At last, a proper Doctor Who thread! Splendid!!
I am a huge Russell T Davies fan and have had a crush on David Tennant for years, and have loved the work they did together before Doctor Who, so I was in heaven during that collaboration. I was all geared up for the Stephen Moffatt take over but lost interest after a bit. Have liked Matt Smith in other roles though. Again, am a Peter Capaldi fan and have really enjoyed his take on the Doctor, he's such a powerhouse character actor.
As for recent companions Donna was fabulous, and thought Clara was great too. And agree that as near companions Captain Jack (Torchwood could have gone on forever as I was concerned) and also Alfred (Donna's granddad played by the inimitable Bernard Cribbins) were standouts.
mmm Doctor Who is the only show I regularly watch. It's an addiction really.
Old school alert ! I grew up watching Doctor Who in the Pertwee Era 1970 -1974 - Jon Pertwee, Katy Manning, Roger Delgado and UNIT. That remains my favourite of the shows many eras. Of course I think it's wonderful that the show is still going and I'm still a fan.
