The Doctor's time-traveling ship in which he/she (The Doctor usually takes the regeneration of males) travels with a usually female companion in the show Doctor Who on BBC.
It seems to have infinite rooms with the constant ability to change capacity with a simple switch of a lever or push of a button, as seen in the episode where the Eleventh Doctor makes Amy and Rory's bunk beds one bed and another where he deletes the swimming pool and the library in order to complete a vigorous task.
As Clara Oswald stated in 'The Snowmen,' it is 'smaller on the outside.'
It takes shape as a 1960's police call box, since the chameleon circuit is broken. It has a familiar whirring noise celebrated across the fandom.
The Doctor refers to the TARDIS as 'sexy' when he's alone, since it technically has no name. In 'The Doctor's Wife,' the TARDIS takes the form of a human girl, sacrificed by her 2 other peers to lure in The Doctor.
1) Acronym for Time And Relative Dimension In Space. Spaceship owned by the Doctor from Dr.Who, with the ability to travel through space and time. Takes the form of a 1950's British police box, although this is merely because the camouflage unit is malfunctioning. The TARDIS is also a lot bigger on the inside than on the outside, theoretically, it can be infinite in size.
2) A woman who sleeps around; who is "Bigger on the inside than on the outside"
"It's called the Tardis . . . . it can travel anywhere in time and space . . . . and it's mine!"
"Awh man! I regret sleeping with Jenny, last night! She's such a Tardis!"
The TARDIS apart from having the luxury of time travel has an added feature of having an interior of infinate size contained inside a very limited physical space, this is due to the dimentional rift on the boundarys of the TARDIS front doors.
When you enter a TARDIS you are steping out of your reality and into another through the dimentional tear in space.
One disadvanage is, although it has so much space inside theres not much you can fit throughtthe doors... unless everything is flat-packed (see IKEA)
A TARDIS is a product of the advanced technology of the Time Lords, an extraterrestrial civilisation to which the programme's central character, the Doctor, belongs. A properly maintained and piloted TARDIS can transport its occupants to any point in time and any place in the universe. The interior of a TARDIS is much larger than its exterior ("It's bigger on the inside"), which can blend in with its surroundings using the ship's "chameleon circuit". TARDISes also possess a degree of sentience (which has been expressed in a variety of ways ranging from implied machine personality and free will through to the use of a conversant avatar) and provide their users with additional tools and abilities including a telepathically based universal translation system.
Doctor Who travels in a time machine called the TARDIS--- Time And Relative Dimension (Dimensions) In Space.
With the TARDIS The Doctor can travel to any point in time and space.
The inside of the TARDIS is larger then the outside.
The TARDIS used to have the ability to disguise itself according to its environment around it, but in 1963 when it landed in London it became “stuck” in the form of a police box. The Doctor has given up trying to fix it, because he has grown fond of the police box shape.
Also the vessel’s navigation system is old and unreliable, which is why The Doctor explores the universe at random.
The TARDIS(/ˈtɑrdɪs/; Time And Relative Dimension In Space) is a time machine and spacecraft in the British science fiction television programme Doctor Who and its associated spin-offs The Sarah Jane Adventures, Torchwood and more.

In the series, the Doctor pilots an apparently unreliable, obsolete Type 40, Mark 1 TARDIS. Its chameleon circuit is broken, leaving it stuck in the shape of a 1960s-style London police box after a visit to London in 1963. The Doctor's TARDIS was for most of the series' history said to have been stolen from the Time Lords' home planet, Gallifrey, where it was old, decommissioned and derelict.
River Song: Okay, I've mapped the probability vectors, done a foldback on the temporal isometry, charted the ship to its destination and... presses a button, the cloister bell clangs parked us right alongside.
The Doctor: Parked us? But we haven't landed!
River Song: Of course we've landed; I just landed her.
The Doctor: But it didn't make the noise.
River Song: What noise?
The Doctor: You know, the... does an impression of the TARDIS materialisation sound
River Song: It's not supposed to make that noise. You leave the brakes on.
The Doctor: Yes, well, it's a brilliant noise. I love that noise.
“He thought for a second, then spun to Clara. 'Did you say something cruel to the TARDIS while I was getting changed?'
'No! Of course not!'
'Did you call her fat?'
'What?'
'Because she's not fat. She's just bigger on the inside.
