More about Doctor Who

The British series first aired in 1963, beginning with William Hartnell. Since then thirteen actors have headlined the series as the mysterious Doctor, and in 2017 Jodie Whittaker became the first woman to take on the role. The transition from one actor to another is written into the plot of the show with the idea of regeneration into a new incarnation, a plot device in which a Time Lord aka The Doctor 'transforms' into a new body when the current one is too badly harmed to heal normally. The show is a significant part of British popular culture and has over the years gained cult status. The series is listed in Guinness World Records as the longest-running science fiction television show in the world, as well as the 'most successful' science fiction series of all time.
