Best Answer

In the very first story aired on 22 November 1963 the Tardis is on earth. Its chameleon circuit is burned out. The circuit made the TARDIS look like any other building or property from the time and space it landed in so disguising it from others. When the circuit was repaired the BBC decided to keep the shape of the police box so viewers could see it as it was (the cost of building new sets to make it look different in each episode was the main decision driver. The Police Box seen is an authentic representation of a police box used at the time in the UK.
