48 years ago today, the BBC televised a daft little show about a man with a flying box. They didn't expect much; it was supposed to be an educational family show. It relied on string and staples for its special effects. Its main villain had a sink plunger attached to it. Yet, almost half a decade later, the show has become a national institution for Britain, an international phenomenon, and along with it has produced a fandom that spans three generations. 48 years ago today, the BBC televised Doctor Who.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DOCTOR WHO!!!
