Still reading the archives (not much happening here!!) and, in a thread
titled "Title Sequence", one of the Posters typed ....

Quote
New title sequences were made for:

- An Unearthly Child (of course) (yes, I know the music on the pilot
version is slightly different... a thunderclap or two)
End Quote.

As far as I ever knew 'An Unearthly Child' *WAS* the first episode,
there never was a Pilot Episode.

Does anyone, today, know any different??

Yes.

There was an unaired pilot version of An Unearthly Child, with
some small differences from the canon version.

Yes. The "An Unearthly Child" pilot episode has been released by
the BBC on VHS (Doctor Who: The Hartnell Years") and DVD
("Doctor Who: The Beginning").

The pilot episode will almost certainly be on the Doctor Who:
Blu Ray Collection release when they get around to doing Season
1. (The original S1, you might say.)

throughout the years, and RADW too obviously... plus the 'pilot
