'sonic screw sword' or the soundtrack, also the declaration of 'bar.stud' glorious stuff.

….never really got it, probably watched the daleks back in the day but can’t understand the appeal, it’s certainly not my cup of tea.

The biggest issue we've found from watching the old ones - they're too long. I know I'm looking at it as a 21st century viewer, but each story is 3+ hours of episodes and the stories just don't warrant it.

For comparison, we're also watching The Outer Limits from the 60's, and they're crafting really nifty self contained yarns in 50 minutes.

I watched Blink recently as saw a clip and remembered the episode, theres a few random ones i quite enjoy but have never been a huge fan.

I think this is a fair point.

Some prudent editing would have made the early tales far more punchier.

Still the early Doctors, from William Hartnell to Sylvester McCoy, were my personal favorites.

Peter Davison was my Doctor.

I enjoyed the Tennant and Smith eras. Capaldi was good but the stories had already started to get worse and the whole timeless child thing has kind of ruined it.

Had hoped the return of Russel T Davies would have improved things, but the stories are still terrible

All the existing episodes are available on the iPlayer. Go and watch all the Patrick Troughton ones, he was superb

You wouldn't believe, looking at her, that at 16 she was seriously injured in a car crash, both legs and her back broken, but also with terrible facial injuries. She underwent a couple of years of skin grafts to repair the damage. The doctors must have been fabulous.
