Happy Birthday Doctor

Post by Charlos777 »

46 years ago today Doctor Who was introduced to the world. I discovered this while surfing the interwebs and proceeded to laugh out loud cause I realized I'm dressed just like the 9th doctor and I have a sonic screw driver in my jacket!
I hope your not expecting me to make a joke not related to ninjas, pirates, Jesus, cyborgs, or a combination of all of those.

If you don't have the 20th anniversary hardcover or a videotape of the never released episode, then you aren't a Dr. Who fan; you're just a wannabe who likes the later doctors.

Wuss.

I don't...but I'm a poor Doctor Who fan. I do have Curse of the Fatal Death, though!

Unreleased episode? That limits it down. which one are you referring to, Kolter? The infamous Colin Baker ones that were never aired? Or something else?

Of course the infamous Baker ones. The other ones aren't infamous.

And at least a little bit of The Black Lotus was aired - you can find it in The Five Doctors. :P

I used to watch the Tom Baker episodes in the early 80's, but so did the rest of the english speaking world over 30, of course there wasn't much else to choose from back then. there were only 8 or so channels and no remote. Pbs never showed any of the episodes after baker and then stopped showing it all together.
After Baker I'm gonna say Jon Pertwee was my favorite Dr. They would show a few of his episodes and he was in the five dr. He was such a glorious dandy fop.

*sniffle*
B-b-but I can't help that I haven't got those. Like MixedMyth, I'm poor.
Plus I'm watching in order from 3 different places in the Continuity now (Discounting Sarah Jane and Torchwood, 5 if you count the Big Finish audio plays)
I'm in the middle of The Daleks, Terror of the Zygons, The David Tennant Specials, The 8th Doctor Adventures, And Neverland.
Someday, someday I'll finish Confabulation. That day is not today, however.

Lessee...William Hartnell, Peter Cushing, Patrick Troughton, Jon Pertwee, Tom Baker, Peter Davidson, Colin Baker, Sylvester McCoy, Paul McGann...Chris Eccleston, David Tennant...no, no, I'm pretty sure Hugh Grant's never been The Doctor. :P

Wait. Checks Wikipedia...

At least, at least not seriously. *Goes to youtube The Curse of the Fatal Death*

Yey! Apparently I'm a greater fan of Dr.Who than someone else!

That was terrible.

Hugh was the Doctor for like, um, 20 seconds? A minute?

Jonathan Pryce as the Master is brilliant, though!

And hey, I've been watching Doctor Who since I was a wee Gallifreyan!
