v • e Ood stories

For the purposes of this list, an "Ood story" is one in which one living, authentic Ood plays a part within the confines of the story, outside of flashbacks to previous stories and cliffhangers that lead into the following story. For this reason, stories such as The Waters of Mars are not counted due to the Oods' appearance being defined by their importance to following stories. Stories like Face the Raven, Hell Bent and Revolution of the Daleks are also not included due to the Oods' cameos being of no consequence to the plot of the story.
