Allowing

After many years of Doctor Who remaining in the UK, the BBC is cashing in by making deals. According to this article, the BBC is in talks to let Disney plus stream Doctor Who. Since returning to the BBC, exposure to Doctor Who has grown. Not so long ago, the BBC makes a deal with Pluto TV. Pluto has a channel airing all the available Doctor Who classic episodes. Now, the BBC looks to expand the possibilities of viewing Doctor Who. According to this post, the BBC made a deal with HBOMax to air Doctor Who in 2020.

A Deal

What does the working of this deal mean? To stream Doctor Who on Disney Plus means more exposure. Doctor Who is popular in many countries. Yeah, Doctor Who is a worldwide phenomenon. Therefore, the BBC wants to make more money with the one show known worldwide. Why not let Disney air your flagship program? It’s not like the network is free. Okay, it will not be fair because fans need a subscription to Disney Plus. Therefore Fans have more access to Doctor Who. Is this an answer to their desire? Maybe to stream Doctor Who on Disney Plus is wrong.

Exposure

For the BBC, the exposure is good. Disney Plus to stream Doctor Who makes sense. The reason is that they are a part of a large company. Disney touches the lives of many people. Some people will say, “they are only in the US.” Well, maybe that is true, but it makes the audience larger. How many people subscribe to Disney Plus? Streaming services are the way to go these days. They are the ones making the shows. Okay, the networks produce shows, but these services seem the only way to see some of them. In the end, the BBC wants to make money. Does this make the BBC more money? Therefore they make other television deals.

Conclusion

Doctor Who is not on air for several years because the BBC canceled it. Whovians miss the Doctor and his companions. What a dismal time! No Doctor Who, but Davies wants Doctor Who on air again. Therefore, he goes to the BBC. It doesn’t happen right away, but in 2005 he begins anew. Now, the BBC works to stream on Disney Plus.
