Whoniverse on BBC iPlayer.

On BBC iPlayer, the Whoniverse is the name under which Doctor Who and related material is made available. As acknowledged by Russell T Davies, "the word Whoniverse was invented by fans, so it's time to give it official status." The service itself was announced on 31 October 2023[1] and launched on the next day on 1 November, coinciding with the 60th anniversary month of Doctor Who's original broadcast in 1963.

Following the announcement, the BBC unveiled a Whoniverse ident on social media platforms. This ident plays for all newly-created Doctor Who related programming on BBC iPlayer, starting with Tales of the TARDIS.[2] The ident made its televised debut on 23 November, the anniversary date, as it preceded the broadcast of both The Daleks in Colour [+]Loading...["The Daleks in Colour (TV story)"] and the 2023 re-release of An Adventure in Space and Time [+]Loading...["An Adventure in Space and Time (TV story)"] on BBC Four.
