How to Doctor Who

Intimidated by the long history of Doctor Who? Don't be. You'll be able to jump right in with the 60th Anniversary Specials and enjoy it as a brand new show. These four concepts are probably all you'll actually need.

Doctor Who is a "family franchise", which means there's something in it for all ages.

There's more than just TV

You can certainly choose to enjoy Doctor Who as purely a television series. But did you know that there are far more stories told in the comic and audio form than exist in the whole television catalogue? Luckily, there's no such thing as canon in this fandom. So you can enjoy exactly the kind of Doctor Who you prefer. And we'll be here to cover it all!

Take a trip in the memory TARDIS!

Tales of the TARDIS is the first new spin-off to join the Whoniverse on BBC iPlayer. Each episode comprises a classic Doctor Who story edited into one omnibus-style episode, bookended by new scenes featuring members of the original cast in "a remembered TARDIS". It's a great place to start dipping your toes into Doctor Who's older stories, or to revisit old favourites!

Listen to the Doctor and friends!

Big Finish's main range of Doctor Who audio stories features the adventures of mainly the Fifth, Sixth and Seventh Doctors, complete with large casts, sound effects and scores. Though some original-to-audio companions are occasionally used, the line typically features the original lead actors seen on television.

Stripped for Action!

Where Nobody Knows Your Name — intentionally titled after the Cheers theme song — was an Eighth Doctor comic story set in a bar. More character study than adventure, it stressed the complexities of friendships between long-lived shape-shifters like the Doctor and his former companion, Frobisher.

Enter the Game Station

The First Adventure was a video game released in late 1983 for the BBC Micro. The title was, fittingly, the first officially licensed Doctor Who video game. Months earlier, an unlicensed game titled Doctor Who Adventure had appeared in Computer & Video Games, a gaming zine. The First Adventure featured the Doctor traveling through several areas to save his companion, with most levels being based on other popular games of the time.
