- 8 October - Episode 4 of The Tenth Planet was taped, with the first scenes filmed being the regeneration from William Hartnell to Patrick Troughton.
- 22 October - Episode 1 of The Power of the Daleks was taped; this was the first full episode featuring Patrick Troughton.
- 12 December - The BBC Audience Research Dept. filed an Audience Research Report on The Power of the Daleks Episode 3, reporting that satisfaction in the episode ranked at 44% with response to new Doctor Patrick Troughton being particularly mixed.[2]
