Language/s Portuguese


Television Stations / Channels

Brazil began its television service in 1950.

Brazil's two main television networks are based in Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. But due to its vast size, Brazil is also serviced by nearly 60 privately-owned stations, each with very limited coverage; therefore Doctor Who would have screened on any one of these stations, many of which do not have TV listings in the major daily newspapers.

It is not known on which station Doctor Who aired.


DOCTOR WHO (DOUTOR WHO) IN BRAZIL

250px

In Portuguese, the series was probably known as Doutor Who.


BBC Records

In DWM, Brazil is identified in 20 story Archives, all Tom Baker stories from his first four seasons 4A to 4Z, with the exception of three - 4C, 4L, 4S - which is probably an oversight rather than an indication that these three didn't air (the same three stories also omit Guatemala). The year of sale is given as 1979.


Stories bought and broadcast

TOM BAKER

23 stories, 98 episodes:




Brazil therefore bought the standard package of Tom Baker stories that was offered to the United States, Central and South America.

Time Life Inc was instrumental in the establishment of Brazil's largest broadcaster, Rede Globo (canal 4), a partnership which ended in 1968. Although Time Life was the main distributor to Spanish-South America, it's not clear whether they still had any influence within Brazil in the late 1970s; the package of tapes that Time Life had on offer were in NTSC, but Brazil broadcasts in the PAL format.



Transmission

TOM BAKER

We have no details about Doctor Who broadcasts in Brazil.


TV listings

A number of Brazilian newspapers have been accessed, from 1978 to 1981, but no listings for Doctor Who (or Doutor Who) have been found. Given the number of independent stations broadcasting in the country, not all had listings in the newspapers, so we have yet to identify if, when and where the series aired.



Novelisations

In 1975, a single novelisation was published in Brazil, by Global Editoria:


Brazil in Doctor Who

  • At the conclusion of The Green Death, Jo Grant and Cliff Jones were going to explore the Amazon.
  • In The Talons of Weng-Chiang, the Doctor tells Professor Litefoot that Leela had been found as a child floating down the Amazon in a hatbox!
  • Cessair of Diplos posed as Senhora Camara from Brazil (The Stones of Blood).
  • Brazil is "where the nuts come from"; George Cranleigh found the rare black orchid while on an expedition along the Orinoco River (Black Orchid).
  • The Doctor mentions the Amazon in Ghost Light.
