapes.


Transmission

The series started on Thursday, 26 June 1986, at 6.30pm. It aired for 21 weeks, and was replaced by the UK comedy Butterflies from 20 November.

The fact that only 21 episodes aired suggests that there was at least one pre-emption during the run, or additional episodes screened without being billed.

There is no clear record that Bahamas screened Doctor Who again.


TV listings

TV listings have been obtained from the newspaper Nassau Tribune.

Listings gave the series name as Dr Who. The timeslot was 6.30 to 7.00 for all episodes.

The Bahamas in Doctor Who

There are no instances where Bahamas is mentioned in the series.
