The Ninth Doctor...

[fajrdrako]

doctorwho today posts an item from Entertainment Weekly about Doctor Who, basically saying how good it is. With which I can only agree. (It's a list of the 25 SF best SF shows.) But what I liked most was this part:

THE BEST BIT Check out the first season of the newest incarnation, featuring Heroes' Christopher Eccleston as the ninth Doctor (the best ever — apologies to Tom Baker) and the piercing, poignant wit of writer Russell T. Davies.

David Tennant is so popular I sometimes fear that Christopher Eccleston is forgotten; and I love Eccleston so much in the role.

Though I must say that the phrase "Heroes' Christopher Eccleston" made me smile.

The first season is my One True Love. I can't decide if Three or Four comes next.

Four, I think, for me. Three was wonderful because I loved Martha so much, but I wanted more happiness for her.

Actually, I changed contexts! I meant the Fourth Doctor and the Third Doctor. In other words, Nine is the Best Doctor Ever.

Ah! I see. I haven't seen Three at all, and not enough of Four to judge. I do like Ten, but Nine is ... I agree... best of all.
