Doctor Who

From BBC: "The new series will be back on BBC One in Autumn 2015." A more precise date is not currently known.

No, Romana did not die in the Time War in Doctor Who. Her fate was not shown or explicitly mentioned in the series.

The Cybermen first appeared in the British science fiction television series Doctor Who in 1966 in the serial titled "The Tenth Planet." They have since become one of the most iconic and enduring villains in the show's history.

It's been indicated for the fall of 2011 but the exact date hasn't been announced yet as of April 2011.

The TARDIS (Time and Relative Dimension in Space) has undergone several exterior changes throughout the history of "Doctor Who." The exact number of times varies depending on the inclusion of subtle modifications, but there have been around 14 major redesigns of the TARDIS exterior.

I'm noy sure that there is a specific number of floors for a TARDIS or even the TARDIS. But I should imagine that there are a fair few because a Type 40 TARDIS contains many bedrooms and bathrooms, maintenance bays, research labs, a swimming pool, a cinema, an immense wardrobe spanning many floors, and a garage.

All of this information has been collected from Doctor Who: The Visual Dictionary by Andrew Darling, Kerrie Dougherty, David John and Simon Beecroft.

Hope this helps :)

Yes. A new actor will be introduced as the new Doctor after Matt Smith leaves in the 2013 Christmas special.

A Time Lord is, according to the show, able to regenerate thirteen times. We're currently on the eleventh regeneration (played by Matt Smith), so, yes, eventually we will have at least two more Doctors.

There is some debate about whether or not they will continue the show after the thirteenth Doctor's death; there's a possibility that the writers will go against the history of the show and find a way for him to regenerate again, or maybe they'll just pass on the Doctor's legacy to a son we don't know about or a worthy companion.

It should be noted that in the series itself it has been strongly indicated since at least 1983 that 13 is not a hard and fast rule. In The Five Doctors and the 2007 episode The Sound of Drums it was indicated that the High Council of Time Lords had the ability to reset the regeneration cycle, as this was offered (and later given) to the Master. The Master also used various methods to gain more lives after his original 13. More recently, Russell T Davies, Steven Moffat and David Tennant have all downplayed the significance of the 13, and it is assumed it will simply be ignored when the time comes; for those who feel canon must be adhered to, the above reference to the High Council controlling regenerations provides the out: they no longer exist, therefore the 13-life cap no longer exists. In the Sarah Jane Adventures story "Death of the Doctor", the Doctor says he can regenerate 507 times. This was intended as a joke, according to Davies, but could end up being more the case down the line. One thing for sure - if Doctor Who remains as popular as it is now in 5-10 years when the actor or actress playing the 13th Doctor decides to leave the series, there is no way the series will end. They'll either ignore the limit completely, or "hand wave" it away. The introduction of a previously unknown incarnation of the Doctor in "The Name of the Doctor" - which could render the Doctor who follows Matt Smith at the end of the 2013 Christmas special as the 13th Doctor - has also increased the likelihood that a workaround will be used to avoid the limit. As of 2013, Doctor Who remains BBC Worldwide's top moneymaking series; they will not end it anytime soon.

At the end of season/series 5 of Doctor Who, a crack in the universe had completely eradicated everything but the earth from existence. The Doctor flew the Pandorica into the exploding TARDIS and scattered genetic and biological information about the entire universe to recreate it, in effect creating a second "big bang".

The Doctor stole the TARDIS, a time machine that can travel anywhere in time and space, when the TARDIS' former owner, known as the Corsair, left the doors unlocked. The Doctor then fled Gallifrey in the TARDIS and embarked on a life of adventures throughout time and space.

The TARDIS is a Type 40 time and relative dimension in space machine used by the Time Lords in the TV show "Doctor Who." It is much larger on the inside than the outside due to its time-travel capabilities. The TARDIS is capable of traveling to any point in time and space.

