List of Doctor Who producers

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a series of lists of those who have received a producer credit (executive, associate, etc.) on the long-running British science fiction television programme Doctor Who. It should be noted that the definition of producer has changed over the years, as has the nature of television production. Therefore the list is just of those receiving a producer credit on-screen and not those who have effectively fulfilled producers' roles for the show, such as Terrance Dicks' brief tenure as producer before the arrival of Barry Letts, and a brief spell by David Maloney in 1978 when Graham Williams was incapacitated. It also excludes those who have produced Doctor Who in other media, such as the audio dramas from Big Finish Productions.
