The 14 sneakiest Doctor Who video game Easter Eggs
There’s no way you spotted all these secret Whoniverse callbacks
7. The Rock n’ Roll Doctor
Even before Peter Capaldi picked up an axe for the latest series of Doctor Who, the Time Lord clearly had a rock pedigree – just look at this “Doctor What” outfit available to buy in interactive music game Rock Band, throwing together the classic Time Lord attire of scarf and long jacket befitting a guitarist (or singer or drummer) of intergalactic talent.
8. Bow ties are cruel
The Doctor What outfit isn’t the only Whoniverse flair out there for the style-conscious gamer, though – players of offbeat and gory squad shooter Team Fortress 2 can kit out certain classes of character with Matt Smith-alike bow ties, appropriately named “Doctor Woah”.
9. Destroy all Who-mans
In alien invasion first-person shooter Destroy All Humans! 2, main character Crypto heads to a version of London called Albion, where his appearance causes quite a Who-themed stir.
When seeing the extra-terrestrial in their midst, citizens scream “Someone call the Doctor!” or “Where the hell’s the bleedin’ Tardis?,” and though sadly neither turn up it’s a great little nod to the quintessentially British series.
