==Population==
 
 
 
When '''Doctor Who''' screened in Malaysia in 1986-87, the population was 11,580,000, and licensed black and white TV sets numbered 1,040,000; colour sets numbered 288,000 (per [[WRTH]], 1984).
 
 
 
==TV & system==
 
 
 
Malaysia began its television service in 1963.
 
 
 
There is just one television station: '''Radio Television Malaysia''', a government-owned commercial broadcaster, which operated two channels: Network I and Network II. '''Doctor Who''' aired on both channels.
 
 
 
Malaysian viewers could also receive transmissions from [[Singapore]] and Borneo.
 
 
 
Colour transmissions began in 1972 using the [[Wikipedia:PAL|PAL]] colour broadcast system.
 
 
 
==Language/s==
 
 
 
The main languages of Malaysia are Malay, English, and XXXX, XXX. The ‘’Straits Times’’ says "All programmes in Malay unless otherwise stated" - '''Doctor Who''' was broadcast in English (possibly also with Malay subtitles.)
 
 
 
 
 
=='''DOCTOR WHO IN MALAYSIA'''==
 
 
 
Malaysia was the 58th country to screen '''Doctor Who''' (see [[Selling Doctor Who]]).
 
 
 
==[[BBC Records]]==
 
 
 
'''The Eighties''' (The Eighties The Lost Chapters) records a sale of '''eight''' stories (by 10 February 1987). However, only '''seven''' stories are listed as being broadcast. Therefore, '''eight''' is either an error, or one story was sold but did not screen.
 
 
 
Malaysia is not identified in any of the '''DWM''' story Archives.
 
 
 
==Stories bought and broadcast==
 
 
 
===[[Tom Baker stories|TOM BAKER]]===

Malaysia bought part of GROUPs XXXX and XXX, then GROUP ONE of the [[Tom Baker stories]].
 
 
 
The programme was supplied as PAL colour video tapes with English soundtracks, presumably through [[BBC Sydney]].
 
 
 
==Transmission==
 
 
 
===[[Tom Baker stories|TOM BAKER]]===
 
 
 
Malaysia TV operated Networks One and Two. Doctor Who screened on Network Two (aka MALAYSIA TWO) for its first run, then on Network One (Malaysia One) for its second run
 
 
 
LOTS TO ADD HERE - FULL ANALYSIS OF SCREENINGS
 
 
 
There is no record that Malaysia screened '''Doctor Who''' again.
 
 
 
==TV listings==
 
TV listings have been obtained from three newspapers ''Malay Mail'', ''Borneo Bulletin'' and ''The Singapore Straits Times (Malaysia Edition)''.
 
 
 
TV listings in the Malay Mail and Borneo Bulletin give the full week, but the dates of the two papers don't always match and sometimes are out by two weeks - it seems that the Mail listed programmes two weeks ahead whereas the Bulletin seem to be for the following week… However, the Straits Times gives more accurate listings details, and is therefore listed separately.
 
 
 
Some ''Mail'' and ''Bulletin'' listings merely say "Children's Programmes" for the timeslot that '''Doctor Who''' normally would screen.
 
 
 
The ''Straits Times'' says "All programmes in Malay unless otherwise stated" - '''Doctor Who''' is listed as being broadcast in English.
