Mad respect for putting 6 at number 1. Honestly his big finish stories have become some of my favourite doctor who stories of all time.
Stories like the holy terror, the reaping, jubilee, the one doctor, doctor who and the pirates, davros, the marian conspiracy, arrangements for war, etc. He's just so fun at big finish, and his relationships with pretty much all his companions are great, but i love his dynamic with Evelyn the most.
Personally would have 4 and 8 higher, otherwise an interesting list.
Cheers
Very interesting isn't it? I love seeing an actual fan list rather than something like WhatCulture or WatchMojo as you know they only have the cliff notes on the series and it's not really people who have *watched* classic Who but maybe have seen clips or heard stuff, who writes those articles.
Colin would never be the bottom of so many lists if people had heard Big Finish, seen Vengeance on Varos and Trial of a Timelord. No offence but Baker is an experienced and great actor.
So when I see a list with him at the bottom and Tom and David at the top, I think 'aye, judged Colin by his costume and Twin Dilemma, have you?'
7th for me, he started off as a clown and then became darker and more complex as the series went on.
I’ve been watching classic who for the first time, so I can only rank the classic doctors that I’ve watched so far.
5. William Hartnell
4. Peter Davison
3. Jon Pertwee
2. Tom baker
1. Patrick Troughton
Awesome, hope you have been enjoying classic who.
@@mrdoctorgilmore I have, although the word “spy” has become my least favourite word at the moment. I miss the psychic paper.
@@anaveragenightlordsfan 🤣 fair enough
Oh my. The 4th Doctor placement is brave. Respect for you! Im not sure I agree with him leaving one season early is the thing though - his last season was Marvellous!
But he should have gone during the Key to Time.
Colin deserves his ranking on your list. Only Doctor I've met but warmest guy
It varies for me when it comes to s18, sometimes Tom's more melancholy and cold performance elevates a story, others it detracts.
@@caitypierulestheworld6963 Never watched any of Sean's episodes.
@@caitypierulestheworld6963 Oh you mean Jon, yes I've seen all his episodes, was wondering who Sean was.
@@caitypierulestheworld6963 Getting Jon and his son mixed up are we?
@@caitypierulestheworld6963 No it isn't. I've seen every existent episode of Doctor Who and recons of the missing ones. And I don't think this guy is wrong for putting Jon and Tom in his middle grouping. I personally wouldn't but it is his opinion and he has very good reasons for it.
And I'd say that at least two of the New Who Doctors are superior to Jon but that's just my personal opinion too.
God thank you 🙏
You're welcome 😊
I love Colin Baker’s interpretation of the part and how he has (in my mind) finally achieved it on audio, saying that I love season 22, I don’t understand why he always ends up in the bottom of every poll but I’m happy to be ignorant
I find Peter Davison to be underrated I don’t find his doctor bland at all, I love how his doctor had serious attitude problem at times and I think his acting protrayal in his darker stories is prefect especially in earthshock, enlightenment and season 21 which his acting protrayal in season 21 was where it was at peak especially in stories like Frontios, resurrection of the daleks and the caves of androzani, but to come to think about it he was a dark doctor, considering he killed two cybermen and omega, i am glad he left the show while at peak with his acting protrayal as the doctor, he would of been fine doing season 22, not sure about season 23 though but yet jon pertwee’s acting remained very consistent during his 5 year run on the show, Tom baker’s acting protrayal as the doctor was also still good during his 5th season, his acting protrayal as the doctor started to go down hill around season 17, McCoy would of been at peak with his acting protrayal as the doctor, if jnt did do season 27 same goes to C baker if he was aloud to do the show for 3 more seasons
Fair enough
@@mrdoctorgilmoreI mean, the 7th Doctor actually calls the 5th Doctor "the bland one" when they meet in Cold Fusion. 😂
I'd agree with you that 5th is not bland and a bit more nuanced than he seems, but I think him having a beige costume doesn't help. I think his outfit, whilst in keeping with the image JNT was going for, isn't the best. Better than Colin's maybe, but a step down from the first four.
Except when he wears the hat and it looks complete.
Davidson is one of the UKs most accomplished actors. Guy has done it all. So if his Doctor seems bland to some, there has to be some reason. I don't think it's Davidson's fault - I just think his Doctor struggles to be seen when standing next to Tegan's outfits. 😂
I place colin baker in last place
To compare, worst to best:
13th > Shalka > Curator > Ruth > Cushing > 9th > Valeyard > 8th > 5th > War > 3rd > 6th > 1st > 12th > 2nd / 10th equal > 11th > 7th
why are Shalka Curator Ruth Cushing and Valeyard in here there not officials ones in his 13 live span on the show 2 arent even canon
@@jcasali3391 The Curator is canon as he shows up in Day of the Doctor.
Ruth is very canon, for better or worse, as of The Fugitive, The Timeless Child and The Power of the Doctor.
And whether we like it or not, according to Trial of the Time Lord, the Valeyard is apparently a version of the Doctor.
Shalka and Cushing aren't canon, no. But then there's a fan theory that Shalka is created when the Great Intelligence possesses the Doctor and temporarily that timeline comes into being. Just a theory.
Nonetheless Shalka and Cushing are significant enough to be on my own personal list. But hey, if you don't want them, cool, I can post the same precise list without them if you'd like?
so you seriously like that Retcon of The Timeless Child sigh course you do@@JeremiahEcks777
@@jcasali3391 So, maybe the 'for better or worse' was a clue that I certainly do not.
Keep seeing patterns that aren't there.
why is Christopher Eccleston so low?@@JeremiahEcks777
Wow, Colin Baker has always been my worst doctor. Amazed you put him first. The stories were awful (not completely his fault) and he just didn't have a presence for me. Tom B is the best for me, just watched Pyramids of Mars again and he just owns the role. Each to their own...
