The '''[[wikipedia:Canary Islands|CANARY ISLANDS]]''' are an island group in the Atlantic ocean off the west coast of Africa; they are an autonomous territory of [[Spain]].

The eight main islands are (from largest to smallest in area) Tenerife, Fuerteventura, Gran Canaria, Lanzarote, La Palma, La Gomera, El Hierro and La Graciosa.

==[[Peter Cushing|Peter Cushing]] and the Daleks==
The first of the two Dalek movies had its true Spanish premiere on the islands a month prior to the mainland. This was at the Cine Avenida on the [[Wikipedia:Gran Canaria|Gran Canaria island]] (Grand Canary Island) on Wednesday, '''28 December 1966'''.

==Canary Islands in Doctor Who==
*[[Planet of Fire]] was filmed and partially set on Lanzarote.
*Several of the [[New Series]] episodes have also been filmed on the islands - on Lanzarote ('''Kill the Moon'''), Tenerife or Fuerteventura ('''The Magician's Apprenrice / The Witch's Familiar''', '''The Zygon Invasion / The Zygon Inversion''', '''Hell Bent'''.)

 Gran Canaria is the third-largest but the second-most-populous island; it's very likely that the movie was also screened on Tenerife, which has the highest population.
