On This Day... 17th November

 
The Creature From The Pit Part Four is the only episode of Doctor Who ever to have been broadcast for the first time on today's date, back in 1979.
Spin-off wise, The Temptation of Sarah Jane Smith Part One also made its debut, in 2008. This was the story which gave us the background to Sarah's early life - how she came to be living with an aunt rather than being brought up by her parents. It also categorically stated Sarah's year of birth and thus fixed the UNIT stories squarely in the years they were broadcast, and not some ill defined "near future".
