1872

1872 was perhaps most famous on Earth for the discovery of the completely abandoned Mary Celeste in the mid-Atlantic. There were conflicting accounts of the fate of the crew and passengers — but all of them involved the Doctor and/or Daleks. (TV: The Chase, PROSE: The Mystery of the Marie Celeste, COMIC: A Stitch in Time)

Elsewhere, the Fourth Doctor and Leela visited Easter Island, (PROSE: Eye of Heaven) and Iris Wildthyme was called "Madam" for the last time. (AUDIO: The Panda Invasion)

On the third of February, Joseph Sundvik died. (TV: The Curse of Fenric)
