How to watch Doctor Who online: stream for free from the UK or abroad


Recommended Posts

So what did you think? Was series eleven of Doctor Who the success you were hoping for and what did you think Jodie Whittaker as the new Doctor? Ready for the end of season special? We're here to make sure you don't miss a single episode – regardless of whether or not you're in the UK - with our guide on how to watch Doctor Who online and TV.

In replacing Peter Capaldi, Whittaker became the first female Doctor and she's been accompanied in the Tardis by new characters Graham, Yasmin and Ryan, played by Bradley Walsh, Mandip Gill and Tosin Cole, respectively. 

More fresh impetus came with the arrival of Broadchurch creator Chris Chibnall, who takes over from Steven Moffat as showrunner. And judging from the reviews, it has been a rip roaring success story.

Watching in the UK is easy enough thanks to BBC iPlayer, but for those outside the country you need not miss out on Doctor Who as you can still tune in using a VPN service. How to get one of those, and which is best for you, can be found out below.
