German TV channel ZDF considered to order the series in 1968. After watching the episode 'The Ice Warriors', the executives rejected the series and criticized several aspects, such as the costumes, the sets and even the scripts. Despite that, Doctor Who could still be watched in certain regions in Germany through the military channel BFBS (British Forces Broadcasting Service), but only in English. In November 1989, RTL Plus started to broadcast the entire Sylvester McCoy era, beginning with Doctor Who: Time and the Rani: Part One (1987). When the BBC canceled the series, RTL Plus had a lack of interest to show any of the previous seasons. Later, the series went to VOX, where they broadcast the entire Colin Baker era and Doctor Who: The Five Doctors (1983), with rebroadcasting of the McCoy era. In 2014, Polyband started the German DVD release of those seasons and later added the TV movie Doctor Who (1996), which was previously available on VHS. Since 2017, starting with "The Caves of Androzani", Polyband is releasing several of the classic episodes that were previously unseen in Germany, complete with a German audio track.
