Hi there! It's ten years ago to the month that I first discovered Doctor Who, and I've never looked back... it's ever such a wonderful bit of silliness!
My favourite story is The Space Pirates, for no particular reason I can pin down... I've just loved it to bets ever since I discovered it on my 17th birthday.
My favourite baddies are the Ice Warriors; I've got a collection of them with about twenty different figures sitting on my TV. Everything about them is just sheer coolness, their voice, their walk, their armour... hooray for Martians!
I'm also a great fan of Ace, good to see I'm not alone here! As a rebellious and headstrong teenagner myself (though a bit less of a pyrotechnically minded one) I find her very entertaining. UP THE KILLJOYS!
I find it very hard to pin down a favourite Doctor though; I enjoy them all in their own way. I must be contreversial though and say that I find Jon Pertwee and Tom Baker the least enjoyable of the lot! They're still *good*, mind, but I get much more of a thrill from watching something from the sixties or the eighties than a Hinchcliffe thiller or a UNIT romp. I reckon both ends of the series were fabulous - I really enjoy the much-loathed final half-a-decade!
Here in Aussieland the ABC is repeating pretty much the entire series on free-to-air... what a fabulous idea! Right now they're transmitting The Seeds Of Doom, my first Tom Baker which I first got on video exactly 10 years ago now... not a bad Christmas present! And this time last year it was The Chase, my first black and white story and an all-time favourite... she serves me well, does Aunty!
