Re: dr who returns THIS SATURDAY (19th) - be afraid ..... VERY AFRAID!
did anybody else see last night's documentary on Dr Who?
TONS of clips from all the old Dr Who's - was really good, the mastermind thing was a real disappointment - what a bore
I thought that would be a real crack but turned it off after 10 minutes, really really bad, they asked the contenders for titles of programmes and who wrote this and what was the name of this character ???
Colin Baker and Sylvester McCoy were on there way too much for my liking but there was one funny bit with McCoy
He said that once a fan came up to him after his dr who career had taken off saying, "Wow - Dr Who - this has made my day BTW you are my fifth favourite Dr!! 
" McCoy replied "Thank goodness I'm not your seventh favourite dr that's all I can say"
Each of the Doctors was wonderful in his own unique way. Let me put in a special word for Colin Baker though, who, thrillingly, took more risks with his characterization and pushed the envelope further than anyone else. His great love for the series and the character shone through then and shines through still.
J Vail, Brookline, Massachusetts, USAPatrick Troughton and then John Pertwee were the Doctors I "grew up with", though quite frankly I couldn't care less about who the best one was as I always watched "Garrison's Guerillas" on the other side instead.
Martin Lewis, Auckland, NZThe best TV Doctor for me was Patrick Troughton although I have to say that all the others have really good qualities. And for those people who think that Colin Bakers Doctor was poor, I suggest that they take a listen to the Big Finish Doctor Audio range where his Doctor (along with Paul McGanns 8th Doctor) have really been given a chance to shine and show people exactly how they could have been given the time and the right scripts.
Colin Lambert, BirminghamTom Baker IS at timelord - if there is such a thing. Reverse the polarity of the neutron flow!
