Cumberbatch's Sherlock actually looks and acts as if he himself could be a version of the Doctor

So the Doctor met the Binks. I don't know how true it is but somewhere I've read that Huyang, a droid professor who taught many Jedi younglings how to construct their own sabre, is said to have arrived at the Jedi Temple in a blue box. Also, the voice actor of Huyang is David Tennant.

The very first episode of Chelmsford 123 shows the TARDIS materialising behind Aulos Paulinus (Jimmy Mulvehill) and Gratientus (Philip Pope) when they first arrive in Britain. A silhouette in long scarf and fedora comes out of the TARDIS, has a look around, goes back into the TARDIS and dematerialises.

Lmao good to know my birthday is also “national fish fingers and custard day”

At a pantomime I went to years back for sleeping beauty there was a part of the act where they had to wait for everyone to wake up so the dr who theme played as a Tardis suddenly slowly came from the top to just land on the bottom. As the characters got in the Tardis slowly rising to the top then the pantomime continues as normal… “To be honest it was the most random thing I have ever seen but I was so happy that they added something dr who related In the pantomime.”

I’d probably say one of the stranger ones is Doctor Whooves from my little pony. In the show they don’t do that much referencing of the main show (they made him wear 4’s scarf and say allons-y in one episode, also was seen multiple times with a pony called rose) But in one of the mlp comics my man had a literal TARDIS that was shaped like a muffin. It was really bizarre.

I’ve been watching Doctor Who since the 1970’s. I really enjoy finding Doctor Who Easter eggs in comics , games etc.

1) New Zealand Superannuation commercial featured Tom Baker in character as The Doctor in the late 90s. 2) Prime Computer ads in the early 80s featured Tom Baker and Lala Ward both in character. 3) The Orville mentions Doctor Who in passing in an episode. This isn't too unusual as many TV shows (e.g. Futurama) have also referenced it. But The Orville is the closest thing to Star Trek. Seeing it canonized as a TV show in-universe is just a little special.

I'm glad that Mr. Pickles is working on Doctor Who! I'd been saying for years that he should be working on the show after seeing his animation of the Tardis in flight.
-
WOW, I'm very impressed with things I genuinely did not know about Dr Who, kudos to the channel, very, very well done on this one :)

In comics, the 4th Doctor encountered Kirk and his crew, while the 11th encountered Picard et al in the miniseries Assimilation^2
-
Seeing that ad of Daleks selling cigars is reminiscent to an old ad that had Fred Flintstone singing about the great taste of cigarettes.
-
Also, Tom Baker being the voice of BT text service sort-of counts, especially if you ever visited the website where he was programmed to sing.

Dr Strange and dr who - that’d be a show!

Apparently there's a Doctor Who reference in Captain Pugwash (1965). The Tardis can be just about seen in an artwork called The Flying Citadel which is set in D&D's Dragonlance. And in series 3 of Red Dwarf the Tardis was quite often seen parked just outside the Spacebug hangar.

I have watched John Smith VFX's WhoLock dosens of times. It teases me in an terrible, yet amazing way. I had never heard that the creator of the video actually got a job on Doctor Who. That is absolutely amazing!!!! I wonder what he is doing today.
-
The doctor is vaguely mentioned as being known to and possibly working with John Constantine in an episode of DC Legends of Tomorrow. Constantine mentions time travel in his past and some timey wimey guy.
-
At my town's pantomime last year, the doctor just appeared out of nowhere and gave no relevance to the plot...
-
Maybe not a complete surprise, but in a scene in Russell T. Davies's heartbreaking AIDS drama series "It's a Sin," lead character Ritchie Tozer is an actor whose character confronts the Daleks. It's an homage to "Remembrance of the Daleks" -- specifically to DW actor and AIDS activist Dursley McLinden. (The "Sin" version is called "Regression of the Daleks.")
