I beg to differ. Jon Pertwee was the doctor. Full stop. End of discussion. Everyone else who has followed has been a mere imposter.

I think you'll find Tom Baker was the doctor  ;D

+1  :applaud:

RTSDaddy2:
I believe I said that earlier, but let me try and clarify this so there's no confusion:

Tom Baker= Doctor of the 80s

David Tennant = Doctor (so far) of the 2000s

patrickl:
Tom Baker did Dr Who till 1981. So he'd be more the Doctor of the 70s.

From the eighties I remember Peter Davison (wearing the cricket shirt). I don't remember the other two actors of that decade.

Bobulus:
Probably the odd man out here, but I like Matt Smith's Doctor a lot more than David Tennant's.

I'm not sure if it was the writing or the actor, but the character of Ten got kind of old for me after a while. For one thing, he really only had two moods: Manic and Shouty. And the Shouty bits always annoyed me, because he'd chew people out for stuff he'd done himself, and it never had the gravitas of Nine. It seemed like maybe they were writing the character to be a bit of a hypocritical 'the rules don't apply to me' type, but other than the ending of The Waters of Mars, there's really no consequences for that.

And don't get me started on the weird Rose/Ten romance stuff or that hand-clone.

Anyway, I feel like both the actor and the writing are a lot sharper this season, and I'm enjoying the hell out of it! :D

(For the record, didn't see much of the old show, other than Tom Baker reruns on PBS)
