Doctor Who parodies

As a cultural phenomenon for nearly half a century, Doctor Who has been both the target of parody, as well as the frame of reference for satire of other subjects. All of these references are viewed as parody and therefore not-canon.

1970s

 * An episode of the children's variety series Crackerjack featured "Hello, My Dalek" including Don Maclean as a Tom Baker-ish Doctor Why and Peter Glaze as a portly Brigadier. The sketch takes place within the TARDIS, which has landed on top of the Post Office Tower. Harry is absent, having been despatched to hospital to have his duffelcoat removed. There's a cameo of a Dalek with a eyestalk in a fixed rampant position.
 * An episode of "Emu's Broadcasting Company" (aka EBC1) featured puppeteer Rod Hull and his permanently attached avian sidekick Emu as a gestalt Doctor battling the Deadly Dustbins (with their war cry "Rubbish! Rubbish!"). The TARDIS in this segment was seen to be a red UK telephone kiosk.
 * An episode of the London Weekend Television sketch show "End Of Part One" (directed by Geoffrey Sax) featured a spoof called Doctor Eyes. Fred Harris played the Doctor, who is shot through his contract and is quickly replaced by Tony Aitken. Sue Holderness played a Romana-like Gloria
 * An episode of Spike Milligan's "Q" series featured the sketch "Pakistani Daleks" in which a turban-wearing Dalek is shown living in a suburban home with a human wife, Dalek child, granny and dog. The chant "Put them in the curry" followed the extermination of the last two

1980s

 * A 1986 instalment of The Lenny Henry Show included a sketch with Henry as the Doctor battling the Cybermen and their leader Thatchos, a Cyberman version of Margaret Thatcher, complete with bouffant hair and purse.
 * In a sketch from French &amp; Saunders, Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders appeared as extras playing Silurians on the actual set of The Trial of a Time Lord until all concerned, including the extras got bogged down in a discussion of made-up Doctor Who universe continuity. The two eventually brought the filming of an episode to a halt. Though it was never aired, the sketch was included with the home release of the later The Curse of Fatal Death.
 * An episode of Victoria Wood As Seen On TV featured Jim Broadbent as a Tom Baker-ish Doctor vs. an old nemesis called Crayola (a brand of wax crayon)

1990s

 * The Curse of Fatal Death, a multi-part sketch broadcast as part of the Comic Relief charity telethon in 1999, starred Rowan Atkinson as the Ninth Doctor, Richard E. Grant as the Tenth Doctor, Jim Broadbent as the Eleventh Doctor, Hugh Grant as the Twelfth Doctor and Joanna Lumley as the female Thirteenth Doctor.

