Britbox had the exclusive rights to the classic era of
Doctor Who in the USA, until 2025. Whilst HBO Max have
the rights to Doctor Who 2005-2023, and Disney+
[currently] have the rights to the post 2023 episodes of
the show. So if you lived in the USA that's three
different streaming platforms you'd have to subscribe to
to watch the various eras of Doctor Who. I think the BBC
would like to consolidate those licences as the various
agreements expire.

You sure will... but the inhabitants of the Yadallee Republic
will still stream BBC1 from their local IPTV service,
supplied by Ahmed from the back of the Aladdin Kebab shop
down the road, anyway... so it won't matter who the BBC sell
the international streaming rights for "Doctor Who" to!

And I as a license fee payer am still waiting for my share of

episodes?

 Your share is paid back to you in enjoyment! As you get to watch

What is there to enjoy about degenerate woke garbage?

Doctor Who, Match of the Day, Silent Witness, Gavin & Stacey,
Songs of Praise...plus innumerable top quality drama programmes

All crap. The Timeless Child is a monstrosity. They've never even shown the match of the day on Match of the Day ever. They never play the songs I like on Songs of Praise, and Silent Witness and Gavin & Stacy are for the brain dead.

on the national television service of the United Kingdom. You
are blessed!

Innumerable as in exactly zero, so they can't actually be enumerated.

 So be grateful... and don't forget to keep paying your TV
licence fee or they'll send the bailiffs round!

The will do worse than that. They will send me to prison. At least I won't have to pay for the free central heating.
