5th September 1964: birth of Stephen Greenhorn, writer of The Lazarus Experiment (2007) and The Doctor's Daughter (2008).
also 5th September 1964: broadcast of "A Bargain of Necessity", fifth episode of the story we now call The Reign of Terror. Ian is rescued; the Doctor attempts to rescue Susan; but is forced to cooperate with Lemaitre instead.
We agree pretty much on these, too. Though I would put Miéville on the “dislike” side of the divide.
