17 February

On 17 February 1863, the Fifth Doctor and Nyssa were in London, where they had a meeting with General George Doulton at King's Cross Station. That morning was the first time that Nyssa had been introduced to porridge. As the day wore on, the duo began a long train ride up to Scotland, where they would meet Queen Victoria in the immediate wake of the death of Prince Albert. (PROSE: Empire of Death)
