10 Times Doctor Who Appeared In Other TV Shows - Commenter Edition

10. Red Dwarf

Classic British sci-fi comedy Red Dwarf doesn't take itself too seriously in the least, so it's exactly the type of show you'd expect to contain a fun Doctor Who easter egg.

In the episode Demons & Angels, the Red Dwarf crew accidentally creates good and evil copies of their ship, which leads to the original ship blowing up. As the crew escapes this explosion by blasting through the cargo bay doors using the Starbug, you might be able to spot a certain blue box tucked away in the background.

Of course, we know that time travel does indeed exist in the Red Dwarf universe (the gang discovers a time travel device in the episode Out of Time), and with the TARDIS also kicking around, we can only assume that the Doctor is somewhere out there too, munching jammy dodgers and kicking Sontaran butts.

Red Dwarf and Doctor Who also crossed over in the 1998 special Red Dwarf A-Z, where two Daleks claim that the works of Shakespeare were written by a Dalek.

Ah yes, who could forget that classic Shakespeare quote "to exterminate, or not to exterminate... that is the question."
