What's Dr Who called in Chinese?

I’m not even sure whether the show was ever broadcast to Chinese audiences, as no one I’ve spoken to seems to ahve a clue what I’m talking about…but…
Does anyone have any idea what the Dr Who TV show would translate as? Either the “official” name or a good guess-timation…
Thanks!

神秘博士 shen2mi4 bo2shi4 is the official name (Taiwan and Mainland).

Couldn’t they have just called him Doctor Wu? Would that be too similar or something?

Or Dr. Hu?

Thanks guys…
I knew there must be some Chinese-speaking Dr. Who fans out there

Dr Whu? (only joking) :wink:

“What’s on TV tonight?”

“Hu’s on first.”

(And what if “A Bell for Adano” were playing afterwards?)
