{{real world}}
The '''''Doctor Who'' social media''' were a set of [[social media]] accounts specifically connected to the ''[[Doctor Who]]'' franchise as a way to communicate with the larger fanbase, to make announcements, make posts about the past, present and future of ''Doctor Who'' and post various behind-the-scenes content.

These social media accounts were not only restricted to the ''Doctor Who'' [[television]] series, but also extended to the equally huge [[Big Finish Productions]] as well as the various spin-off shows.
