YMMV / Doctor Who S15 E1 "Horror of Fang Rock"

• Overshadowed by Controversy: In America, the serial is primarily remembered nowadays for a 1987 re-run in Chicago being hijacked for ninety seconds by a guy in a Max Headroom mask (who had previously hijacked part of a WGN-TV newscast earlier that night). The hijacker was never caught. The incident has become so intertwined with the episode that even the unofficial Doctor Who wiki devotes a lengthy portion of the article on the story to the hijacking.
