I don't know, man. It seems really problematic. I can kinda see it as a point on The Aztecs (TV story) page, in the sense that "this was the story chosen by BBC America to represent the William Hartnell era during their 50th Anniversary celebrations." That's fine. As long as it's not in the lead of the piece and is just one of the story notes, fine.

But it's not something that makes the day of January the 27th very notable. It's not a "we gotta write this down on the calendar" kinda thing. If it had been aired on the 50th anniversary of The Aztecs itself — 23 May 2014 — then you'd have something you could put on 23 May.

What's actually notable about 27 January is the BBCA debut of The Doctors Revisited - The First Doctor.

Starting down the path of noting when a particular serial was re-run on one network other than BBC1 implicitly means that all of them are fair game.
