Just wondering who is everybody's favorite Doctors. I've allowed multiple voting, so vote for like your favorite two or three. My favorites are Tom Baker (of course), Paul McGann (not so much for the TV movie, but for the 5 seasons they have done so far for the eighth doctor in the Big Finish audio series, and David Tennant (the current Doctor).

The understated Peter Davison.
Also..both Bakers, Eccleston, Tennent, Mcgann.
Pertwee was pretty good too...and Troughton.
Wasn't keen on McCoy, but he had improved by the end of his tenure.
Worst assistant?
Bonnie Langford!!!

Is Sylvester McCoy THE Doctor McCoy ? Bones himself ?
If so he gets my vote, on of my favorite Original Star Trek characters.

I of course like all of them. Colin Baker would be next on my list after the three I mentioned above. I agree with your assessment of the worst companion. God she was annoying. I also didn't care much for Tegan, which may somewhat put Davison further down on my list than he would otherwise be, since she was there for almost the entire Davison run.
Maybe I'll do a companion poll at some point.

Tegan was certainly a whiner. She said herself "I'm just a mouth on legs". But wasn't Peri a bit of a whiner too, although she had some great assets.

True, Peri was a bit of a whiner, but I didn't find her whining as annoying. I was probably too busy paying attention to her great assets.
Yes I'm watching the current series. I get them on DVD from the UK, since they are behind in the US on the series. I think they are showing Season 2 now here. I was actually sad to see Billie leave the show last year. The new companion seems pretty cool though too.

I actually think this is the best series so far. I think we'll be getting the return of an old enemy. Don't want to spoil it for you, unless you want to know more......

I think it is the character called Mr Saxon who was in the episode where Mark Gattis found the cure for eternal life.I have a sneaky suspision theat Mr Saxon is in fact a re-generation of The Master.

Oh! definately. I think that Uncle Monty (Richard Griffiths) from Withnail and I would have made a great Doctor.

I only listed official Doctors. I also left out Rowan Atkinson, Richard Grant, etc. from the Curse of Fatal Death. Actually, Paul McGann was in more than just the TV movie, which I agree wasn't that great. There are several series of audio plays with him as the Doctor, produced by Big Finish, which are excellent.

Maybe it's the Valeyard. Actually, now that we're up to Doc number 10, at some point they may have to deal with this continuity nightmare. Although that made for a hell of a climax to Trial of a Time Lord.

Ah excellent, a Doctor Who thread! Been a fan for around a year now and I do love the series, especially the 1970-81 era.
I may as well have my top 10 in order, actually;
Tom Baker (I love his full bore performances, ranging from real gravitas to out and out ham- THE Doctor, imho)
Jon Pertwee (love the Venusian Karate and his often insufferable pomposity- 'Inferno' is my fave story thus far)
Patrick Troughton (shame more of his don't survive- they are a joy to watch)
Sylvester McCoy (imho, McCoy is excellent- I love the 4 DVDs I have, haven't seen any more though)
David Tennant (wasn't keen on last year's series, but imho this year's series and Tennant himself is excellent and the two part 'Human Nature/The Family Of Blood' was a stunner)
William Hartnell (well I don't watch these ones as much, to be honest)
Christopher Eccleston (had they concentrated even more on the darker side of his character, he would have been higher)
Peter Davison (found the companions almost all unanimously irritating in his era)
Colin Baker (haven't seen that many of this era but I find his performances to be a bit OTT sometimes)
Paul McGann (didn't like that TV movie at all...and that's all I have to judge him on)
As for favourite companion?? Lalla Ward aka Romana II, no question...Tom Baker certainly agreed, he married her (albeit briefly...)!

Out of all the Doctor Who series past and present my absolute favourite has to be Tomb of the Cybermen. Absolutely fantastic.
A mention has to be made to the BBC Radiophonic Workshop,Delia Darbyshire,Dudley Simpson et al.
Without their input the the whole thing wouldn't be...well...Dr.Who.
R.I.P. Delia Darbyshire.
White Noise! Now there was a band.

^Yes I was going to point out that infamous scene in The Mind Robber. That whole story is so wonderfully, knowingly daft you simply can't help but love it.
McCoy and Sophie Aldred are a good team, imho- 'Ghost Light', 'The Curse Of Fenric' and 'Survival' are all first class, imho. I know a lot of fans tend to really criticise McCoy but on the evidence of those (and 'Rememberance Of The Daleks'- though my fave Dalek episode of the 80s is 'Revelation Of The Daleks'; a macabre masterpiece), he's one of my faves.

