  • Titan Books launches a new line of books entitled Doctor Who: The Scripts, with the publication of the script for DW: An Unearthly Child, which was published under the working title The Tribe of Gum.

  • 18 - DWN: Doctor Who - The Wheel in Space First Published. Final Target Books release to use the neon-tube series logo established in 1980. All further releases use the McCoy era logo introduced in 1987. This book has an extremely low print run which results in it becoming a collector's item.
    • In an effort to boost sales of older novelisations, Target Books launches the Doctor Who Classics line of releases. These are omnibus reissues of novelisations, two per volume. Two books are released this date (with the original book titles shortened to their original TV titles in the case of those with Doctor Who and... in the original release): DWN: Dalek Invasion of Earth/The Crusaders and DWN: The Myth Makers/The Gunfighters.
