WHO was your first Doctor...

Post Reply New Topic

My first Doctor on "Doctor Who" was Sylvester McCoy. Who was yours?

Patrick Troughton, in black and white on an old 405 line TV set. I still hid behind the sofa during the scary bits though!

^ Ditto.

Christopher Eccleston.

i'm a relative newcomer to the series, my first was eccleston (who i think was underrated). my favourite will always be david tennant though.

it's the hair. *sigh*

Baker on rerun. My overwhelming memories of Baker who was people getting their brains melted. I was very young when I watched them. There was a danger to Baker's portrayal that was unique. You get the impression that his doctor was insane, and not just quirky like the others. My favourites are Baker, Tenant, Mccoy.

Christopher Eccleston. Netflix in 2012 was my first experience seeing the show.

I saw Christopher Eccleston and David Tennant in a few episodes, but I didn't get into it until Matt Smith.

Tom Baker, the fourth doctor.

I didn't watch the old ones when I was younger, but my favourite is David Tenant.

My daughter has all the really old black and white ones on VHS, her favourite was Tom Baker.

I was a little too young to catch Doctor Who's early days, so Eccleston was my first. I wasn't really sold on him until several episodes in (I thought he was kind of freaky), but I'm glad I had nothing else to do and kept watching.
