List of Doctor Who universe creatures and aliens

}}

The long-running BBC science fiction television series ''Doctor Who'' has an extensive universe inhabited by a continuously expanding gallery of creatures and aliens.

The series first aired on BBC in 1963 until its cancellation in 1989, with a television movie aired in 1996 in an unsuccessful attempt to revive the show . The show was successfully revived in 2005, and continues to air episodes.

The series stars an extraterrestrial known as the Doctor, who is capable of changing their appearance when they die in a process known as regeneration. They travel through time and space in a machine known as the TARDIS. In the process, the Doctor often comes into contact with various alien species. This list only covers alien races and other fictional creatures and not specific characters. Several of these alien races re-appear in one or more of the spin-off series ''The Sarah Jane Adventures'', ''Torchwood'', and ''Class'', but antagonists original to those series do not appear on this list.
