The 2016 U.S. presidential election had the same results in the \"Doctor Who\" universe, apparently, with Donald Trump sitting in the oval office both on TV and in reality. <\/p>\n
During the most recent episode of the hit BBC sci-fi adventure, the Doctor's current companion, Bill (played by Pearl Mackie) is tracked down by the U.N. and asked to help find \"the president.\" <\/p>\n
\"How would I know the president? I mean I wouldn't have even voted for him,\" Bill responded. \"He's ... orange.\" <\/p>\n
Mr. Trump -- or an actor portraying him -- doesn't appear in the episode, but the writers have made it clear he exists in their world. <\/p>\n
It turned out the U.N. was looking for another president: the Doctor himself, played by Peter Capaldi. Several seasons back, the character was given the title President of Earth. <\/p>\n
