February 18th
It's a bit of a quiet day in Doctor Who history, with just two episodes receiving their premiere broadcast. The first came in 1967 when episode 2 of the Second Doctor adventure The Moonbase drew an audience of 8.9 million viewers. And the other one arrived on this day in 1978. What was it you cry? Well I shall tell you. It was part three of The Invasion Of Time and it was watched by 9.5 million people. 

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.
