Another bit of WTTW news (Ch. 11, Chicago area):

During the current fund-raising activities, it was announced that WTTW had
purchased rights to some additional Dr. Who episodes, to add to their
existing stock (the existing WTTW shows are 1) most of the latter
half of Pertwee, 2) all of Tom Baker, and 3) all of Davidson (or is it
Davisson?)

The newly acquired shows are:
- a set of Hartnell episodes (~ mid-twenties or so 1/2 hour shows)
- a set of Troughton episodes (about same number, does this mean
    most of the Troughton shows?)
- Colin Baker's first season

There were about 60 or so ~ 1 hour (I meant 1 hour instead of 1/2 hour, above)
new shows, in all.  No word yet on when, or in what order these will be seen.
As WTTW is currently in the Romana I (Mary Tamm?) portion of Tom Baker's 
episodes (Key to Time series), my guess is that they will finish out
Tom Baker, show Davisson's three series, and then move right through
to Colin Baker.  Then, I'm guessing, they'll start at the beginning with
Hartnell and Troughton, and segue right into Pertwee.

Oh, I almost forgot.  Included in the new acquisitions are some
additional, older Pertwee episodes

Some good viewing ahead!
