Doctor Who

It wasn't that long ago that is it looked like Netflix was set to remove Doctor Who from the British catalogue. And yet despite warnings flashing up when you watched an episode, the show didn't actually go anyway and fans remained happy. So why those warnings flashed up despite Netflix denying the show was going anywhere is anyones guess, but in some interesting and good news, the BBC has done what people hoped and brought its flagship sci-fi series back to iPlayer in full (for the relaunched Doctor Who episodes anyway).

As of today, the BBC has brought back every single episode of the relaunched Doctor Who to iPlayer, stretching all the way back to 2005's Rose when we were first introduced to the Ninth Doctor (Christopher Eccleston). The great news to this, is that it also includes all the specials, and the excellent webisode The Night of the Doctor, that brought back Paul McGann's Eight Doctor for his long-overdue death scene.

The bad news though is that it will only be the Doctor Who episodes since the 2205 relaunch, so won't be including any of the classic episodes. If you want to watch them you'll either have to buy them on DVD or tune into the Twitch marathon that is currently ongoing.
