Re:Who is your favourite doctor?
Well, I was a John Pertwee baby and spent many a happy Saturday night behind the sofa (Tell me, I was literally behind the sofa. No other programme ever did that to me, has any it ever happened to anybody else to something different?)
I took some time to take to Tom Baker as he was so different, but later grew to love him.
However, I have cast my vote for Christopher Ecclestone because I took to him immediately and because he is a great actor. Helped along most definitely by superb stories and wonderful, though often understated special effects.
He was the best Doctor because the series he was in was so very good. It took Dr Who out of kids’ TV and into seriously good drama.
And yes, it was after Basil Brush. The Generation game was in there somewhere too. Oh boy, I loved Saturday nights!
