The title says it all: Who do you think is the best Doctor so far?

(p.s Matt Smith isn't included in this topic as we havn't seen enough of him to know how good he is)

Nooooo! Don't make me decide. Troughton, Tennant, Eccleston and Davison were all good. Tom Baker had good qualities but stayed too long.

Jon Pertwee! All the others since played it too tongue-in-cheek. Jon Pertwee was the ideal Doctor, just as Christopher Lee was the perfect Dracula, Basil Rathbone was the perfect Sherlock Holmes, and no-one but Ronnie Barker could have been Norman Stanley Fletcher.

My parent's did not have a TV when I was young and the only time I watched TV was on saturday afternoons when we visited our grandmother. Hence Dr Who was the only progamme I watched - along with all-in wresting.
I saw one of the early Dr Who's with William Hartnell which was shown on BBC 4 some years ago. The plots owed something to H.G. Wells and also to 'The Brave New World ' and were rather wordy by todays standards. But the crotchety and elderly William Hartnell had been the most original Dr Who. It is interesting that James Bond underwent a similar metamorphosis over the years and the recent version 'almost' reverted to the original. I cannot remember the William Hartnell's relationship to his first assistant. Perhaps he had been a grandfather? The BBC should have reverted to more of a William Hartnell character but it is too late now. Perhaps next time!

I might be the only one that really like Eccleston as the Doctor (at least, from what I have read around the web). Not saying that he is better than Tennant, but I still liked him very much.
I don't really remember much of the "old" Dotors, so my comparison is limited to the new ones - hope the long time fans will forgive me. :)
