@blenkinsopthebrave, Hartnell is one of my faves. He kicked off the legacy with such a fascinating personality. And @winston, Eccleston did such a great job carrying that legacy forward.

Thank you both for responding and making me feel so welcome.

I’m loving reading everyone’s memories about when they discovered Doctor Who.

Being from the U.S., I didn’t know the show existed until my 30’s with the 2005 reprise; and I honestly don’t know how I lived without the show before then. I was in bed with the flu and ran across an episode with the Tenth Doctor. He was fiddling with the TARDIS console, and I was immediately intrigued. I loved the combination of complexity and playfulness. I watched episode after episode, and I will swear to anyone who asks that it made me get well faster.

That’s what Doctor Who continues to do for me to this day … lifts my spirits and makes me feel great.

I’ve gone back and watched every episode I can get my hands on, including classic Doctor Who. I call the Tenth Doctor “my doctor,” because he introduced me to the show, but I love them all.