The Lord President engineered things, placing the sound of drums in the Master's mind as a child which was amplified in the present by all of his clones, as Gallifrey was being destroyed he sent a whitepoint star diamond to Earth to boost the signal and lock on to the source (the Master) through that they were able to escape the time lock and materialize on Earth along with Gallifrey.

No, Rose Tyler does not return for season 6 of Doctor Who. Her storyline was largely resolved in earlier seasons, and her character does not feature in the later seasons of the show.

John Simm played the role of the Master on Doctor Who, appearing in episodes alongside David Tennant and Matt Smith as the Doctor.

Origingally, the TARDIS, while being a police box, didn't actually have a phone that works. The phone in the little box at the front, behind the sign that says

Police Telephone

For Free Use of Public

Advice and Intelligence

Obtainable Immediately

Officers and Cars Respond to Urgent Calls

Pull to Open

doesn't actually work. It isn't connected to anything. We do see it ring in the episode the Empty Child, and the Doctor (Nine, at this point) is entirely shocked, because it isn't a phone.

However in the redesigned TARDIS in Series 5, it now has a working phone on the inside. The Doctor receives a phone call on it from Winston Churchill. However the number itself is not known.

It rings again in Series 7, 'The Bells of St John' - the phone is in fact the titular bell, close to the TARDIS' St Johns Ambulance logo.

The Sontarans first appeared in the Doctor Who storyline "The Time Warrior" in 1973. In this story, they were shown as a militaristic alien race seeking to conquer other planets. The Fourth Doctor, played by Tom Baker, encountered them for the first time.

The Cybermen have appeared in the following episodes (including the parallel, Pete's World Cybermen, but not including spin-off shows like Torchwood or audio plays, comic strips, etc.):

The Tenth Planet

The Moonbase

The Tomb of the Cybermen

The Wheel in Space

The Mind of Evil (hallucination; archival photo)

Carnival of Monsters (again, just a cameo)

So, that's 23 appearances in episodes of Doctor Who.

The fourth Doctor (Tom Baker) finished his time in the show with a story called Logopolis by Christopher H Bidmead. A four parter, it tells the story of how the Master tries to take control of the Universe (no suprises there!) using the technology of the Logopolitans which is called Block Transfer Computation. He makes a mess of things by not really understanding what he's doing and kills off Logopolis. This is unfortunate as it turns out Logopolis is holding the Universe back from the brink of collapse and the Master's meddling makes the Causal Nexus to start unravelling. Or whatever. Using some techno-babble, the Doctor and the Master knock up a device to keep things running, but not before Nyssa's home planet is destroyed. In the end, the Doctor falls off a giant radio telescope and dies, regenerating into Peter Davison. It's a good story, with some weird stuff going on with the Watcher and some very peculiar happenings inside the TARDIS. Things to try and avoid watching too closely include Adric and his moody acting, and Tegan, especially when she exclaims "Earth!". Tom Baker's performance is strangely joyless and intense, perhaps because it's his last one, but he still gets some dark humour in there, like when he tries (badly) to comfort Tegan ("There, there"). Recommended, as it's enjoyable and marks the end of an era for the programme.

Sir Derek Jacobi portrayed Professor Yana in the Doctor Who episode "Utopia."

The planet of the Timelords is called Gallifrey. It was destroyed in the Great Time War.

Saturday 23rd November 1963 (Also the day after JFK was shot, that's how I remember it)

"Doctor Who" first premiered on November 23, 1963, and has been running for over 50 years. It is one of the longest-running and most iconic science fiction television series in history.

It's Harkness, although that is not his real name, he stole the identity of the real Captain Jack during WW1.

His real identity is unknown.

TARDIS stands for Time And Relative Dimension(s) In Space.

the daleks first came into the show just around the third episode, considering that all the episodes back then were separated into two. the episode was named "dead planet" and afterwords the daleks became a major part of doctor who

He is a big Who fan and had Matt Smith on the show in November of 2010.
