Greetings! This is my first post on Lemmy and excited to see a DW sub already exists.

TL;DR - recently hit a second wind with Classic Who and really want to finish it before New who’s return in November

I’ve been a fan of new who since I was around 10 or so. Started off with Tennant and worked my way through 11 and ended up at 12th first season which just finished airing at the time. It fell out of my interest for many years only to be picked up again during flux. Not flux itself, it only reminded me how much I miss 9-12. During a rewatch it really got me thinking about classic who. Soon after I started watching that too! Started with Tom baker then jumped from timelord to timelord. Eventually I got burned out of classic who and put it on the shelve for awhile. With hype building for doctor 14 & 15 it got me thinking of the classic series again and how much I want to finish it before November. I’ve kept track of my watch progress with this excel document

Would love to hear who your favorite doctor is from either new or classic who

    I started with 10s last episodes The end of time. I had been watching something on BBC and the commercials for Tennants last episode looked so good I gave it a shot. By the time Capaldi was finished airing I couldn’t get enough. Took a long time but going through classic who was great and made me appreciate the show and charecter all the more. I gotta say Patrick Troughton was such a suprisingly good doctor, it sucks so many of his episodes are hard to find because he really softens the Doctor into a more caring and whimsical hero. Everyone point to Baker and he was great but 2 is probably my favorite classic who doctor.
