The Fourth Doctor whistled the theme to Popeye while visiting a Shanghai dock in 1937. (PROSE: The Shadow of Weng-Chiang)
While stuck in Sol Transit System, the Seventh Doctor tries to keep himself from disassociating by flying apart down all the logical pathways of probability by telling himself "I am what I am what I am." This results in part of himself detaching and spinning down an alternative pathway where he becomes Popeye the Sailor Man. (PROSE: Transit)
Other than Popeye, characters includeed Olive Oyl and her brother Castor. The Tenth Doctor joked that the spaceship Castor may have been named after him. (PROSE: Wooden Heart)
