    In order to break tradition with the standard display in here, let's have a little poll. I'd put it in the lounge, but then answers have to be KSS. So which do you prefer: Blonde, Brunette, or Redhead? And why? For the purpose of this poll I will group women with Jet Black hair as Brunettes.

    If I have accidentally said something witty, smart, or correct, it is purely by mistake and I apologize for it.

      Oh dear god. Like, the first Dr.? I'm not sure you can even find a full season of his time. The new series is designed to be viewable without prior knowledge. Pick up on the 9th Dr. and go. For longest run and some of the most established villains, find the 3rd and 4th Drs. Also helps you understand some of the 10th Dr. stuff.

      Well considering he referenced the First Doctor in Vampires of Venice and all of them in Eleventh Hour, it'll help if Ian watches them all. I do have as many of them as I could get. All 200GB worth. Really wanting a NAS.

        There's no way to decide. You've got Angelina Jolie and Monica Bellucci representing brunettes, Angie Everhart and Karen Gillan (Amy Pond) representing the redheads, Scarlett Johannson(sp?) and Naomi Watts representing the blondes. You can't ask anyone to choose. That'd be inhuman. :)

                Referencing the first Dr. is a lot different than NEEDING to see him. A lot of the first series was very dry, it established the Dr. well, but the pacing was still finding its feet. Second Dr. started the whole "I have a quirky signature thing" with the recorder. Third Dr. had that car. Forth had the scarf, that fabulous, amazing, incredible scarf. Oh and an ego the size of the inside of the Tardis.

                      True plus he was already quite an old man when he took that role. It'd be worth getting alot of Tom Baker, some Davison, various Dalek sagas and regeneration episodes. Fifth Doctor series was noted for destroying the sonic screwdriver because the producer considered it too deus ex machina for writers. Six was...well...a git. I liked Seven. He started off fairly quirky but evolved into a far more machiavellian character who still wouldn't resort to violence. Best quote from him when fighting The Master on a planet where things would be overcome with violent tendencies was "If we fight like animals then we die like animals!". Also he managed to get a couple of foes to suicide themselves through logic. I left sorry for Eight. He would've been good in an expanded series I suspect but the original pilot let him down trying to pander to everyone. Nine seemed to be suffering from a bipolar disorder brought about by post traumatic stress disorder maybe.

                        5th Dr. had the unfortunate distinction of being after Baker and losing the screwdriver. They also had him destroy the scarf in the first episode. I know I screamed when I saw that happening. First time I ever got up and walked out on a TV show from anger. (I was like 7) Six, was Tom Baker's son.... Ego twice the size of his father and it showed. 7 and 8...I just never got to see much of them. Nine should have been 2 seasons. He was a nice presence. And the PTSD was major. I think he was the one that ended the war, completely and utterly ruining his ability to feel true joy. He had fun, but until Rose helped him he was just doing what he thought was needed, and not doing it for fun. Agree on the Davidson/Baker stuff. There is a mini-arc with Baker where he is bouncing around trying to find parts to some device. Some of the best stories ever. I think Romana is introduced in this arc.

                            Oh and Ten should not be watched if you have a significant other. It's fine when your partner says she likes him. It's fine when she says he's sexy. It's a bit creepy but still ok when she asks you to dress like him. It's crossed the line when she suggests stalking him.

                                  most likely. Saw it when it first aired on Public TV in America, sometime in the 80s. I remember him being teleported around during this without his Tardis.

                                    Fortunately mine's Scottish so she's pretty immune to Bathgate accents. It also means I have to put up with her putting on various accents from around the Highlands X|

                                      Fortunately mine's Scottish so she's pretty immune to Bathgate accents. It also means I have to put up with her putting on various accents from around the Highlands X|

                                      This is a negative? I suppose that an American accent sounds exotic there. Now if she's a redhead, I might have to kick you or something.

                                      If I have accidentally said something witty, smart, or correct, it is purely by mistake and I apologize for it.

                                        You should have. Filthy inuendo is nothing to shy away from . I always recall Connery as Bond saying, when asked if he liked blondes: "If the collar and cuffs match". And this can be heard on a sunday afternoon! (I believe its Thunderball)

                                          It is when she puts on a fake Glaswegian Ned/Chav accent. Oh she's...sorta...red headed. Hair dye counts, right?
