Why would Britbox and ITV want to throw their money down the
toilet? You'd think the BBC would want all episodes on as many
platforms as exist. Now for Disney to join them and put an end
to The Adventures of the Timeless Child Monster.

Maybe - and it is only a random maybe - Disney want all of
Doctor Who from the beginning of time on their own streaming
platform, for international distribution outside of the UK... So
the BBC (for a price) were happy to oblige and not re-licence
'classic era' Doctor Who to Britbox and ITVX?

 Basically if you live in the UK, you have to use iPlayer,

(I know I might be splitting hairs, but .....)
"... you have to use iPlayer" .... or, if you already subscribe to Disney+ (for all the other stuff they host), can you also use your Disney+ for 'Doctor Who' in the U.K.??
