All 26 classic seasons and everything since 2005, plus Torchwood, Sarah Jane and the specials.
Do not start at the beginning. The 1963 run is 26 seasons long and the BBC wiped much of its own 1960s archive, so a straight chronological watch is not merely daunting: it is impossible, because episodes are missing. Start with the 2005 revival, which was built to be a jumping-on point.
Seen some of these already? Tap the circles to tick them off. The full list below fills in as you go.
Written from scratch to explain the Doctor, the TARDIS and the whole premise to someone who knows nothing, through a shop girl who also knows nothing. Thirteen episodes, one complete arc, a proper ending.
Watched out of order on purpose. It is the single most-recommended standalone in the show's history, it needs no context at all, and it is the one people mean when they say Doctor Who can be frightening.
A total soft reset, new Doctor, new companion, new showrunner, and widely called the best introduction to a Doctor the show has ever done. A second, equally valid place to have started.
Then what? From here go forward into Series 2 for the Tennant era, or sideways into the 2024 relaunch, which the BBC deliberately renumbered as Season 1 to signal a clean start. The classic era is something to dip into later, never a place to begin.
A suggested way in, not an official one. The full list is below: tick anything off in either place.
Your progress is saved on this device automatically. The code below takes a copy out and puts it back. Moving a whole list onto a device that has nothing on it yet is part of the subscription.
The code holds only this franchise. The link opens the tracker with your progress already filled in, good for showing someone where you're at. The image is a picture you can keep anywhere: scan the code on it with a phone, or drag the file back in below.
Every franchise you have touched, in one code.
Scan it with another device's camera, or paste the code in below. It never leaves your browser.
This reads the progress stored inside the picture, so nothing has to be retyped. If the image has been through a messaging app it may have been re-encoded and lost that: scan the code on it instead, or copy the code printed along the bottom.
Takes either kind of code. A single franchise code replaces that franchise, on any device. An everything code merges by default, so nothing you have ticked on this device is lost. Putting a whole list onto a device that has nothing on it yet is the part an account pays for.
Read only. This never changes what you have saved, and nothing leaves your browser. The code has to be their code for this same franchise: codes do not carry a name, so one from somewhere else may not be recognised as wrong.
Your email is confirmed and your account is ready. Everything you tick is saved on this device, as it always was.
Part of the subscription.
Your SagaList account.
Nothing else happens until you follow the link. If it has not arrived in a few minutes, look in your spam folder and search for SagaList. It is sent from a no-reply address on our own domain, so there is nothing to reply to.
Both addresses get an email: the new one to confirm it, and the old one so that nobody can move your account without you knowing. Nothing changes until you follow the link.
Signing out leaves everything you have ticked on this device exactly where it is. It only stops it syncing.
This removes your account, your email address, and the progress stored on our side. It cannot be undone and we cannot get it back for you.
This stops your subscription too. It is cancelled at Stripe in the same step, so nothing more is charged. The rest of this month is not refunded and you will not be able to use it, so cancel from Manage or cancel and delete later if you would rather keep it.
