Doctor Who
Doctor Who is my favourite television series of all time. It is a science fiction television series that began in 1963 and ran until being cancelled in 1989. The show was briefly revived in 1996 as a made-for-television film before being revived in 2005, and has been going strong ever since. The show has become embedded in British popular culture, inspiring several spin-offs, including Torchwood (2006-2011), The Sarah Jane Adventures (2007-2011), K-9 (2009-2010), and Class (2016). Anyways, what's it about? Let me tell you.
Doctor Who follows the adventures of the title character, a rogue Time Lord from the planet Gallifrey who goes by the name "the Doctor." The Doctor fled Gallifrey in a stolen TARDIS (Time and Relative Dimension in Space), a time machine that travels by materializing into and dematerializing out of the time vortex. The TARDIS has a vast interior but appears smaller on the outside, and is equipped with a "chameleon circuit" intended to make the machine take on the appearance of local objects as a disguise; due to a malfunction, the Doctor's TARDIS remains fixed as a blue British police box.
Across time and space, the Doctor's many incarnations often find events that pique their curiosity and try to prevent evil forces from harming innocent people or changing history, using only ingenuity and minimal resources, such as the versatile sonic screwdriver. The Doctor rarely travels alone and often brings one or more companions to share these adventures. These companions are usually humans, owing to the Doctor's fascination with planet Earth, which also leads to frequent collaborations with the international military task force UNIT when the Earth is threatened. The Doctor is centuries old and, as a Time Lord, has the ability to regenerate in case of mortal damage to the body, taking on a new appearance and personality. The Doctor has gained numerous reoccurring enemies during their travels, including the Daleks, the Cybermen, and the Master, another renegade Time Lord.
I wish you all a very happy New Year and so does the Doctor. Goodbye until we meet again.
