Doctor Who (disambiguation)for other, similarly-named pages.
A version of the television series Doctor Who existed in the Daft Dimension. It chronicled the Doctor's adventures through time and space with their various companions. Uniquely to the version of the show in a more serious universe, where it was merely a work of fiction that bore a resemblance to their life, the Doctor and their world were simultaneously "fictional" while also physically existing, with the Doctor and their companions being seemingly aware of their placements as characters in the show.
History
1960s
The first episode was broadcast on the night of 23 November 1963. It was here where Doctor Who fandom was said to have officially began, with an argument between Arnold Grimsbottom and his brother over the significance of the unnamed policeman at the beginning of the episode, whom Arnold believed to be the main character. He decided to put his thoughts to paper, by creating the very first Doctor Who fanzine titled That Police Man in Episode One is the Main Character, I'm Sure of It!, using a Gestetner stencil printer, unfortunately meaning it would take some time for the ink to dry. (COMIC: The Secret History of Life Before Doctor Who Magazine!)
The following day, on the morning of 24 November, the world's first Doctor Who joke was created by a young Timmy Smith.
- "Knock knock!"
- "Who's there?"
- "Doctor!"
- "Doctor Who?"
- "Come along, Susan, into the TARDIS, hmm?"
He tried the joke out on his friends, who did not understand it, having not watched the show the night before. (COMIC: The Daft Dimension 584)
A few weeks later, the very first Dalek cosplay was accidentally created by Blackpool resident, Mavis Tannerworth; whilst cleaning up her kitchen, she talked about her new boyfriend, Nate, resulting in her holding a plunger and a whisk as she said that she was glad to have gone from her "ex to my Nate".
Around the same time, the first Doctor Who comic strip appeared in Televisual Comic. It strayed a little from the TV show in that it starred the First Doctor, his grandchildren, his best pal Sid, his neighbours Terry and June, and TARDIS conductor Jack.
Later still, the Dalek annuals began being published. Their success led a rival publisher, Cheapun Nastoy, to try publishing a Menoptera annual, but it never reached shops due to the delivery van breaking down.
In 1966, Doctor Who fans clashed with Thunderbirds fans in a Brighton tea shop over their last scone. This was considered to be a grim year for the Who fandom. (COMIC: The Secret History of Life Before Doctor Who Magazine!)
