The What if Doctor Who Wasn’t Axed? series began in 2016 exploring an alternate universe in which Doctor Who was never cancelled in 1989, instead continuing into a twenty-seventh season and beyond. Over the following decade, the project evolved into an expansive speculative series charting an alternate production history for the programme, continually revised and refined to reflect the most plausible version of events.

By 2021, the series had caught up to the present day, and since 2023 had been running with an appropriate distance behind real-world events, depicting a version of Doctor Who with an additional fifteen years of uninterrupted development.

Beginning on 22 June 2026, exactly a decade after the launch of the original video, the series restarted from the beginning with a brand-new documentary retelling of the WIDWWA timeline.
