Dr Who always has been 'woke'.

Tenth Planet was aired in 1966. At this time it was still legal to advertise houses as "No blacks", or refuse service in shops. The episode featured a black astronaut, plated by Earl Cameron. This was the first ever TV casting of a non-white actor as an astronaut.

A lot of people complain that Dr Who has become 'too woke', but it appears to have been pushing boundaries almost since the very beginning.
