Totally Doctor Who is a children's programme produced by the BBC to accompany the science fiction series Doctor Who. It aired on BBC One at 5:00pm on Thursdays as part of the CBBC strand, and was repeated at 6:30pm on Fridays and then again on Saturdays on the CBBC Channel, just prior to the BBC One airing of the new episode of Doctor Who. The first episode was broadcast on 13 April 2006.
The programme ran concurrently with the 2006 series of Doctor Who. There was no episode in conjunction with the 2006 Christmas special, but a new series to run at the same time as the 2007 series has been commissioned. This will air every Monday after the broadcast of that weeks' episode, at 5:00 pm on BBC1 with the introduction of Kirsten O'Brien to replace Liz Barker who left television presenting to become a full time mother [1].
The programme is produced by Simon Hall, whose previous work includes Beckham’s Hotshots.

Regular features
The Filing Cabinet (Series 1)
The filing cabinet contains letters, drawings and creations made by the viewers. It has a weathered, wooden-looking exterior, with Gallifreyan text on the front and is designed to look like the Doctor's TARDIS. It also has the properties of a TARDIS because it appears to be bigger on the inside (however, it is quite obviously fed through the wall; made ever more obvious by the fact that the wall behind it is semi-transparent!). If a piece of work is featured on the show, its author receives a Totally Doctor Who branded mug.
Interview
Every week there is a different guest who is given and interview during the program, for example Russell T Davies.
Behind the scenes
The show features 'behind the scenes' segments detailing the creation process of certain parts of a recent Doctor Who episode: for example, underwater filming for a weightless scene in The Impossible Planet, or documenting the making of a TARDISODE.
Companion Academy (Series 1)
In the "Companion Academy" segment, a number of children compete in the style of a reality show to win a day behind-the-scenes during the filming of Doctor Who. The competition was originally restricted to 7- to 12-year-olds, but was subsequently extended to include ages 13 and 14. One of the judges for this segment is Clayton Hickman, current editor of Doctor Who Magazine.
Team Totally (Series 2)
Two teams of three battle it out for a money can't buy Doctor Who experience. The two teams are Team Time Lord (Alia, Sara and Cody) and Team Tardis (Chris, Molly and Daniel). Every week they complete a task, e.g. Story boarding, the winners are rewarded with 2 points whilst the runners-up are awarded 1 point.
Who-ru (Series 1)
The title is a pun on the word guru. It is a Doctor Who trivia challenge between two children or a child and an actor, with a prize from one of the guests (usually a signed script or promotional photo) though both contestants receive a Totally Doctor Who goodie bag for taking part. The format of the challenge changed after the first episode, in which the loser had to give the winner a cherished possession.
The Infinite Quest (Series 2)
One segment in the 2007 series of Totally Doctor Who is a 12-part animated Doctor Who story titled "The Infinite Quest".[2][3] The cartoon stars David Tennant and Freema Agyeman, voicing the Doctor and Martha respectively. Anthony Head voices a character named "Baltazar - Scourge of the Galaxy", and Toby Longworth also provides voices. The cartoon is produced by Firestep, written by Alan Barnes and directed by Gary Russell.
Finale
At the end of the programme the presenters and guests review the show. The two presenters then show a preview of the next new episode of Doctor Who.
