Dr Who is 50 this week. I will be watching the 50th celibration episode on saturday in 3D in a cinama with my daughter. A far cry from the first blcak and white TV episode.

As most of us have grown up with this icon of British TV I wonderd which Doctor where peoples favs?

I grew up with the 4th Dr Tom Backer big scarf and jelly babies and he is my bench mark for all others since.

What about you?

Yes K9 was cool and maid a come back in the Sarah jayne adventures but for me Darleks are the supreme villain

I've watched them all from William Hartnell onwards, each time the Doctor regenerates I always think the next one isn't as good but after a few episodes he always grows on me!
Overall I think David Tennant wins it with Billie Piper, I think he was the first one who had a 'conscience' about his actions in the past (or future!) which made him a little more human.
Daleks will always be the greatest (and the most pyschopathic!) but I'd love to see the Sea Devils and the Yeti back again!

(Did you know the reason the Daleks had suckers was because William Hartnell thought the claws they originally were designed with were too dangerous for the human actors who might get hurt!!!)BigGrin

You're right there Jase, especially those new style 'morphing' face grabbing varieties! Blink

Another 'forgotten fact' is that the Dr Who programs were not originally supposed to be a sci-fi children's drama at all! To get the idea past the stuffy BBC directors it was proposed as a children's educational program - each new story would have the Tardis turn up in a different time period (ancient Rome, classical Greece, Egypt etc etc) where the Doctor would interact with historical characters thus 'educating' the viewing children about that period. Of course once you know what turned up and the program became the icon it is today, all that high minded BBC stuff went right out the window! (or Tardis door)!!BigGrin BigGrin

I must say that the first Doctor Who (William Hartnell) sticks in my memory the most after being an avid fan of The Army Game where William Hartnell played CSM Percy Bullimore...Love all the newer morphing doctors but Mr Hartnell will always stick in mind..Congrats on the 50th though!!

Amazing -50 years old and went through turbulent times.

For me it has to be Tom Baker as my favourite Doctor. Grew up with John Pertwee but for my liking he was just a bit to prim and proper BigGrin .

Tom baker really brought a bit more life to the character. Think they then struggled with some of the actors when he was replaced.

I always remember getting frustrated having to wait a whole week for the next Saturday episode to continue the story.

As for aliens for me the sea devils with their "car headlight" weapons were my favourite.

Kind regards

Tony
