Behind the scenes
- During the late 1980s (even before the original series was cancelled) and early 1990s (prior to the TV movie being produced), the Walt Disney Company, of which Disney Parks and Resorts is just one part (though one of the most famous), acquired ESPN, ABC (The American Broadcasting Corporation) and more and has since acquired Marvel (2009). During that time period, Disney attempted to buy the rights to Doctor Who and its video library from the BBC, and had they been sold the rights, they would have set up a walk-through exhibition of what it's like inside a TARDIS at Tomorrowland. They even planned that, when the need came, they would announce who the next Doctor would be at Disneyland during a press conference at Tommorowland (rather then at the BBC news studios like the BBC did).[source needed]
- During the 1970s, Doctor Who attempted to have a episode filmed on location at Disneyland - which would mean the original in Anaheim - involving the Third Doctor; then when Jon Pertwee left the show, the Fourth Doctor, tracking down an alien at the theme park. However, budget restraints forbade it.[source needed]
- In August 1975 the only direct Disney-Who connection to date was made when Tom Baker, in character as the Fourth Doctor, guest-hosted an edition of Disney Time in which he appeared in filmed inserts introducing clips from Disney films as Fantasia and The Jungle Book and spoke of not having seen Mickey Mouse since his debut in 1928 (including with Steamboat Willie)[1]
- John Debney, who has composed music for Doctor Who, was also responsible for composing music for the SpectroMagic night parade alongside Steve Skorija.
