Classic Doctor Who, low-res pixel style!

Doctor Who is back and I couldn’t be happier. But let’s have a look back at the pre-2005 era. Here’s all the (official) Doctors over the years from 1963 to 2005, with the ever-present Tardis (it doesn’t change very much) and a selection of five companions. Some Doctors had too many, especially from the black-and-white era, so I had to leave some out sorry! Others had few, so they’ve been filled out with non-televised companions from novels, audio, or comics. Some Doctors share companions! These I’ve assigned to the Doctor they’re most strongly associated with.
