| − | =='''Summary'''==
| |
| − | '''Saskatchewan''' was the only province to play a brief run of repeats after the first 26 episodes had concluded on Friday, 2 July 1965. (A full list of the Saskatchewan stations is tabulated on the main [[CBC]] page.)
| |
| | | | |
| − | We've already noted on the main [[CBC]] profile page, this repeat run may have been scheduled simply to use up the planned and already-paid for but ultimately dropped '''"best of Doctor Who"''' that was intended to play across the entire network during summer vacation time.
| |

| |
| − | =='''AIRDATES'''==
| |
| − | The two leading newspapers of Saskatchewan for that era are the ''Saskatoon Star-Phoenix'' and the ''Regina Leader-Post''. Both newspapers agree that about nine '''Doctor Who''' episodes were broadcast by privately-owned station CFQC Saskatoon on weekdays over a two week period from Monday, '''5 July 1965''' to Friday, '''16 July 1965'''. As CFQC had already aired all 26 episodes purchased by the CBC by '''2 July 1965''', the station must have shown repeats. Unfortunately, what episodes were repeated is not known.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | (Given that only nine episodes appear to have aired, and that it's unlikely the repeats would have been dropped midway through a serial, it could only have been one of the two 7-parters -- [[The Daleks]] or [[Marco Polo]] -- partnered with [[Inside the Spaceship]].)
| |
| − |
| |
| − | As the CBC did not own any stations in Saskatchewan in 1965 it is not clear which CBC station supplied the material. The most likely source is station CBWT Winnipeg, possibly using kinescope films returned to Winnipeg base from station CBWBT Flin Flon. CBWT Winnipeg was the Prairies Regional Headquarters for the CBC and was a distribution point for content throughout the Canadian Prairies.

| − | ====Fate of the Prints?====
| |
| − | After the brief run of repeats in Saskatchewan, the prints would have been returned to CBC's head office in Toronto.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Depending on whether these were acquired from the kinescope bicycle network or were the original BBC film recordings sent over from Toronto, and whether or not they were cut with timing edits, these prints were either destroyed, or were sent to another foreign broadcaster.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | A likely candidate for receiving the ex-CBC prints is [[Trinidad & Tobago]], which was the first country in the [[:category:Caribbean|Caribbean]] to air the series, and commenced the run a few months later in October 1965. (Trinidad TV used [[TIE Ltd|Television International Enterprises Ltd]] as its programme purchasing agent; CBC Toronto may have sent the prints to TIE's office in New York rather than to the broadcaster directly.)
| |
| − |
| |
| − | An alternative is that the 26 prints went from Toronto to the island of [[Bermuda]], which was one of just three countries to have only screened those same five Hartnell serials; the series commenced airing there in December 1965.
| |

| |
| − | ==TV listings==
| |
| − | Based on newspaper listings from the ''Saskatoon Star-Phoenix'' and the ''Regina Leader-Post'' it is possible that other Saskatchewan stations may have aired repeats, such as station CKBI Prince Albert. More corroborating newspaper sources are required with the search expanded to review newspaper listings for the smaller centers such as Prince Albert, Swift Current, Yorkton, etc.
