Events

1 - Professor Bernice Summerfield arrived on Guernsey, in the English Channel. (BFBS: Just War)
20 - Jack Harkness and Toshiko Sato met the real Jack Harkness at The Ritz. Tosh sent a message for Torchwood Three containing her half of the Rift Manipulator formula to bring her and Jack back. (TW: Captain Jack Harkness)
21 - The Ninth Doctor traced a Chula ambulance (thought to be a warship) to London, where he found a boy called Jamie, who had been partially resurrected by nanogenes. Jamie pursued the Doctor, Rose and Captain Jack Harkness after Jack set off emergency protocols, unleashing an army of people made to be just like Jamie searching for the boy's mother. Nancy told Jamie after lying for so long that she was his mother, and not his sister. As a result, the nanogenes repaired both Jamie and the infectees back to normal. Jack began travelling in the TARDIS after the Doctor and Rose saved his life. (DW: The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances)

The Eleventh Doctor and Amy Pond were summoned to the Cabinet War Rooms in London by British Prime Minister Winston Churchill. The Doctor discovered the Daleks were working for Churchill. Increasingly frustrated by their charade as "soldiers", he stated his name to them. This testimony unwittingly activated the Progenitor, awakening the New Dalek Paradigm who killed the older Daleks. The new Daleks then distracted the Doctor by arming their robot Bracewell with a bomb that would destroy the Earth. The Doctor saved the Earth, but the Daleks escaped. (DW: Victory of the Daleks)

26 - Richard Dawkins, ethologist, evolutionary biologist and popular science writer and husband to Lalla Ward, who had a cameo as himself in DW: The Stolen Earth, is born in Nairobi, Kenya.
