Loads of old panelled Victorian doors in our house. OF course, these

If I had some thin material which wouldn't crack and looked like wood or
maybe was wood, I could cover the panels with this. The slight loss of
depth probably wouldn't show.
What might work?

There are plenty of companies that will strip down old doors using a dipping
process. Might be worthwhile doing and you might discover the door is in
better condition than you imagine.

Yes, I did that. Some of them are a bit ropey but I've got used to it, and
overall much prefer the look of a stripped door to painted.
