This article is written from the Real World point of view.

Doctor Who at the BBC is an ongoing series of made-for-audio documentaries released by BBC Audio on an off-and-on basis since 2003.

It was in January 2004 (according to the sleevenotes with Doctor Who at the BBC Volume 2), that BBC Audio launched a plea via the pages of the BBC Cult website, Doctor Who Magazine, SFX, TV Zone and others, for anyone with recordings of Doctor Who radio and TV features between 1963 and the present day to get in touch. The Doctor Who at the BBC series is a collection of such items.

Initially narrated by Nicholas Courtney, and later Elizabeth Sladen, most entries in the series feature audio clips from numerous TV and radio interviews and parodies of Doctor Who over the years, initially involving the original series, and later moving into the revival.

There was no 2008 release in the series.
