Sex & Nudity
-
- Some kissing between adults, but physical contact stops there.
- Girls can tend to wear reveling outfits.
- Occasional flashes of knickers or plunging necklines.
- Infrequent mild sexual references or innuendo.
Violence & Gore
-
- Not much gore, nor violence, but there are scenes of war and fighting between aliens and some with the Doctor and their foes.
- Many people get murdered by alien species thoughout the show. Although blood is never shown, some scenes can be pretty intense. Episodes that feature The Daleks normally have much bigger body counts, since this fictional species are presented as biologically genocidal.
- Although portrayed as the protagonist, The Doctor has the highest kill count of any being in the franchise. Majority of his kills are off screen.
- In most episodes there is at least a few deaths. However, for the most part, there is little to no blood or gore and the deaths are usually done in a sci-fi fantasy context with not that much realism.
Profanity
-
- Words like "Damn" "Hell" 'God' and "Bloody" are used rarely. "Crap" and "Ass" are hardly ever used.
- There is one single use of "bastard" used by River Song, but her voice gets cut off and we're only able to lip read what she says. In another episode, Bill Potts says, "No shit," but the latter half of the word is cut off.
- Missy says the phrase, "The bitch is back," in the episode 'The Witch's Familiar'. "Goddamn" is said one time in the episode 'Dalek' by a villainous character.
Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking
-
- Alcohol and tobacco in historical settings. Not graphic.
- When the Doctor visits the the city "New New York" on planet "New Earth", the poorer population normally take a drug called "moods" which alters how the user thinks or behaves. Additionally, in the hospital in the same city, the nurses all are illegally drugging the patients.
- Alcohol consumption and smoking due to some historic set stories. Science fiction drugs are featured.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
-
- It can deal with themes like war, genocide, and death.
- Some episodes do contain moderately intense themes, scary elements, or frightening images. While these moments occur within various adventures, nothing in the series ever becomes outright horrific.
- The weeping angels have some mildly scary episodes, as they can only move when no one is looking at them... so if a person blinks... they have quite a few jumpscares.
- Some episodes have jump scares and generally intense moments.
- Series finales usually have very frightening scenes, (especially series 10's)
- The show has a history of giving its younger audience members a bit of a scare so each season usually has one or two horror episodes. These episodes engage in effective scares and tension, but the horror never leans into anything explicit or graphic.
Spoilers
Violence & Gore
- A character drinks blood from a man from a straw.