It seems that th1e stranger is The Master (after a converstaion with soneone in the know) But ultimately, time will tell as to who is correct.

That was my theory too, until they showed a trailer/clip thing with John Simms as a politician grinning at the camera, aka Mr Saxon. |
That doesn't stop the stranger being The Master though. |
Maybe it's the Valeyard. Actually, now that we're up to Doc number 10, at some point they may have to deal with this continuity nightmare. Although that made for a hell of a climax to Trial of a Time Lord. |
It seems that th1e stranger is The Master (after a converstaion with soneone in the know) But ultimately, time will tell as to who is correct. |
I'm sure the stranger is The Master. Speaking of the stranger, did anyone ever see the series The Stranger with Colin Baker?

Who are all these doctors? Doctor Who is the only one I've ever heard of.

I got hooked on Doctor Who about a year ago, when there was a marathon of the then new series (in the US) on Sci-Fi. I can't wait for the new series to premiere here, although I've already seen a few of the early episodes, the new companion is great IMO.
I'm not usually into scifi kinda stuff, but for some reason I love Doctor Who, and I just wish they would show it more on standard Cable. Favorite Doctor? I'm not sure, but I think I like Eccleston least. Baker is probably my favorite, like many others, but I also like the underrated Davison and Baker, although Peri is quite annoying. (an American using British lingo, she's a bit whiny too, but the last episode with her and Davison was wonderful!, probably the best one she appeared in that I've seen so far). David Tennant is also up there as well.

These are the 10 people who have played the Doctor in Doctor Who since 1963. A few of the people who have played the Doctor are unofficial Doctors and so have been left off the list (e.g. Peter Cushing, Rowan Atkinson, Richard Grant). The ten people listed are the official Doctors from the show.

David Tennant for his witty performance, while still having that dark edge.. and Eccleston wasn't bad either.. but I can't get into old Who somehow

I always liked Patrick Troughton, but David Tennant is doing a great job. This Saturday's episode was one of the best ever, especially the "timey-wimey" bit.

C'mon folks, Pertwee and Baker are the definitive doctors...those were the golden years for the show, with Troughton and Hartnell a close second. Anything after that...ugh.

Wow.
Tonights episode. Brilliant. So now we know who is The Master.
I feel excited like a child!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Edit. So the mysterious stranger must be one of The Masters men. Maybe a civil servant or maybe MI5 or something?

Just wondering who is everybody's favorite Doctors. I've allowed multiple voting, so vote for like your favorite two or three. My favorites are Tom Baker (of course), Paul McGann (not so much for the TV movie, but for the 5 seasons they have done so far for the eighth doctor in the Big Finish audio series, and David Tennant (the current Doctor). |
I don't have time to check all pages of this thread so far, but why isn't Dr. Gregory House (Hugh Laurie is the best!) in this list?

Right....... Guess I missed the point of this whole thing. Dr. Who has never been big over here, for whatever that is worth as an excuse.

I intentionally left the voting open to multiple votes so that people could pick their favorite two or three. Oh, and I always thought the same thing about Patrick Troughton's Doctor. I was always waiting for him to poke Jamie in the eyes and go nyuck nyuck.

I'm going to keep quiet. I don't want to spoil it for you...but this is so great. I'm amazed its not on on the States sooner.
I could send you a copy of what I've recorded I suppose?
Edit.....I'm a darn fool...etiquette....I should have warned with a SPOILER ALERT on my post...sorry Doc.
Edit 2...I may make a Dr Who series 3 thread tomorrow, which you can then avoid!

What episode are they up to in this season now? Yeah it sucks that the U.S. is a season behind. But it gives me something to look forward to in the next week or so. The next DVD should be here by the end of June.
That's ok Ian. You haven't given away too much information. And thanks for offering to send me copies, but I'll have all of the episodes by the end of August. I can wait, but sadly I won't be able to take part in your Doctor Who thread.

Saturday was episode 11....the first of a three parter!
I just burned a DVD of episodes 7-10, and before that 3-6.
I can easily send my homeade copy if you wish. But I understand that the real thing is better.

Patricks son himself became a well known Tv actor here and has had a long and varied career. Now Patricks grandson is quite famous, appearing in the new BBC Robin Hood.

Postage can't be that much can it? And a blank DVD is peanuts.
Only problem is compatibilty of course. We have PAL TV system and region 2 DVD. But as its homeade does that even figure?
As it happens, I have a spare copy of episodes 7-10, because I waqsn't happy with the font size on the menu I created.. It works fine though.
