Cbbc show Totally Doctor Who has just been added to the Whoniverse on iPlayer and is now available to watch again.
We truly were spoiled with behind the scenes goodies when Russell T Davies relaunched Doctor Who all the way back in 2005. The main attraction was Doctor Who Confidential (which screened on BBC Three after each episode of the show), but younger viewers were treated to Totally Doctor Who as well. Their very own version of the magazine show.
Broadcast alongside series two and three of Doctor Who the Cbbc show was presented by Barney Harwood and Liz Barker in the first series, and the latter was replaced by Kirsten O’Brien in the second series.
It was similar in theme and approach to Blue Peter, on which Barker was also a presenter. It featured regular segments like the Companion Academy, where children competed to win a day on the set of Doctor Who.

Happy Mondays frontman and former I'm a Celebrity star Shaun Ryder is among the stars taking part in this year's Celebrity Come Dine with Me Christmas special.
Ryder's meal apparently has a "Madchester" theme and is designed to be a "right festive rave up". Not surprisingly, the singer's menu does include melons.
Joining Ryder on the show are Coronation Street actress and glamour model Helen Flanagan, comedian Mark Dolan and TV presenter Kirsten O'Brien.
Flanagan offers her fellow celebs a "sparkly Christmas party", while O'Brien takes the stars back to her roots with a Scandinavian theme.
Dolan's party has a distinct twist as he serves up a Dickensian Christmas with "pea soup, a three-bird roast and a very plum duff".
