May 20th
We start today back in 1967 for episode 1 of the Second Doctor story The Evil of the Daleks, this installment was watched by 8.1 million viewers and just like parts 3 to 7 it's now sadly missing from the archives. Then in 1972 we have part one of the Third Doctor story The Time Monster drawing an audience of 7.6 million.
That's two classic Who for you, so how about two modern Who? First it's 2006's The Age of Steel, a story watched by 7.64 million viewers. Then the Twelfth Doctor adventure Extremis premiered in 2017 at 7:27pm to an audience of 5.53 million viewers.
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.
