The 2016 competition attracted around 20 voters with around 60 channels being nominated, the winner was Crispy Pro followed by Tardis Archives, The Who Addicts (then Who Addict Reviews), Batmanmarch and Doctor Forever respectively.

2018 Awards
The latest series in 2018 was spilt into 6 parts (unlike 5 parts in 2017 and just 1 in 2016) so each who-tuber who made the list had time to speak and thank the voters for their place, unlike the 2017 version when only the top 2 thanked the voters. This series achieved a lot more recognition than the first two competitions and intern achieved a lot more votes with over 250 people voting and over 100 channels being nominated. The winner, Alex Patterson (The Doctor Who Guide) was announced in early December 2018 by former Doctor Who and Little Britain star Matt Lucas, runners up included Wingy Media, Council of Geeks, DoctorBlue and The Who Addicts, respectively.

At the end of the 2018 competition SL Productions announced it would return in 2019, however with an increase of WhoTubers quitting the platform, will the list continue into 2020 and beyond or will it end?
