Stories bought and broadcast
TOM BAKER
The Polish version of WikiPedia: (POLISH DOCTOR WHO) says:
W Polsce widzowie mogli po raz pierwszy zobaczyć Doktora Who pod koniec lat 70. XX w., kiedy TVP1 pokazała dwa niekanoniczne filmy kinowe o jego przygodach (Doktor Who i Dalekowie oraz Inwazja Daleków). Na początku lat 90. XX w. jedna z prywatnych stacji telewizyjnych wyemitowała kilkanaście odcinków z Tomem Bakerem w roli czwartej inkarnacji tytułowej postaci. W 1997 r. TVP1 pokazała film telewizyny BBC Doctor Who z 1996 r.
This translates as:
In Poland, viewers could see Doctor Who at the end of the 1970s when TVP1 showed two non-canonical motion pictures about his adventures (Dr Who and the Daleks, and Dalek Invasion). In the early 1990s a private television station aired a few episodes with Tom Baker as the fourth incarnation of the title character. In 1997, TVP1 showed the 1996 TV Movie version of the series.
It is not known what "private station" this is, as no private TV stations are recorded in the 1990 World Radio Television Handbook.
It is not known which Tom Baker stories would have been screened, 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.
