June 5th
The third part of The Chase (titled Flight Through Eternity) was broadcast on this day in 1965 and watched by 9 million viewers. Two regenerations and six years later, and we have part three of The Dæmons drawing an audience of 8.1 million. Then, I don't know much about art but I know what I like - it's Vincent and the Doctor, which was broadcast in 2010 at 6:41pm and watched by 6.76 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.
