August 5, 1966 –
Based of the TV series, Doctor Who, the sequel to the film, Dr. Who and the Daleks, Daleks’ Invasion Earth 2150 A.D., starring Peter Cushing, Roberta Tovey, Jill Curzon, and Bernard Cribbins, premiered on this date.
The rebel hideout in 2150 is prominently identified as Embankment station on the London Underground’s Bakerloo and Northern Lines. There had actually been a station called Embankment once, but it was renamed Charing Cross from 1915; thus Embankment was a suitable name for a fictional station. However, in 1976, 10 years after the movie was released, reality conformed to fiction when the station, now served by the Bakerloo and Northern Lines among others, was given back its original name of Embankment.
