A number of unauthorized versions of Doctor Who and of the Doctor have appeared.

Audio

  • BBV introduced Sylvester McCoy as "the Professor", later (for legal reasons), "the Dominie", with Sophie Aldred as "Ace", later Alice. The audios featured scripts by, among others, Robert Shearman (under a pseudonym), Mark Gatiss and Nigel Fairs.
  • The Wanderer or Fred, played by Nicholas Briggs in the BBV audio adventures Cyber-Hunt and Vital Signs is loosely based on the Doctor as portrayed by Briggs in the Audio Visuals fan audio series. In Cyber-Hunt, he comes up against Cyberons.
  • Lalla Ward and John Leeson reprised their roles as Romana and K-9, respectively, for a series of audio dramas called The Mistress and K-9. While the producers of these audios were able to licence K-9, they couldn't licence Romana, thus she was never referred to by this name. Later, when Big Finish obtained a full licence to produce Doctor Who-based audio dramas, Ward was once again able to perform the character as Romana.

Comics

  • The Wildstorm comic book The Establishment featured Mister Pharmacist, who resembled a much darker and sinister version of the Fourth Doctor. He worked alongside a team of super-secret agents based on other characters from British fantasy and adventure television series. The Establishment made many other allusions to this genre and to British pulp fiction.

In-Universe Pastiches

The Doctor Who Universe itself has a pastiche version of Doctor Who, called Professor X. Bernice Summerfield briefly visited that fictional universe and met Professor X during No Future.
