Doctor Who

Doctor Who is a British science fiction television series produced by the BBC about a mysterious time-travelling adventurer known only as "The Doctor." It is also the title of a 1996 television movie featuring the same character.

The programme is a significant part of British popular culture, widely recognised for its creative storytelling, use of innovative music (produced by the BBC Radiophonic Workshop) and low-budget special effects. The show has become a cult television favourite on par with Star Trek.

It has influenced generations of British genre television writers, many of whom grew up watching the series. Doctor Who ranked third in a list of the 100 Greatest British Television Programmes of the 20th century. The list was produced by the British Film Institute in 2000 and voted on by industry professionals

New Doctor Who is still being actively produced by the BBC. The new 15th version of the Doctor, played by Ncuti Gatwa began his espacial journey, on Christmas Day 2023 with Millie gibson as his companion, playing the character of Ruby Sunday.
