    I was born 13 days after part 4 of "The Android Invasion" which was also 8 days before part 1 of "The Brain of Morbius".

    I was between parts 1 and 2 of 'The Time Warrior'.

    This thread puts me in mind of the Tin Dog podcast. The guy who runs it does "Whostrolgies" on eBay to fund the podcast where you can get an astrology reading based on the episodes nearest your birth. :)

    I was born before it started!

    So my nearest is An Unearthly Child.

    People complain about having to wait months between episodes - I had to wait over 7 blooming years before the first episode!!

    I remember sitting in my pram and thinking "Come on BBC get your finger out" :)

    The day before Part 5 of the Mind Robber, the shortest ever regular episode.

    Similar case for me, it ended just two days short of a month before I was born (I'm assuming from your post you were born on the 10th of June; I popped out on the 8th).

    You're two days older than me! How nice!

    Missed Survival Part Three by about 3 months. :(

    Somewhere there's danger, somewhere there's injustice, and somewhere else the tea's getting cold!

    More like

    "Somewhere there's danger, somewhere there's injustice, and somewhere else there's a bun in the oven!" ;)

    in your case, CNA! (Nice to hear from you. how's the watching of old Who going?)

    Good Lord. That's the mentalest thing I have ever heard. Is that true?!

    Well I was born between seasons 9 & 10 - but nearer 10 so I'm Ep 1 of The Three Doctors too...

    Don't remember anything until The Sontaran Experiment though...

    Well I was born two days before Ep 7 ( The Rescue - episode title ) of the first Dalek story - either the Mutants or The Dead Planet.
    Which was Broadcast on Feb 1st 1964. So I only missed the first ten episodes!!!!!

    Waaaaaaah!!!

    Reasonably glad I'm not the oldest Who-o-phile on this thread -

    Hi Vabosity, ductur and Urban Bassman.

    So between the end of Pertwees last series and Tom Bakers first.

    Nearest episode would be Planet of the spiders part 6, but the first episode broadcast after I was born was Robot part 1 - which is quite spooky as 'The Giant Robot' was the first ever Doctor who book I read.
    I still remember it causing much hilarity at school as one of the chapters was called 'The Kidnapping of Sarah', and the girl I sat next to at said school was called 'Sarah' - oh how we laughed! (but we were about 9 at the time!!)

    Looks like I was born in the gap between Pertwee and Baker, the episode closest to the day I was born is "Robot - Part One".

    :eek:

    Tom Baker was "my" Doctor until David Tennant came along.

    Feb '87 here.

    That's between The Ultimate Foe and Time and the Rani.

    I know the second of these is not particularly popular, but how's the first? I've never seen it.

    As you can see my my name, I was born 1 day before episode 1 of The Mutants in 1972. That's quite a scary title to have as a near date of birth story, were my parents trying to tell me something??!!!!Lol!

    As long as they are only Dr Who episodes and not some ritual :)

    Well, it's not bad. But it does contain possibly the most pretentious line in the history of Doctor Who.

    'There is nothing you can do to prevent the catharsis of spurious morality!'

    I think if somebody said that to me I'd be utterly stumped for a reply.

    Yes, it is!

    Obviously tongue-in-cheek, of course - don't think he can claim to genuinely predict the future! :D
