The Doctor is the last of the Timelords, from the long running BBC si-fi series "Doctor Who".

The Timelords were a race from the planet Gallifrey. During the Last Great Time War, between the Daleks and the Timelords, The Daleks, Gallifrey and the rest of the Timelords were Destroyed. The Doctor was instrumental in the destruction thereby bringing the end of the War.

The Doctor doesn't hate his planet, but has instead, been involved in a long debate with his people about the nature of the Timelord's place in the universe. This disagreement was the genesis for The Doctors travelling lifestyle.

In 'The End of Time', we see scenes from the Time War, as the Time Lord president Rassilon prepares to shift Gallifrey itself out of the Time War, to modern day Earth. Here we learn that Time Lord society had become brutal and bloodthirsty over the course of the ceaseless war against the Daleks. Their own plan was 'the end of time itself', to destroy all of creation and for the Time Lords to ascend. This, the Doctor explained, is why he had to destroy his own people too, and never let them return.
