Du solltest mal im Off-Topic nach Dr. Who fragen. Da hier viele SF-Fans sind, wird bestimmt jemand bescheid wissen.
Ahh, da ist auch ein FAQ:
Doctor Who is, or was, the longest-running science-fiction series in
the history of television. Created by the BBC in 1963 as a children's
sci-fi series, Doctor Who eventually expanded its boundaries
to just about every possible genre of television except for the musical.
Spanning 26 seasons, the original BBC series had seven different actors
taking on the lead role. Doctor Who was famous for its infinite
flexibility and wide, dedicated, fan following. The show celebrated
its 30th anniversary on November the 23rd, 1993.
The 158th and final BBC produced Doctor Who story, "Survival", aired in
December of 1989. No further episodes have been produced by the BBC over
the past six years, even though the show was never officially cancelled.
In spite of this, Doctor Who lives on today, on the radio and in a popular
series of full-length novels.
In 1996, a television movie, made by Universal and the BBC continued the
story line. It was hoped that this would lead to another series of shows,
but the fate of Doctor Who is still undecided at this time.
FAQ Item 1.3 - Just who is the Doctor?
The Doctor is a Time Lord, one of the elite of the planet Gallifrey. The
Time Lords are an immensely old and powerful society who have the ability
to travel through time in their TARDISes, but whose policy is not to
interfere with the rest of the universe. Instead, they simply observe and
act only when absolutely necessary. Gallifreyan society, ruled by the
High Council, is a dull and stagnant affair; some might even say that it
is slowly decaying.
The Doctor, of the Prydonian group of Time Lords, fled Gallifrey at some
point (ostensibly because of boredom) and is now living the life of a
renegade. His interference with space and time is in direct contravention
to Time Lord policy, and he has twice been tried on this point. Despite
this, the Doctor continues to traverse the galaxy, often with a companion
or two, battling evil and oppression in all its many guises.
As a Time Lord, the Doctor has two hearts and can withstand temperature
extremes better than humans. They have a symbiotic link with their time
machines. They can also regenerate when their present body is worn out or
dying.
