TWO HOUR BACK–TO-BACK DOCTOR WHO REVISITED SPECIALS THIS SUNDAY ON UKTV

The first four Doctor Who revisited specials from BBC America will air this Sunday, August 18 from 4:30pm on UKTV.

These programmes provide an introduction to each of the previous incarnations of the Doctor and are designed to work alongside a specially curated selection of stories. These specials feature:

  • interviews with key cast and crew,
  • classic clips,
  • a montage of the Doctors’ key moments, iconic lines and monsters and contributions from Steven Moffat, John Barrowman, David Tennant, Caroline Skinner and Neil Gaiman, among others.

These specials are the perfect companion pieces to some of the classic and newer Doctor Who series.


Schedule change details

The original schedule had the two BBC America documentaries The Story of Doctor Who and The Timey-Wimey of Doctor Who in those timeslots instead.
