It centres around a character named The Doctor, who travels around the universe in a [[time machine]] called the Tardis, which resembles a telephone booth but is much bigger inside than outside, usually with a female companion that he picks up along the way.

Doctor Who is a [[BBC]] TV programme started in 1963 and still going strong today. It centres around a character named The Doctor, who travels around the universe in a [[time machine]] called the Tardis, which resembles a classic British telephone "box" (i.e. a phone booth, but made of cast iron, painted red, and virtually indestructible) but is much bigger inside than outside, usually with a female companion that he picks up along the way.

The program was initially cancelled in 1990, following some years of declining interest, but was resurrected for a TV movie in 1996. A new set of series began in 2005 with a much improved budget and more consistently high-quality acting and writing.
