About this quiz
Doctor Who began on the BBC in 1963. When the Doctor is close to death the character regenerates, which lets a new actor take over the part.
- David Tennant has played two numbered Doctors, the Tenth and the Fourteenth.
- Two Bakers have played the Doctor: Tom Baker was the Fourth and Colin Baker the Sixth. Baker on its own fills both.
- John Hurt's War Doctor and Jo Martin's Fugitive Doctor are not given a number.
- The year shown can be earlier than a Doctor's first full story, because it counts the regeneration scene.
