Tom Baker
Jon Pertwee
Patrick Troughton
Exactly this in exactly the same order.
Who was the greatest Dr of them all? Page 3
That's it now, the rest of the thread will be sooty coming up with new Raj Persaud puns.
David Tennant
Peter Davison
Quite liked creepy old Colin Baker too.
Who the f**k is Raj Persaud?
Undoubtedly Dirk Bogarde.
He's a nice TV doctor who is always on daytime TV, and recently admitted to plagiarism.
Ah, ok. I thought you were talking about one of them token ethnics back in ye oldee TV.
Who were normally a white guy with boot polish on his face.
Ah, but the blacked-up whities were generally those born in India/Asia, playing main roles (see Michael Bates in It Ain't Half Hot Mum, Spike Milligan in Curry & Chips etc). One-off or irregular characters (the token types to which I refer) were generally played by character actors who actually were black/brown/grey/whatever. The Sikhs in the Only Fools and Horses episode Cash and Curry spring to mind, as does the tax inspector from the episode I forget of Open All Hours.

What? Zooo? Tennant?
*Literally rocks back in amazement*
My favourite fictional Doctor is Dr Spaceman from 30 Rock. Favourite Doctor Who is Tom Baker. This one's okay, but I've always thought Tennant looks a bit like a stoat, has a pipecleaner body, and his Adam's Apple is way to prominent.

I should have said Sylvester McCoy, just to f**k with you.
I liked McCoy. Don't knock the McCoy.
I stopped watching it after Adric died and only picked it up again in McCoy's last season. He was a funny, weird little man and a decent Doctor.
I watched McCoy too.
Never really liked him, but I kept watching...
The McCoy episodes are actually better than most people remember. I watched them all recently, and his 2nd and 3rd series were actually quite good. Though they would have been better than that if the scripts & directors had played to his strengths.
