SEASON OVERVIEW:
Written and produced by Russell T. Davies (Queer as Folk, Mine All Mine), the resuscitated British cult favorite series depicts the adventures of a mysterious and eccentric alien Time Lord known as the Doctor, who struts across the barriers of the Universe at the stick of the TARDIS, a spaceship which, from the exterior, appears to be a blue 1950s British police box. Together with his companions, the Doctor explores time and space, battling aliens and monsters, saving civilizations, helping people and righting wrongs. His first and preeminent companion is Rose Tyler (Billie Piper, The Canterbury Tales, Secret Diary of a Call Girl), a 19-year-old working class shop assistant from London, whom he saved from an Auton invasion of Earth and to whom he grows increasingly attached.
The Doctor also travels briefly with Adam Mitchell (Bruno Langley, Linda Green, Coronation Street), a rebellious boy genius from the year 2012, and with Captain Jack Harkness (John Barrowman, Desperate Housewives, Arrow), a former con man from the 51st century. Among his other companions rank Martha Jones (Freema Agyeman, Torchwood, The Carrie Diaries), a medical student, Donna Noble (Catherine Tate, Wild West, The Office), a temp from Chiswick, London, Amy Pond (Karen Gillan, The Well, NTSF:SD:SUV::), a 7-year-old lonely girl, and Clara Oswin Oswald (Jenna-Louise Coleman, Waterloo Road, Dancing on the Edge), the sole survivor of the Starship Alaska.
The Doctor’s iconic adversaries include the Autons, the Daleks, the Cybermen, the Macra, the Master, the Sontarans, the Davros, the Time Lords (Rassilon), the Silurians, the Cybermats, the Great Intelligence, the Ice Warriors and a few new alien species… the Slitheen (Raxacoricofallapatorian), the Ood, the Judoon, the Weeping Angels and the Silence.
