[[Image:Brigadier.jpg|right|150px]]
'''Brigadier Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart''' was one of the founders of [[UNIT]] ('''U'''nited '''N'''ations '''I'''ntelligence '''T'''askforce) and commander of its [[UK]] operations. His long association with [[the Doctor]] has caused some authorities to include him in rosters of the [[Time Lord]]'s [[List of companions|companions]], although he only actually travelled with the Doctor on a very few occassions. He was often referred to simply as "'''the Brigadier'''," and on rare occassions as "'''the Brig'''."  The [[Second Doctor|Second]] and [[Third Doctor]]s sometimes called him by his surname, while the [[Fourth Doctor]] at least once addressed him as "'''Alistair'''."
 
'''Colonel Lethbridge-Stewart''' first met [[the Doctor]] in the [[Time Lord]]'s [[Second Doctor|second incarnation]] during the [[Yeti]] attack on the [[London]] [[Underground]]. Four years after the Yeti invasion, UNIT was investigating the mysterious activities of electronics industrialist [[Tobias Vaughn]]. Vaughn was allied with the [[Cybermen]] in the first of their many attempts to invade and conquer Earth. With the assistance of the Second Doctor, the Brigadier and his men were able to thwart this invasion attempt ("[[The Invasion]]").

Welcome to the Tardis! We've regenerated.
This is the main wiki for the beloved BBC action-adventure and science-fantasy franchise Doctor Who... alongside spin-offs like Torchwood, The Sarah Jane Adventures, Class, and so many others.

We've now gone independent! See announcement for details.
114,085 articles • 3,737,178 edits
Your cosmic joyride awaits
Following the 60th anniversary specials and The Church on Ruby Road, the TARDIS is now home to Ncuti Gatwa's Fifteenth Doctor and Millie Gibson's Ruby Sunday, still under the watchful eyes of Russell T Davies's Bad Wolf crew. Click below to find out more!
New to Who?

Intimidated by the long history of Doctor Who? No need. You'll be able to jump right in with the next season, come springtime, and enjoy it as a brand new show! These four concepts are probably all you'll actually need.


If you want to know more, check out our guides on Doctor Who!
Explore the Whoniverse!
Doctor Who isn't the only series set in the Whoniverse to air on TV. Check out some others!

Doctor Who is a "family franchise", which means there's something in it for all ages.
It does not mean that all content is appropriate for all ages.

There's more than just TV

You can certainly choose to enjoy Doctor Who as purely a television series. But did you know that there are far more stories told in the comic and audio form than exist in the whole television catalogue? Luckily, there's no such thing as canon in this fandom. So you can enjoy exactly the kind of Doctor Who you prefer. And we'll be here to cover it all!

Take a trip in the memory TARDIS!
Tales of the TARDIS logo 2.jpg

Tales of the TARDIS is the first new spin-off to join the Whoniverse on BBC iPlayer. Each episode comprises a classic Doctor Who story edited into one omnibus-style episode, bookended by new scenes featuring members of the original cast in "a remembered TARDIS". It's a great place to start dipping your toes into Doctor Who's older stories, or to revisit old favourites!

Running from the Black Guardian?

Try out a random article from the Tardis Wiki! Like the Fourth Doctor's randomiser, this will take you anywhere in time and space... mostly Earth in the 20th or 21st centuries. Who knows what you'll find?

Listen to the Doctor and friends!
The Silent Scream.jpg

The Fourth Doctor Adventures is a range of full-cast audios with Tom Baker reprising the role of the Fourth Doctor. It revisits various periods of Tom Baker's era, featuring, at different times, Leela, Romana and K9, voiced by Louise Jameson, Mary Tamm / Lalla Ward and John Leeson respectively, all reprising their roles from the television series.

Stripped for Action!

The Night Walkers concluded the tale of the Second Doctor living in Time Lord-enforced exile in London for a few months prior to becoming the Third Doctor. Much of the story stressed how he had actually become a celebrity and was appearing on a television game show when the Time Lords finally caught up with him to impose the final punishment mentioned — but never quite seen — in his last televised story.

Enter the Game Station

Doctor Who and the Mines of Terror was a 1985 platform video game released for the BBC Micro and other gaming computers. The game featured the Sixth Doctor, traveling with a robotic cat companion named Splinx, attempting to stop the Tremas Master from disrupting the universe.
