Doctor Who
Transcript: The longest running sci-fi show in history This also conveniently allows the character of the Doctor to continue without its previous actor, which is how the show has managed to continue all of these years. The Daleks A show that is 50 years old will obviously have a significant bit of backstory. I'll be explaining some of the more prominent points here. Patrick Troughton (January 3, 1970 – June 8, 1974) Current Interior Colin Baker (March 16, 1984 – December 6, 1986) Time Lords The Seventh Doctor The Daleks and the Cybermen Doctor Who follows an alien known as "The Doctor," who has a machine called the TARDIS that can travel anywhere in space and time. He travels around the Universe for fun, usually with a human companion. The Doctor frequently encounters people who are threatened in one way or another, and he helps them from whatever threat they're under. The Lore of Doctor Who The Fifth Doctor One character for 50 years?! The First Doctor Here is every actor who has ever played the Doctor in order of appearance. The Time Lords are a race of aliens that gained the ability to travel through time In addition to their ability to regenerate (or perhaps because of it), Time Lords have extraordinarily long lives. The Doctor is currently over 1,000 years old Nearly all of the Time Lords are dead now, as a result of the Great Time War between the Time Lords and the Daleks (more on this later) Jon Pertwee (January 3, 1970 – June 8, 1974) Exterior Interior Renegade Time Lord, and the archenemy of the Doctor Originally made to be the "Moriarty to the Doctor's Sherlock Holmes" Old childhood friend of the Doctor Now wants to control as much as he can Stands for "Time and Relative Dimensions in Space" Bigger on the inside (infinite rooms) Has the ability to travel almost anywhere in space and time Created by the Time Lords (it's not unique, there's more than one) Has a "chameleon circuit" that disguises it to blend in with the environment it lands in The Doctor's chameleon circuit is broken, and his machine permanently looks like a police telephone box from the '60s Enemies of the Doctor David Tennant (June 18, 2005 – January 1, 2010) William Hartnell (November 23, 1963 – October 29, 1966) Sylvester McCoy (September 7, 1987 – December 6, 1989) (May 27, 1996) First appeared in the episode "The Daleks" in 1963, the series second episode Originally resembled humans, but mutated into an unrecognizable form. They now live in metallic shells. Main goal is "the extermination of all non-Dalek life in the Universe" Known for yelling "EXTERMINATE!" Doctor Who is a british science fiction television show that premiered on November 23rd, 1963. It's still very popular today, with a large following both in Britain and elsewhere in the world, particularly the United States. Modern Title Sequence Paul McGann (1996 - TV Movie) The Fourth Doctor The Second Doctor The Sixth Doctor The Eleventh Doctor The interior changes occasionally aesthetically. Here are a few of the looks the inside of the TARDIS has had throughout the years. Matt Smith (January 1, 2010 – present) Here is a clip of the most recent incarnation of the Master. At this point he has recently gotten himself elected Prime Minister of England. First appeared in "The Tenth Planet" in 1966 Were originally a wholly organic race of people who lived on a planet very similar to Earth Replaced more and more of their bodies with machinery, becoming cold and logical as emotion was abandoned Main goal is to convert all other life forms to Cybermen The Doctors DOCTOR WHO The End? So what's it about? Christopher Eccleston (March 26, 2005 – June 18, 2005) The Tenth Doctor Since the Doctor travels through time saving others, he's naturally made a few enemies. Here are the most prominent ones. The Third Doctor The Cybermen The Ninth Doctor Tom Baker (June 8, 1974 – March 21, 1981) The Master The Master This is all of the information you absolutely need to know to start watching the show. I will, however, probably add more onto this later. DOCTOR WHO? Peter Davison (March 21, 1981 – March 16, 1984) The Doctor is from a planet known as Gallifrey, and his people are called the Time Lords. One particularly notable ability of theirs is that when their body is dying, it restores itself to life, in the process completely changing the appearance and, to an extent, the personality of that Time Lord. This can be done up to 12 times by a single Time Lord, for a total of 13 "regenerations." The TARDIS The Eighth Doctor
