Tales of the TARDIS is a Doctor Who spin-off series created to celebrate Doctor Who’s 60th anniversary. The series consists of six episodes, and will be exclusively available at The Whoniverse, a new home on BBC iPlayer for all DWU content.

The spin-off was executive-produced by current Doctor Who showrunner Russell T Davies along with Julie Gardner and Jane Tranter, and was written by Davies, Pete McTighe and Phil Ford. Sam Watts, the composer for The Sarah Jane Adventures, returned to score the series.

Overview

In DWM 596, script editor Scott Handcock cryptically referred to an August kick-off meeting for something called "TOTT". Fans speculated over what this acronym could stand for, with the most popular suggestion being "Tales of the TARDIS". Tales of the TARDIS was then officially announced on 30 October, 2023

Russell T Davies clarified on Instagram that, though the BBC and Bad Wolf had struck a production and distribution deal with Disney Branded Television for new episodes of Doctor Who, there are currently no plans to bring TOTT to Disney+, with "no Disney money" being involved in the series's production. For the time being, the series will be exclusively avaiable in the UK via BBC iPlayer.
