Doctor Who is a British science-fiction television programme
produced by the BBC from 1963 to the present day. The
programme depicts the adventures of the Doctor , a Time Lord
—a time-travelling humanoid alien . He explores the universe in
his TARDIS , a sentient time-travelling space ship. Its exterior
appears as a blue British police box, which was a common
sight in Britain in 1963 when the series first aired. Along with
a succession of companions , the Doctor faces a variety of
foes while working to save civilisations, help ordinary people,
and right wrongs.

Premise
Doctor Who follows the adventures of the primary character, a
rogue Time Lord from the planet Gallifrey who simply goes by
the name " Doctor ". He fled from Gallifrey in a stolen Type 40
TARDIS time machine - "Time and Relative Dimension in
Space" - which allows him to travel across time and space.
Due to a malfunction of the TARDIS' "chameleon circuit", which
normally allows the TARDIS to take on the appearance of local
objects to disguise it from others, the Doctor's TARDIS
remains fixed as a blue British Police box. The Doctor rarely
travels alone, and often brings one or more companions to
share these adventures with, typically humans as he has found
a fascination with the planet Earth. He often finds events that
pique his curiosity while trying to prevent evil forces from
harming innocent people or changing history, using only his
ingenuity and minimal resources, such as his versatile sonic
screwdriver . As a Time Lord, the Doctor has the ability to
regenerate when his body is mortally damaged, taking on a
new appearance and personality. The Doctor has gained
numerous reoccurring enemies during his travels, including the
Daleks , the Cybermen , and another renegade Time Lord, the
Master .

welcome fellow whovians, let's share fond memories of past doctor who episodes, and discuss the new stories as they unfold.

Hi,

I am very much a big fan of Doctor Who. I am a big fan of Tom Baker and watched him in the 1980's.

Does anyone remember watching black and white Dr Who in the 1980s or 1990s?

hi welcome on board.
Tom Baker the greatest of them all, he played the 4th incarnation of the doctor.
the black and white episodes are the adventures of the 1st and 2nd incarnations, fond memories.

I still follow doctor who, and I'm loving it.

What does dr who trich?

Big fan.

can you kindly rephrase your question?

big dr who fan here tom baker my favourite doctor grew up watching him. try and catch the new series when available on bbc. theme song is awesome

loved the day of the doctor episode where the 10th, 11th and war doctor joined forces to save the day (forgive the pun ) also liked how tom baker was revealed at the end

the 10th is the next best thing after Tom Baker.
theme song of the day of the doctor (50th anniversary special) is indeed awesome.
yes it felt good seeing Tom Baker again, tho I wonder how he became so old if he had regenerated to become the 5th?

Peter capaldi isn't too shabby either, he's shaping up to be a better doctor than Christopher Eccleston.
waiting for season 9
