* The 15th anniversary of ''Doctor Who'' took place on 23 November 1978, five days after the broadcast of part four of ''[[The Stones of Blood (TV story)|The Stones of Blood]]'' which, incidentally, was also the one-hundredth televised ''Doctor Who'' story. To commemorate this, [[Anthony Read]] asked [[David Fisher (writer)|David Fisher]] to write a new scene (expanded by [[Darrol Blake]]) featuring [[Romana I|Romana]] and [[K9 Mark II|K9]] surprising the [[Fourth Doctor]] with a [[birthday cake]] (and a new identical [[The Doctor's scarf|scarf]]), celebrating his seven hundred fifty-first [[birthday]]. However, producer [[Graham Williams]] vetoed this idea as being too self-indulgent and the scene was never shot. Blake had already ordered a cake, and this was eaten by the cast and crew. | * The 15th anniversary of ''Doctor Who'' took place on 23 November 1978, five days after the broadcast of part four of ''[[The Stones of Blood (TV story)|The Stones of Blood]]'' which, incidentally, was also the one-hundredth televised ''Doctor Who'' story.
