Who is Doctor Who?

"Doctor who?"  For those living outside the UK and Commonwealth countries, that statement is not unusual.  But for those in the UK--and for sci-fi aficionados the world over--Doctor Who is a cultural phenomenon.  This top-rated, award-winning, BBC television show has aired for a remarkable 50 years.  And nowadays, it may be more popular than ever.  By all means, if you call yourself an Anglophile, you need to know and understand the basics of Doctor Who.  Toward that end, I offer you two tools--an article and a video--both of which give viewers all the background info they need to jump on the Doctor Who bandwagon and share a rollicking good time with the rest of us!


TOOL #1
Short feature article (by A.V. Club): Doctor Who Primer 
DOCTOR WHO PRIMER

TOOL #2
22-minute video: Doctor Who 101


DOCTOR WHO NEWS ALERT
Picture
In March, the Royal Mail will release its new Doctor Who stamp collection, marking the 50th anniversary of the immensely successful sci-fi TV show, Doctor Who, and saluting the actors who have played the famed role.

All eleven actors who've played Doctor Who will grace a first-class stamp...and four of the show's top villains will appear on a set of second-class stamps.
