There’s a general mood of celebration today as we reach the 49th anniversary of the first episode of Doctor Who being transmitted. This may be merely a taster for the excitement that 2013 will bring, but even the BBC has been infected with the positive mood. Today they focus on the expansion of the official site and the first few Hartnell stories. Check out the details of the revamped site HERE.

Let’s all pause for thought this evening and remember when we too saw An Unearthly Child for the first time!
