Whoniversaries 12 July

i) births and deaths

12 July 1933: birth of Brian Cant, who I knew as one of the great BBC children's presenters of the 1970s but before then had appeared in The Daleks' Master Plan (1965) as Kert Gantry and The Dominators (1968) as Tensa.

12 July 1980: birth of Tom Price (PC Andy in Torchwood).

12 July 1995: death of Gordon Flemyng, director of Dr. Who and the Daleks (1965) and Daleks' Invasion Earth: 2150 A.D. (1966)

ii) broadcast anniversaries

None.

iii) date almost specified in story

12 July 1966: It is roughly about this date that WOTAN starts getting active in The War Machines (1966) - four days before "C-Day". But more of that on Friday..

We were just watching The Dominators at the weekend. I didn't recognise Cant at first but went into squee as the credits rolled.

    UK mailboxes aren't waterproof?! That seems like an odd design.

    Now I know that "psephologist" is a word.

    That would make things less awkward.
