Today In DOCTOR WHO History: January 17th

The Fourth Doctor's ABBA tribute band was still lacking a member...


Welcome to our daily round-up of the Doctor Who episodes which received their premiere broadcast on this day throughout the show's long history, along with anything else of note that may have taken place. You can click on any red text to read our full retrospectives/reviews for that episode, and note that all viewing figures listed are for UK broadcasts (unless otherwise stated).

January 17th 
Three episode threes for us to enjoy today, and no, don't worry, that's not a still from the big screen take on <shudder>Cats</shudder>! It's actually from Tom Baker's final season, which was equally disturbing at times. But before we get to that we have Spearhead From Space which was watched by 8.3 million viewers on this day in 1970. Six years later The Brain of Morbius drew an audience of 10.1 million, and finally in 1981 8.3 million tuned into Warriors' Gate.

Join us again tomorrow for another round-up of the episodes broadcast, the spin-offs aired, the special events, the birthday's celebrated and anything else of note that went down on this day in Doctor Who history.
