February 14th
It's Valentine's Day, and back in 1970 7.5 million fans were showing their love for the Third Doctor when episode three of Doctor Who And The Silurians was first broadcast. One change of face later and two stories for you, both, again, part three of their respective tales. 1976 saw The Seeds Of Doom draw an audience of 10.3 million, and in 1981 The Keeper Of Traken had 5.2 million viewers.
