BBC and Disney Branded Television announced that Disney+ will become the worldwide streaming home for upcoming seasons of Doctor WHO outside the United Kingdom and Ireland. The BBC will continue to broadcast and stream the series in the UK and Ireland, while Disney+ holds international streaming rights for the new seasons. The agreement centralizes international distribution for Doctor WHO, placing new episodes on a single global platform for most territories. This broadens the show's international audience, increases commercial opportunities for co-productions and merchandising, and makes new episodes easier for global viewers to find.
