The Doctor, of course! Mine would be Sylvester McCoy. ---

Sylvester would be my least favourite. Before NuWho I would have gone with Peter Davidson, as he was the Doctor when I was first watching. I prefer all the modern Doctors over the historics though. I really wish Ecclestone had done more than one series. ---

I see a lot of the old guard are voting for Tom Baker. ---

It’s a tough choice as I like them all. But, I had to fall back to my first Doctor, Tom Baker. And yes, I had a long burgundy scarf that my mother knitted for me one Christmas which was totally awesome! ---

Glad to see I was consistent with my votes in both polls. 😃 Chris Eccleston, obviously. I like my Doctor dark and brooding. ---
