The long-running sci-fi series will now appear on the global service.
While Doctor Who is one of the longest-running science fiction TV series of all-time, it’s not quite as global a product as say Star Trek, and is more a UK-based product. However, this is seemingly soon set to change, as the BBC has entered into an agreement with Disney to see Doctor Who coming to Disney+ exclusively for all viewers outside of the UK and Ireland.
As noted in a press release, we’re told that this will mark a move to „transform Doctor Who into a global franchise for UK audiences and the rest of the world.
