10 years of Who?

Doctor Who has a long and wibbly wobbly history to say the least. The show was originally broadcast from 1963-89. Following the shows abrupt cancellation the show lived on in the form of spin offs, remakes, revivals, books, comics, audio adventures to name just a few. 

After a 1996 pilot movie featuring Paul McGann as the mysterious Timelord the show was again off air for a further 14 years before making its ultimate return with the current series. Returning to its rightful place on BBC ONE on a Saturday evening, along came a new, but battered TARDIS (wibbly wobbly timey wimey ... stuff) with a stern northern Christopher Eccleston to introduce a new generation of kids to The monsters and The Doctor. It seems you cannot have one without the other.

• Broadcast over 100 episodes. 
• Had 4 or 5 (or 6) actors play The Doctor on air.

If you're not a Doctor Who completionist (like moi) then it's likely that its been over 10 years since you've seen this, or you may never have seen it. Honestly there's nothing super exciting it's just an old BBC promo for the 2005 series.
