Television Stations / Channels
Peru commenced its television service on 17 January 1958.
By the late 1970s, there were four stations operating. We do not know on which of these Doctor Who aired.
Colour transmissions (using the NTSC format) were introduced by Televisión del Estado in 1976. The other stations followed suit in later years.
Language/s
The principal language of Peru is Spanish.
DOCTOR WHO IN PERU
In Spanish-language countries, the series was known as Doctor Misterio.

BroaDWcast became aware of screenings in the country from this BLOG, which says:
“Yo he sido fan de Doctor Who, la clásica serie británica de ciencia ficción, desde que era niño, cuando la daban en Canal 7.“
This translates as:
“I’ve been a fan of Doctor Who, the classic British science fiction series, ever since I saw it as a kid on Canal 7.”
The reference to Canal 7 (channel 7) does not help identify which broadcaster this was, as three of the four had a channel numbered Canal 7.
