A 17-page website article, with videos, that covers not only the main 
"Doctor Who" show and the spin-offs, but also briefly mentions the 
other shows such as "Doctor Who Confidential". (No mention of the "K-9 
Adventures" series, the webisodes, nor the computer games.)


    Every Doctor Who Title Sequence Ranked Worst To Best (2025)
    -----------------------------------------------------------
    For such a famous sequence, the Doctor Who titles sure have
    been through some changes over the years...but which is
    better?

    From the TARDIS to the Daleks to the sonic screwdriver,
    Doctor Who has many iconic elements which are recognisable
    to even those who aren't diehard fans of the franchise. 

    Amongst those elements is the opening title sequence. Over
    the past 62 years, the title sequence has been through many
    changes and adaptations, both visually and audibly, whilst
    also remaining consistent enough to maintain its iconic
    status. Some changes have been minor, switching out one
    actor's face for another, while others have showcased major
    progression is special effects and elevated the show to a
    whole new level. 

    So let's take a look at each variation, plus a few additions
    from elsewhere in the Whoniverse, and determine which is the
    worst and which is the best.

    Hold on to your fezzes, folks. It's gonna be a wibbly wobbly
    ride...
