    >so where do you dissagree?

    Not you; Mike. And Delta City + Daleks seems like a bad idea....

      I think with him it was the cost cutting idea of keeping him on earth, you lot the time lord bit for me. but I grew up with tom baker, and all I can say is what were they tinking with the whole E-space/adric thing, that for me was the begining of the end of the doctor, it started it's slide to lower production values and wreteched scripts.

      Have you noticed in the last series the trend to borrow elemnts from classic who stories?
      Espace and adric was Jon Nathan Turner's creative vein (JNT took over when the Bergandy coat was adopted)

          Tom Baker was the Doctor I grew up with, and his stories will always be my favourites.
          I have vague recollections of seeing some older DW episodes as a kid in UK, but mostly my DW memories start when I was watching Tom Baker stories on PBS in Ontario.
          Had a bunch of the Target novelizations, too.

            Same here, pretty much. I noticed 'Masque of Mandragora' on PBS in Wisconsin on a Saturday afternoon, saw mention of him in an early Starlog, read some the Who paperbacks, then a buddy of mine invited me over to watch Who each week at his place, on a Chicago station I couldn't get. All over the course of about 2-3 months.

            Getting tired of all the millions spent and hype on cinema special effects after Star Wars, without much script or character substance or even imagination..

            I was hooked.
