Premise
Timelords travel through time with the aid of devices
called TARDISes (Time and Relative Dimensions in Space), handy gadgets
that can -- theoretically -- transform themselves to appear as virtually
anything. The Doctor, however, has a *small* problem with his TARDIS
-- it's permanently stuck in the shape of a blue police call box.
Not to worry. He can still go anywhere in any time and have plenty
of adventures!

the world over.
