Dr Who – A tribute to the Years of Fantastic Drs and Companions

I am an avid Dr Who fan from way, way back. I have followed Dr Who since the days of William Hartnell.

So much of the early days were lost or incomplete because of incorrect storage at the time, especially many of the episodes starring Patrick Troughton.

As the doctors have changed over the years, so to have the doctors companions and the menacing aliens who are forever trying to enslave mankind, you know the ones I mean:

The Daleks, who were scary enough when I was a kid and who have now morphed into an even greater, more challenging enemy.

The Cybermen with their mindless, robotic threat to all and sundry – coldly logical.

And of course The Master, a renegade Time Lord and the nemesis of the Doctor.

With each series I am always a little concerned that the new doctor and any new companions won’t be up to the same standard as the previous ones. But I have to say I do like the new doctor ( David Tennant), and Rose is a hard act to follow.

I know that if someone gave me a boxed set of any of the series, I would be most appreciative. It’s good to see that the older series are being released on  DVD so if you have a friend who is a Dr Who fan these would make and ideal gift.

And of course there is a great range of Doctor Who books for the avid reader who is also a Dr who fan.