2000s
In the special, Ricky is reluctantly cast as a slug-like alien called Shlong. David Tennant reprises his role as the Tenth Doctor in a cameo appearance. A brief clip of the episode is shown in which the Doctor and an unidentified companion, a female police constable, are attacked by Shlong. The Doctor describes the attack as "hyper-podulating", a manipulation of "molluskian glang valves to internally vibrate our DNA", a process that will turn its victims into slugs in roughly thirty seconds. Shlong is quickly dispatched when the Doctor throws table salt on him.
 * The comic impressions show Dead Ringers has featured a number of Who related sketches in its radio and TV incarnations. The earliest examples featured Jon Culshaw making spoof phones calls to retailers and service providers in the guise of the fourth Doctor. Radio sketches included calling B&Q to get a quote for a sonic screwdriver, enquiring of a taxi to take him to Gallifrey and calling NASA for the loan of a space shuttle. In the TV version, Culshaw appeared in costume as Doctor 4, attempting to buy a transdimensional wardrobe from a furniture shop. Another sketch involved the Doctor taking part in the TV show 'Living With the Enemy' in which he lived with the Cyberman family.
 * Other Dead Ringers sketches included Phil Cornwell as Christopher Eccleston. In it, the actor returned home to find his family disappointed by his role as the Doctor as they are Star Trek fans. Eccleston's mum was supposed to have made his prominent "Ferengi" ears. Another sketch featured Culshaw and Jan Ravens in character as the Tenth Doctor and Rose Tyler. In it, they complain about the overly loud background music and elect to read their own subtitles. In a multi-Doctor sketch, the Tenth Doctor spends Christmas with some of his former incarnations and tries unsuccessfully to get them to watch the Christmas Special. It features Culshaw as the Fourth and Tenth Doctors, Cornwell as the Ninth, Kevin Connelly as the Seventh Doctor and Mark Perry as the Second Doctor.
 * In 2005 The Chaser's War on Everything, a current affairs satire program produced by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC), aired a parody song sung by Andrew Hansen, a self declared Doctor Who fan. The song featured Hansen as a Doctor Who fan (from the 'Woolongong Doctor Who Fan Club') playing a Doctor Who tribute song based on the Doctor Who theme, singing about how if you're a fan of Doctor Who, you're a social outcast. All actors who played the Doctor were mentioned (including David Tennant who had at the time just been announced to the public as the Tenth Doctor, Peter Cushing and Richard E. Grant), as well as Robert Holmes, (with references to Scream of the Shalka and various companions.)
 * The Christmas 2006 episode of The Vicar of Dibley featured a Doctor Who-themed wedding withactual BBC Dalek props, as well as a bridesmaid dressed in David Tennant's Tenth Doctor costume. A previous episode of the same series also had the suggestion that a wedding dress should be decorated with hearts, each one containing a different image of the Doctor's various incarnations.
 * It was around this time that the Basil Brush show made two sketches, Doctor Why and Doctor How.
 * In the premiere of Series 4 of The Sunday Night Project, which aired on 5 January, Justin Lee Colins (wearing the Tenth Doctor's outfit) starred as the Doctor in a spoof of Doctor Who. He travelled to the Pink Planet with his "gorgeous time travelling assistant" played by David Tennant in drag. There they faced "the most evil Time Lord of them all, the Gaylord", played by Alan Carr. After this came other aliens which the assistant thought were the Daleks. The Doctor explained that these creatures were far worse, the Carrleks. The Carrleks had Dalek skirts and were played by two men painted silver. They had Alan Carr's glasses and teeth, while Alan Carr in a silver catsuit played the Carrlek supreme.
 * The 2007 "Extra Special Series Finale" of the comedy series Extras featured Ricky Gervais as struggling actor Andy Millman playing an alien villain opposite David Tennant in a fictional Doctor Who story. The finale showed a brief excerpt from his death scene.

2010s

 * In a 2010 episode of Harry and Paul, starring Harry Enfield and Paul Whithouse, they performed a sketch called 'Rockin' the TARDIS', or 'Doctor Who: The ITV Years'. The Doctor (Harry) and his companion (Paul) crash land on the planet Woompa-woof', the planet of gay people. Suddenly, three three-breasted woman come along and start dancing with the Doctor and his companion. The FunnyBot.png sketch is played out like a cheaply made sitcom. Another sketch was shown. This involved them playing two characters from 'On the Buses'.
 * In a 2011 episode of South Park, the Germans created a "Funnybot" to try and convince the world they could be funny. The FunnyBot was very similar to a Dalek, with a plunger and eye stalk,. On several occasions  it yelled "Exterminate!" or "Exterminate all humans!" (He believed it would be of the most ultimate irony for a human-created robot to kill the humans, thus being the worlds funniest, and indeed last, joke.)
 * In honour of Steven Moffat's presence at the Paris Comic Con, the french Cable TV Station Nolife broadcast a Doctor Who parody, spoofing at the same time The 11th Doctor, Amy, The Rubik's Cube, and Terminator. You can watch it here.(caution : the language might not be appropriate for children)
 * In a 2011 episode of Community, Britta introduces Abed to "a British science fiction show that's been running since 1962."
