The existence of the TV series ''[[Doctor Who]]'' within the [[Doctor Who universe|''Doctor Who'' universe]] is a metafictional gimmick with a long and storied history within licensed ''Doctor Who'' fiction. The show itself stopped just shy of confirming the existence of a series called ''Doctor Who'' within its universe on two occasions; the first was in ''[[Remembrance of the Daleks (TV story)|Remembrance of the Daleks]]'', where a [[TV series (Remembrance of the Daleks)|TV series]] whose title began with "Doc…", and which debuted on the same date as the real-life ''Doctor Who'', was briefly mentioned — only for the characters (and viewers) to miss the full name of the programme. Many years later, a poster featuring the [[Twelfth Doctor]], [[Clara Oswald]] and [[the Doctor's TARDIS]] was glimpsed in the background of the [[Series 8 (Doctor Who)|Series 8]] episode ''[[In the Forest of the Night (TV story)|In the Forest of the Night]]'', but with no title visible. | The existence of the TV series ''[[Doctor Who]]'' within the [[Doctor Who universe|''Doctor Who'' universe]] is a metafictional gimmick with a long and storied history within licensed ''Doctor Who'' fiction.
