Doctor Who calendars

Official BBC licensed Doctor Who Merchandise has included since the mid 1980's almost regular calendar releases. Calendar releases are a time-limited marketing opportunity and production numbers are difficult to judge and so are usually either of limited availability (short supply) or heavily discounted to clear stocks in the new year (over supplied). Also included below are related calendar items and spin-off calendars, namely Torchwood (also by the BBC) and Dalek Calenders negotiated with the Terry Nation Estate who hold the Dalek license.
