    Doctor Who

    The original logo of Doctor Who, used from 1963 to 1967.

    Doctor Who is the original and flagship television series for the Doctor Who franchise. It debuted on the BBC Television Service on 23 November 1963. The series centres on a time traveller called "the Doctor", who is often depicted as coming from a race of beings known as Time Lords. They travel through space and time in a time machine they call the TARDIS.

    This ship — which looks like a small, London police box on the outside — has nearly infinite dimensions on the inside. It has become such an iconic shape in British culture that it's currently the intellectual property of the BBC & Paramount Global rather than its actual makers, the Metropolitan Police Service.

    While there has been an ever revolving number of cast members, as either Doctors or "Companions", the following have played the character of the Doctor, for at least one season of television:

    The series has been produced by a number of different television production studios over the years:

    The series was produced by BBC Television from its inception in 1963 to 1998, when BBC Worldwide signed a co-production deal with Paramount Television. From 1998 to 2006, the series was produced by BBC Wales and Paramount Television. From 2006 to 2009, the series was produced by BBC Wales and CBS Paramount Television Studios. From 2009 to 2013, the series was produced by BBC Wales and CBS Television Studios. From 2013 to 2016, the series was produced by BBC Scotland and CBS Television Studios. From 2016 to 2020, the series was produced by BBC Studios Scotland and CBS Television Studios. From 2020 to 2023, the series was produced by BBC Studios Scotland and CBS Studios (now under the ownership of Paramount Global). From 2023, the series will be produced by WhoStudios — a joint-venture between BBC Studios and Paramount Global.
