Doctor Who was depicted in several sources considered by this Wiki as "invalid sources".
== History ==
=== 20th century ===
==== 1960s ====
By one account, Verity Lambert got the idea to cast William Hartnell as the First Doctor after seeing him in the dreary kitchen-sink drama film, This Sporting Life. (COMIC: Doctor Whoah!)
For the 1968 episode, The Mind Robber, a much uglier actor was originally cast to fill in for Frazer Hines in a scene where the Second Doctor would have failed miserably at the "face fit" task. (COMIC: Doctor Whoah!)
==== 1970s ====
A bubble-bath Dalek was released. (COMIC: Doctor Whoah!)
Tom Baker was cast as the Fourth Doctor after he wrote a polite letter to the BBC asking for an acting job. The following day, he wrote a letter to Mr Cadbury, asking for an entire castle made out of chocolate. (COMIC: Doctor Whoah!)
==== 1980s ====
The series in this decade was the subject of a book called Doctor Who: The Eighties. The Tenth Doctor possessed a copy of this book, which he once tried to use to charge up the TARDIS's last remaining power cell. (COMIC: Doctor Whoah! 375)
==== 1990s ====
In 1993, the proposed 30th anniversary special, The Dark Dimension, was abandoned after an argument broke out amongst the actors over the size of Tom Baker's part. (COMIC: Doctor Whoah!)
=== 21st century ===
==== 2000s ====
During the filming of an episode around Christmas 2005, a miscommunication between Russell T. Davies and the BBC Wales design department meant that fifty extras dressed as sticklebacks had to be hastily re-costumed. (COMIC: Doctor Whoah!)
On the set of New Earth, the design department attempted to make the Catkind "ultra realistic" - by taking an actual cat and putting it on the head of an extra - an idea that proved impractical. (COMIC: Doctor Whoah!)
Two employees from ITV attempted to knock Doctor Who out of the ratings by nailing planks of wood over the entrance to the BBC Upper Boat studio. (COMIC: Doctor Whoah!)
After seeing the Judoon in Smith and Jones, Stike and Varl chewed out their agent for not getting them the part, which called for a "chunky, militaristic alien race". (COMIC: Doctor Whoah!)
After the Macra returned to the show, several classic era villains waited around the phone hoping to get the call to return themselves. (COMIC: Doctor Whoah!)

In 2008, the BBC announced that they had cast both Withnail and I as the Tenth Doctor. (COMIC: Doctor What)
Matt Smith was cast as the Eleventh Doctor, among other reasons, for his incredibly "Doctor Who-ish" hair. Smith admitted in an interview for The Mind Probe that he did not know what they meant by this, not realising his hair was moulded into the shape of a giant question mark. (COMIC: Doctor Whoah!, The Mind Probe)
==== 2010s ====
Due to a typo, the episode, Let's Kill Hitler, briefly became a knockabout comedy called "Lets Kiss Hitler", which was about Amy Pond and Rory Williams chasing him, trying to do exactly as the misspelled title suggested. (COMIC: Doctor Whoah!)
==== 2070s ====
