List of Doctor Who parodies

An early televised Doctor Who spoof was on the Michael Bentine sketch show It's a Square World in December 1963, only a few weeks after the series first aired.

They land in England in the year 2010 and face off against the Cybermen, led by Thatchos and her sidekick Denos, parodies of the contemporary Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and her husband Denis.

An episode made for Comic Relief with celebrity appearances from Rowan Atkinson, Joanna Lumley, Hugh Grant, Richard E. Grant (later to appear in the webcast Scream of the Shalka and cast as Dr. Simeon in the 2012 Christmas episode The Snowmen), and Jim Broadbent as various incarnations of the Doctor and Jonathan Pryce as the Master.

In an episode of the ninth series of Doctors, Sylvester McCoy made a guest appearance, where he played a retired actor named Graham Capelli, who played a time traveler in a television show called The Lollipop Man, where he could travel through time with his traffic lollipop stick.

She eventually shows him a sci-fi series called Inspector Spacetime, a thinly veiled parody of Doctor Who.

Many parodies, fleshed-out backstories, and unauthorized straight-to-web videos (produced by and starring the original Inspector actor) have been created.

Orton also created the show and characters based on his experiences traveling in time with Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz to save the world from being taken over by evil pistachio monsters.

The episode includes spoofs of the eccentric Doctor, the time and space traveling TARDIS, and the longstanding android-esque alien villain Dalek.

[7] In the Dragon Magazine AD&D adventure "The City Beyond The Gate", the Fourth Doctor can be met (but not interacted with) as a short one-time random encounter.

In the April 2015 first issue of the Oni Press' original ongoing Rick and Morty comic book series, a part of the story arc The Wubba Lubba Dub Dub of Wall Street, a "time detective" based on the Doctor, named Professor Tock, is introduced as an adversary of Rick's, who wears a colorful suit, is prone to making watch-related puns, and manipulates Jerry Smith into giving up his son Morty and father-in-law Rick Sanchez to the Time Police.

In The Rickoning, on the run from Party Dog's criminal empire (who blame him for their boss' death), and drinking at a bar, mourning Mr. Sick, Jones is advised by a hooded figure (a member of the IllumiRicki) that separating Rick from his grandson Morty Smith (and acquiring more intelligence) will leave the former vulnerable.

[14] The British Go-Go's novelty single tried to turn the sinister Daleks into another version of The Chipmunks, and was originally released as one of the many products fueling Dalekmania.

However, as that craze fizzled out, the song was largely forgotten, with snippets occasionally appearing in Doctor Who anthological products.

[15] "Doctorin' the Tardis" is an electronic novelty pop single by The Timelords ("Time Boy" and "Lord Rock", aliases of Bill Drummond and Jimmy Cauty, better known as The KLF).

The song is predominantly a mash-up of the Doctor Who theme music, Gary Glitter's "Rock and Roll (Part Two)" with sections from "Blockbuster!"
