Regex to remove everything from a string before the first number

    I have a little bit of a problem to figure this one out.

    $string = "This is the Episode 7: Great Title";

    How can I preg_replace this string to just get "7: Great Title"?
    The only pattern I have is that it will be the first number in the string. The string before the number varies. Any help would be great!
