Thirteen Doctors, one complicated timeline.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT From 1963 to the present, Doctor Who has seen thirteen different incarnations of the Doctor, and due to the complications of time travel, he has returned on multiple occasions. Over the years, different Doctors have reappeared on-screen for a multitude of adventures, constantly reminding audiences of the Doctor's long-spanning lifetimes.
11 First Doctor: 4 Times The First Doctor's initial appearance was in An Unearthly Child, which aired in November 1963. The First Doctor was originally played by William Hartnell up until the Doctor's first regeneration in 1966, after four seasons in the role. Hartnell then reprised the role for the special "The Three Doctors," celebrating the 10th anniversary of the show.
8 Fourth Doctor: 3 Times Lasting seven consecutive seasons, Tom Baker, played the Fourth Doctor from 1974 to 1981. As the Fourth Doctor, Baker is the longest-serving actor to play the Time Lord, across both the classic and modern eras of the show. The Fourth Doctor did appear in "The Five Doctors," although this incarnation didn't cross paths with any other Doctor, and the footage used had been taken from the unfinished "Shada" story.
6 Sixth Doctor: 2 Times From 1984 to 1986, the Sixth incarnation of the Doctor was portrayed by Colin Baker, and due to a BBC hiatus, only appeared in eight stories altogether. While traveling with Mel, the TARDIS is attacked by the Rani, leaving the Doctor injured and leading to his regeneration, although it was never explicitly explained on-screen what exactly caused it.
