List of Doctor Who parodies


The long-running science fiction television series Doctor Who has over the years been the subject of many comedy sketches and specially made comedy programmes, from Spike Milligan's "Pakistani Dalek" to the Comic Relief episode Doctor Who and the Curse of Fatal Death. There have been occasional parodies and references to Doctor Who on American TV shows such as Community, Saturday Night Live, The Simpsons, Late Night with Conan O'Brien, Robot Chicken, and The Colbert Report. What follows below is a chronological list of Doctor Who parody, categorized by medium:

An early televised Doctor Who spoof was on the Michael Bentine sketch show It's a Square World in December 1963, only a few weeks after the series first aired. Season 6, Episode 8, broadcast on New Year's Eve, featured Clive Dunn playing a scientist called Doctor Fotheringown ("Doctor Who?" / "No, not Doctor Who, Doctor Fotheringown!"), for which Dunn wore William Hartnell's First Doctor costume and wig. The sketch, which was recorded on 16 and 20 December 1963, also featured Wilfrid Brambell and Patrick Moore.

Hosted by Mike and Bernie Winters, Big Night Out was an ITV variety show. A skit entitled Doctor Shmoo, featuring Bernie as the Doctor and Mike as his unnamed companion together facing two stylised Daleks, began the edition that aired on 7 April 1964. Both males are referred to as "Earthlings" by one of the Daleks, while the Doctor calls the TARDIS a rocket. The overlaid graphic for the skit's title used a font very similar to that employed for Doctor Who's own title graphic, with the standard theme music being used unchanged at the start of the sketch.
