 "Place of Angels" had its first UK network broadcast on 29 April 1994 on BBC2.The broadcast was delayed by ten minutes due to over-running live coverage of the World Snooker Championship semi-final between Steve Davis and Stephen Hendry.Anthony Clark of "sci-fi-online.com" describes the plot of "Place of Angels" as "not great" but regards it as better-paced than that of "Flight 104".
