Graphic artist, also known as graphic designers, have been principally credited on BBC Wales programmes. They generally provide two-dimensional graphical elements, as seen on computer screens, set walls, and sometimes costumes, where logos are appropriate. The position has not often been credited on Doctor Who. This is largely because most graphics on at least Doctor Who have been handled by BBC Wales Graphics, or they've been the province of the more senior concept artists or associate designers. Nevertheless, a few people have been specifically credited as graphic artists or designers.

BBC Wales

At BBC Wales, graphic design has mostly been ascribed to BBC Wales Graphics under the title "Graphics". However, a few individuals have been cited as providing the service, often in addition to the credit for BBCWG. These individuals include:

Original series

In the original series, graphic design was almost never credited, because graphic design was not usually seen as a separate task from that of the "Designer" — a position today that hovers somewhere between a set designer and a production designer. However, at least one individual was so-credited. Sid Sutton was actually credited as "Graphic Designer" on The Leisure Hive, mostly for his work in redesigning the Doctor Who logo and title sequence.
