Revision as of 01:47, 24 December 2010
Doctor Who is a British science fiction television programme produced by the BBC. As of 26 June 2010, 769 individual episodes, including one television movie of Doctor Who have been aired, encompassing 212 stories. Additionally, four charity specials and two animated serials have been aired, and two short sequences—"A Fix with Sontarans" and "Attack of the Graske"—were produced and involved the interaction of a viewer; the former was a segment of Jim'll Fix It and latter was a fully-interactive adventure. The show's high episode count resulted in Doctor Who holding the world record for the highest number of episodes for a science-fiction programme.[1] For comparison, the Guinness World Record holder for the highest number of consecutive episodes, Stargate SG-1,[1] aired 214 episodes.
Up until Survival in 1989, every story was a multi-episode serial, with two exceptions: the 1965 cutaway episode "Mission to the Unknown"; and the 20th anniversary story The Five Doctors. The characters in the column after the serial titles indicate the code used by the production team to designate the serial, where applicable, and are followed either by the titles of the individual episodes where given or by the number of episodes otherwise. Unless otherwise noted, episodes in this period are 25 minutes long. During the early seasons of the programme most serials were linked together and one would usually lead directly into the next. Starting with the 2005 revival, the production team abandoned the traditional serial format for a largely self-contained episodic format with occasional multi-part stories and loose story arcs. Unless otherwise noted, the new episodes are 45 minutes long.
Additionally, some other subsets of serials and episodes exist. Some are unmade: they were proposed for a variety of reasons, some even reaching post-production, but not broadcast. Some episodes from the 1960s are missing due to the BBC's 1970s junking policy, and thus their serials are incomplete. In the first two seasons and most of the third, each episode of a serial had an individual title; no serial had an overall on-screen title until The Savages. The serial titles given below are the most common title for the serials as a whole, used in sources such as the Doctor Who Reference Guide and the BBC's classic episode guide, and are generally those used for commercial release. The practice of individually titled episodes resurfaced with the show's 2005 revival, when Doctor Who's serial nature was abandoned in favour of an episodic format.
The three-digit story numbers are not official designations but are merely to serve as a guide to where the story stands in the overall context of the programme. There is some dispute about, for example, whether to count Season 23's The Trial of a Time Lord as one or four serials,[2] and whether the uncompleted Shada should be included.[3] The numbering scheme used here reflects the current internal practice of describing "Planet of the Dead" (2009) as the 200th story, used in the official magazine's 407th issue.[4] Other sources, such as the Region 1 DVDs of classic Doctor Who serials, use different numbering schemes which diverge after the 108th story, The Horns of Nimon (1979–1980).
First Doctor
The first incarnation of The Doctor was portrayed by William Hartnell. During Hartnell's tenure, the Doctor visited a mixture of stories set in the future and in historical events that had no extraterrestrial influence, such as fifteenth century Mesoamerica. In his last story, The Tenth Planet, the Doctor gradually grew weaker to the point of collapsing at the end of the fourth episode, leading to his regeneration.
Season 1 (1963–64)
Verity Lambert was producer with David Whitaker serving as script editor.

Ninth Doctor
In 2005, the BBC relaunched Doctor Who after a 16-year absence from episodic television, with Russell T Davies, Julie Gardner and Mal Young as executive producers, Phil Collinson as producer, and Christopher Eccleston taking the lead role of the Ninth Doctor.
Although the production team chose to restart the series numbering from scratch, some fans of the programme prefer to refer to the 2005 series as Season 27, the 2006 series as Season 28, and so on. Despite the new numbering, the revival adheres to the original continuity. The new series is formatted to a 16:9 widescreen display ratio, and a standard episode length of 45 minutes. For the first time since the 1965–66 season, each episode has an individual title even though some stories span more than one episode. The show also returned to its traditional Saturday evening slot.
Series 1 (2005)

