Doctor Who at the BBC (documentary series)

Doctor Who at the BBC is an ongoing series of made-for-audio documentaries released by BBC Audio on an off-and-on basis since 2003.

Initially narrated by Nicholas Courtney, and later Elizabeth Sladen, most entries in the series feature audio clips from numerous TV and radio interviews and parodies of Doctor Who over the years, initially involving the original series, and later moving into the revival. The latest entry in the series Doctor Who at the BBC: A Legend Reborn is scheduled for release in November 2009.

The third volume of the series included a 10-minute mini-episode featuring Jon Pertwee and Elisabeth Sladen recorded for Glorious Goodwood in 1974, as well as the spoof BBCR: Whatever Happened to Susan Foreman?.

The fourth volume of the series featured a collection of original audio plays depicting how Doctor Who impacted British society, including appearances by Tom Baker and Sophie Aldred and one play dramatising the life of Delia Derbyshire.

There was no 2008 release in the series.

In October 2009, SFX Magazine #188 included a special Tom Baker Sampler CD which incorporated excerpts from the first two volumes of the Doctor Who at the BBC series. According to the CD's liner notes, as of fall 2009 these two releases are no longer available in physical media, only download.
