Doctor Who parodies

1980s

 * A 1986 installment 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 bouvant hair and purse.
 * In a sketch from French & 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 bring 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.

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

 * The Christmas 2006 episode of The Vicar of Dibley featured a Doctor Who-themed wedding, including actual BBC Dalek props, as well as a bride 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.
 * 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.
 * In the special, Ricky is reluctantly cast as a slug-like alien called Shlong. David Tennant reprises his role as the 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.

2000s

 * In March 2007, the first issue of BeanoMAX was published. The Daleks featured in the Balloonatics comic strip and The Invasion of Bash Street comic strip.
