Doctor Who reaches 47 years
by Doc on Nov.23, 2010, under Television
The Doctor may be 907 years old (give or take – continuity is a problem with time travel…), but his show is 47 years old today. The very first episode of Doctor Who, “An Unearthly Child”, aired on the BBC on November 23rd, 1963 at 5:15PM GMT, running continuously for 26 years, [sfs=1083]a TV movie in 1996[/sfs], and has since been revived with 5 more series and several TV movies. What would be an appropriate drink to toast the Doctor?
