After a seven-year gap since the BBC cancelled the original series, Fox premieres Doctor Who: The Movie as its Tuesday Night Movie (and, if ratings prove to be a success story, a backdoor pilot for a series). Depicting the seventh Doctor’s regeneration into the eighth (Paul McGann), this is effectively the 698th episode of Doctor Who, and guest stars Yee Jee Tso and Eric Roberts as the Master. US ratings ultimately prove to be a disappointment, and this remains the only televised adventure of the eighth Doctor (though this incarnation of the Time Lord is carried forward in novels, comics and audio stories). Doctor Who does not make a full return to TV until 2005.
