This is a list of Doctor Who television serials. Each serial up to 1989's Survival was a multi-episode story; the characters in brackets after the serial titles indicates the code used by the production team to designate the serial (where applicable) and are followed by the number of episodes in the serial. Unless otherwise noted, episodes were 25 minutes long.

A number of serials from the 1960s are either totally missing or have episodes missing, while some of the early 1970s episodes are only held in black and white. See List of incomplete Doctor Who serials for an exact listing.

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 among fans about, for example, whether to count Season 23's The Trial of a Time Lord as one or four serials and whether the uncompleted Shada should be included. The numbering scheme used here reflects that used in popular reference books like The Discontinuity Guide and on the Region 1 DVD releases, which count Trial as four serials and includes Shada.

Starting with the 2005 revival, the production team abandoned the traditional serial format for a largely self-contained episodic format (with the occasional two-part story and loose story arc elements), similar to the style of American dramas such as Star Trek or Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

[edit] William Hartnell (First Doctor)

(In the first two seasons and most of the third season, each episode of a serial had an individual title; no serial had an overall onscreen title until The Savages. The earlier stories did have overall titles though they were not used onscreen, and much confusion has existed over the years, with many sources using different titles due to early fandom and reference works being unable to initially access the production files.)

[edit] Season 1 (1963-64)

(During the early seasons of the programme, most serials were linked together, usually one leading directly into the next, although there are some breaks such as between the second season finale The Time Meddler and the third season premiere, Galaxy 4.)

Note 1: This episode was merged with Episode 3 Crisis at the last minute by the producer Verity Lambert and is only what episode 4 would have been called.

[edit] (Jon Pertwee)

Starting from Season 7, the programme was broadcast in colour.

[edit] Season 7 (1970)

[edit] Season 8 (1971)

[edit] Season 9 (1972)

[edit] Season 10 (1972–73)

[edit] Season 11 (1973–74)

[edit] Fourth Doctor (Tom Baker)

[edit] Season 12 (1974–75)

All serials in this season continued directly one after the other, although most of the stories are considered standalones.

[edit] Season 13 (1975–76)

[edit] Season 14 (1976–77)

[edit] Season 15 (1977–78)

[edit] Season 16 (1978–79)

Season 16 consisted of one long story arc encompassing six separate, linked stories. This season is referred to by the umbrella title The Key to Time and has been released to DVD under this title.

[edit] Season 17 (1979–80)

[edit] Season 18 (1980–81)

In a return to the format of early seasons, virtually all serials from the start of Season 18 through to the end of Season 20 would be linked together, often with the final scene of one story leading straight into the next story.

[edit] Fifth Doctor (Peter Davison)

[edit] Season 19 (1982)

[edit] Season 20 (1983)

[edit] Season 21 (1984)

Beginning with this season, serials were no longer directly linked for the first time since Season 18, with the sole exception being the end of Frontios and the start of Resurrection of the Daleks. Resurrection was originally filmed as 4 25-minute episodes but was re-edited into two 46-minute episodes to accommodate coverage of the 1984 Winter Olympics though the 25-minute versions were also circulated to broadcasters overseas.

[edit] Sixth Doctor (Colin Baker)

[edit] Season 21 (1984) — continued

[edit] Season 22 (1985)

All episodes were 45 minutes in length.

[edit] Season 23 (1986)

Although broadcast as an epic 14-part serial under the title of The Trial of a Time Lord, Season 23 was structured as four serials, recorded in 3 production blocks. The four serials, with their generally used titles, are listed below.

  • 144 - The Mysterious Planet (7A) (4 episodes; Robert Holmes)
  • 145 - Mindwarp (7B) (4 episodes; Philip Martin)
  • 146 - Terror of the Vervoids (7C) (4 episodes; Pip and Jane Baker) Also known as The Ultimate Foe or The Vervoids.
  • 147 - The Ultimate Foe (7C) (2 episodes; Robert Holmes and Pip and Jane Baker) Also known as Time Incorporated.

[edit] Seventh Doctor (Sylvester McCoy)

[edit] Season 24 (1987)

[edit] Season 25 (1988–89)

[edit] Season 26 (1989)

[edit] Eighth Doctor (Paul McGann)

[edit] Doctor Who (1996)

No title was ever used for this project other than "Doctor Who", which is highly confusing in a listing of this nature. However, Enemy Within was suggested as an alternative title by producer Philip Segal and has been used by many fans lacking any other title by which to refer to the television movie; other titles have also been used informally by fan groups.

[edit] Ninth Doctor (Christopher Eccleston)

In 2005, the BBC relaunched Doctor Who after a 16-year absence from episodic television. The production team chose to restart the series numbering from scratch, but some fans of the programme prefer to label the 2005 series as Season 27, the 2006 series as Season 28, and so on. Also, for the first time since the 1965–66 season, each episode has an individual title, although some stories are two-parters.

[edit] Series 1 (2005)

Initially promoted as standalone episodes, all 13 episodes of the 2005 series also constitute a loose story arc, dealing with the consequences of the Time War and the mysterious Bad Wolf. Starting from this season, the programme was shot in 16:9 widescreen.

All episodes 45 minutes

[edit] Tenth Doctor (David Tennant)

[edit] Children in Need special (2005)

An untitled 7-minute mini-episode, set between The Parting of the Ways and The Christmas Invasion was broadcast 18 November 2005 as part of the "Children in Need" appeal.

[edit] Christmas special (2005)

This production is not considered part of Series 2 (2006), though that production's first block is shared with this. An interactive episode, Attack of the Graske, was aired on digital television immediately after the special.

[edit] Series 2 (2006)

 Please use the type option of this template to properly categorize the article

Each episode has an accompanying TARDISODE. All episodes expected to be 45 minutes. The information below is subject to change.

Russell T. Davies has indicated that the order of episodes may change. A trailer for this series can be viewed here.

[edit] Christmas special (2006) and Series 3 (2007)

A second Christmas special and a third series have been commissioned. The only confirmed casting details are that the Doctor will be played by David Tennant, that Billie Piper will not return as Rose Tyler [1], and John Barrowman will return as Jack Harkness. One story in Series 3 will be written by Steven Moffat. Another story, written by Stephen Fry, was originally commissioned for Series 2, but has been moved to this series due to logistical issues. Fry's episode was rumoured to be set on Earth during the 1930s and to have "lots of special effects". Fry told Scotland Today that his story "deals with a well-known British legend." Tom MacRae will write one episode, and Paul Cornell will pen a two-part story [2].

It will also apparently feature a moving four-word secret from the dying Face of Boe to a wandering traveller.

[edit] Others

There have been a few one-off special episodes or serials produced by the BBC for Doctor Who that are not generally considered to be part of the series' continuity.