Series 6 (2011)
A new series is scheduled for broadcast in 2011; the first seven episodes will be broadcast in the spring and the final six in the autumn, with the mid-season finale being a "game changing cliffhanger".[20][21] Matt Smith,[15] Karen Gillan,[22] and Arthur Darvill all reprise their roles.[23] Peter Bennett remains as producer, but his counterpart Tracie Simpson is replaced by Sanne Wohlenberg, while departing production designer Edward Thomas is replaced by Michael Pickwoad.[24]
Series 6 will continue story threads from series 5, investigating the mysterious "silence" that caused the TARDIS to explode in "The Pandorica Opens" / "The Big Bang" and the identity of River Song.[25] The two-part opening story, written by Steven Moffat and directed by Toby Haynes,[26] will have scenes filmed in the United States with the cast for the first time and feature Alex Kingston and Mark Sheppard;[27] the Doctor, Amy and Rory will travel from Utah to Washington, D.C. during the 1960s. Production began in November.[28][29]
Neil Gaiman has written an episode currently scheduled to be the third[30]; he confirmed that it would begin filming in August 2010.[31][32] In it Suranne Jones plays Idris, a young woman.[33] Moffat is to write five episodes.[34] Richard Clark, who previously directed 2007's "Gridlock" and "The Lazarus Experiment", returns to direct new episodes, as does Adam Smith, director of 2010's "The Eleventh Hour" and "The Time of Angels" / "Flesh and Stone".[35] Mark Gatiss has written an episode as well.[36] Filming is scheduled to continue until March 2011.[28]

Radio broadcasts
There have been many Doctor Who radio broadcasts over the years. In addition to a small number of in-house BBC productions, a larger number of radio plays produced by Big Finish began to be broadcast on BBC Radio 7 from 2005, featuring the Eighth Doctor (again played by Paul McGann) with mainstay companions Charley Pollard and later Lucie Miller. Many more of these were released on CD than were broadcast on the radio; only those plays broadcast by the BBC are listed here. See the list of Doctor Who audio releases as a starting point for other audio plays and audio books, notably the list of Doctor Who audio plays by Big Finish which includes considerably more plays than were broadcast. The canonicity of these radio plays, as with other Doctor Who spin-off media, is unclear.

Video Games
The Adventure Games
On 7 April 2010, the BBC announced that the fifth series would be supplemented with four "interactive episodes",[45] released online for free in the UK. They are described as "part of the Doctor Who universe", and will "go on to define the look and feel of future TV episodes." Executively produced by Moffat, Wenger and Willis with Anwen Aspden and Charles Cecil, the games are developed by Sumo Digital and written by Phil Ford and James Moran. Matt Smith and Karen Gillan provide full voiceovers for the digitised Doctor and Amy, both of whom are playable characters. Each episode offers around two hours of gameplay.[45] The Adventure Games have been recommissioned by the BBC for a second series in 2011.[46]

Footnotes
- ^a Webber's script for the originally intended opening episode for the first story The Giants was a basis for the opening episode, but Webber didn't work with Coburn on the script.
- ^b From this story up to the end of the original run [1989], the serials had overall titles (where previously each episode had an individual title), with episodes now simply being numbered (1,2 etc.). For the 2005 revival, episode titles are used, even for most multi-episode tales, although the majority of stories are told in a single episode.
- ^c The Three Doctors was a tenth anniversary serial.
- ^d Between 1976 and 2008, Episode 3 existed only in black and white — for the Dalek War DVD box set release, the colour has been replaced using colour recovery methods and the original colour information found in the chroma dots in a black and white film copy
- ^e The first episode lists the serial's name as simply Invasion, in order to conceal the surprise ending to that episode.
- ^f Shada was left unfinished due to a strike. Its recorded footage was later released on home video using linking narration by Tom Baker to complete the story. It is not included in the episode or story counts as it was not broadcast.
- ^g The Five Doctors has also been released as four 25-minute episodes, and a 100 minute "Special Edition" re-edit, c. 2000. It is counted as 1 episode in the count.
- ^h Resurrection of the Daleks was written and filmed as four 25-minute episodes, then re-edited into two 45-minute episodes to accommodate coverage of the 1984 Winter Olympics; the 25-minute versions were later circulated to overseas broadcasters and commercially released. The serial is regarded as two 45-minute episodes in the count.
- ^i "TVM" is used in the BBC's online episode guide.[49] The actual code used during production is 50/LDX071Y/01X.[50] Doctor Who Magazine's "Complete Eighth Doctor Special" gives the production code as #83705.[51] Big Finish Productions uses the code 8A, and numbers its subsequent Eighth Doctor stories correspondingly.
- ^j As filming progressed on Series 4, the producers decided to rearrange the order of some episodes. "The Fires of Pompeii" and "Planet of the Ood" were switched, and "Midnight" was moved to air after the "Silence in the Library"/"Forest of the Dead" two-parter. However, the episodes retained the production codes reflecting the earlier plans.[52]
