14 February

14 February was the day in which humans, as well as other species, celebrated St Valentine's Day. (COMIC: Love is in the Air, PROSE: Do You Love Anyone Enough?) In Chicago, on Valentine's Day 1929, Agonal influenced Al Capone to commit the St Valentine's Day Massacre. (PROSE: Blood Harvest) In 2013, an Ameteli attempted to plunder Earth's resources, distracting the local population by shooting arrows laced with Porcheen neurotoxins. He was, however, defeated by the Eleventh Doctor. (COMIC: Love is in the Air)

The day was not, however, exclusively known for its celebrations of love. In 1863, for instance, the Fifth Doctor and Nyssa — in the immediate wake of Adric's death and Tegan's abandonment at Heathrow Airport — arrived in a London mourning for the dead Prince Albert. The duo begin a multi-day adventure in which they try to ascertain whether Queen Victoria's efforts to contact her beloved Albert had anything to do with the ghost of Adric they'd seen in the TARDIS console room, and the voice of Tremas channelled through the the monarch's mystic.

On 14 February 1980, Owen Harper, later a Torchwood Three operative, was born. (TV: Exit Wounds) In 1990, on his tenth birthday, his mother declared that she did not have to like him, only love him. (TV: Adam)

On the same day in 1977, the protection program in which Melissa Moretti would be placed was approved.
