List of Doctor Who episodes (2005–present)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Doctor Who is a British science fiction television programme produced by the BBC. As of 22 June 2024, 883 episodes of Doctor Who have aired. This includes one television movie and multiple specials, and encompasses 311 stories over 40 seasons, starting in 1963. Additionally, four charity specials and two animated serials have also been aired. The programme's high episode count has resulted in Doctor Who holding the world record for the highest number of episodes of a science-fiction programme.[1] As of November 2023, up to a seventeenth series of the revived era has been planned.[2]

Doctor Who ceased broadcasting in 1989, then resumed in 2005. The original series (1963–1989), generally consists of multi-episode serials. The 2005 revival trades the earlier serial format for a run of self-contained episodes, interspersed with occasional multi-part stories and structured into loose story arcs.

The story numbers below are meant as a guide to placement in the overall context of the programme.[3] There is some dispute, for instance, about whether to count Season 23's The Trial of a Time Lord as one or as four serials,[4] and whether the unfinished serial Shada should be included.[5] The numbering scheme in this list follows the official website's episode guide.[3] Other sources, such as the Region 1 classic Doctor Who DVD releases, use different numbering schemes, which diverge after the 108th story, The Horns of Nimon (1979–1980).

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ The First Doctor remained for the first two serials of season 4. The Second Doctor featured for the remainder of the season from the third serial, The Power of the Daleks.
  2. ^ Also known by its subtitle, The Key to Time
  3. ^ Shada was left unfinished due to a strike. The story was later completed and officially released on home media in 2017. The voices of the original actors with new animation was incorporated to bridge the gaps between the recorded live-action segments. It is not included in the episode or story counts as it was not broadcast.
  4. ^ The Fifth Doctor regenerated in the sixth serial of season 21. The Sixth Doctor featured only in the final serial, The Twin Dilemma.
  5. ^ A change in transmission format for this season only as episodes were 45 minutes instead of the usual 24 minutes. Thus a traditional 4-part story was transmitted in 2 parts.
  6. ^ Also known by its subtitle, The Trial of a Time Lord
  7. ^ Also known by its subtitle, Flux
  8. ^ These specials consist of the 2008 Christmas, 2009 Easter, 2009 November and the 2009–10 Christmas/New Year's Day episodes.
  9. ^ These specials consist of the 50th Anniversary and 2013 Christmas episodes.
  10. ^ This episode was the first episode of the twelfth series (and is only counted in the § Regular seasons table of this article), and thus not a special aired outside of a series, but it was aired four days before the twelfth series' traditional timeslot in order to air deliberately on New Year's Day.
  11. ^ These specials consist of the 2022 New Year's Day, 2022 Easter, and 2022 BBC Centenary episodes.[7][8]
  12. ^ These specials consist of the 60th anniversary episodes.

Episodes

[edit]

Ninth Doctor

[edit]

In 2005, the BBC relaunched Doctor Who after a 15-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.

For the first time since the 1965–1966 season, each episode has a title, and most were stand alone as complete stories. The show also returned to its traditional Saturday evening slot.

During Eccleston's tenure, the episodes were all set on either Earth, or in its orbit, in its past, present and future. In his last story, The Parting of the Ways, the Doctor absorbed the Time Vortex to save his companion, leading to his regeneration.

Series 1 (2005)

[edit]

The 2005 series introduces Billie Piper as the companion Rose Tyler, and constitutes a loose story arc, dealing with the consequences of the Time War and its impact on the Doctor, and the mystery of the seemingly omnipresent phrase 'Bad Wolf'.

Tenth Doctor

[edit]

The Tenth Doctor was portrayed by David Tennant, who was cast before the first series aired.[12] With the success of the first series, Doctor Who returned to its old formula of visiting alien planets in addition to the time travel. Tennant retained the role until Part Two of The End of Time when the Doctor suffers radiation poisoning, saving his companion.

Series 2 (2006)

[edit]

The back-story for the spin-off series Torchwood is "seeded" in various episodes in the 2006 series. Rose continues travelling with the Doctor, leaving the series at the end of the finale Doomsday.

[edit]

The Eleventh Doctor was portrayed by Matt Smith. Steven Moffat took over as showrunner from the fifth series, swapping the melodramatic stories of his predecessor for ones involving convoluted time travel, which remained a staple for the entirety of Smith's tenure as the Doctor.[16][17] Smith retained the role until the Christmas special The Time of the Doctor, with the Doctor dying due to old age and fatigue from a centuries-long war.[18]

Series 5 (2010)

[edit]

This series introduced Karen Gillan and Arthur Darvill as companions Amy Pond and Rory Williams respectively, and deals with cracks spreading throughout time and space and erasing things and the opening of the Pandorica which are mentioned in various episodes.

Twelfth Doctor

[edit]

The Twelfth Doctor was portrayed by Peter Capaldi. His tenure saw a reduction of total episodes per series from thirteen to twelve.

Capaldi played the role until the Christmas special Twice Upon a Time, trying to save a ship of strangers from Cybermen, "without hope, without witness, without reward".

Series 8 (2014)

[edit]

The series dealt with the mystery identity of the character "Missy", the mystery around "The Promised Land", and the dynamic of The Doctor and Clara and how it was affected by his regeneration.
