You'll want to explode the original date into its components, then format it using the date() function in conjunction with mktime()

Functions used:
date (format, timestamp)
mktime (hour,minute,second,month,day,year)

$dateparts = explode('/',$showdate);
$newdate = date( "jS F Y", mktime(0,0,0,$dateparts[1],$dateparts[0],$dateparts[2]) );

echo $newdate;

I think that'll do it.
