So, what were you doing on Wednesday 26 September 1979? People in Canberra were watching a surprising amount of the test pattern. And, of course, Doctor Who, although I'm not certain which episode. Not to mention Harry Butler and The Inventors. And Community Billboard! For some reason this fascinated me as a child, especially the inexplicable cartoon of an English sheepdog that accompanied announcements about Housie.

Working in a bookshop, living in a bedsit, and not actually watching much telly, as far as I can recall, on account of not having a telly. However, I would have been looking forward to the first episode of City Of Death, and there was a university hall of residence in Mecklenburgh Square whither [livejournal.com profile] soren_nyrond and I used to repair once in a while, and they had a telly. So I may have seen it there.

This was the story which featured a line which would never be said by any contemporary or prospective Doctor: "Well, you're a beautiful woman, probably."
