Here are my favorite Dr. Who episodes, seperated by Doctor:
Hartnell: I only him by novelizations, and the three time that I have
seen him (3 Doctors, 5 Doctors, and An Unearthly Child seen at a
Convention). My fave has to be his last, The Teneth Planet, where the
Cybermen are introduced. This pick is rather subjective for me, for I
don't know this one that well.
Troughton: Without a doubt, Web of Fear. The Brigadier (then a
major as memory serves me). The Yetis, Earth London, but with a
science-fiction twist of a London in the last stages of an invasion.
Second place would be Wargames.
Pertwee: a toughie. There is no one that STANDS out for me. My pick
will go to Death to the Daleks, with Honorable mentions to Planet of
the Spiders, The Daemons, Inferno, and Colony in Space.
Baker: has to be Talons of Weng-Chiang. Give runner-up to a tie
between Pyramids of Mars and Logopolis.
Davisson: has to be Earthshock for the combination of the return of
the Cybermen and the getting rid of Adric. Give second place to
Time-Flight for although it was stupid it got rid of the character
that I dispised even more than Adric, which is Tegan. This is sure to
change though, for my fave will probably go to the episode where
Davisson regerates.
Hope fully this will get some bonfires going.
To further build up the fire, a few trivia questions, not from the
book:
What companion has been with all five Doctors as the same companion?
The woman who plays Susan, the first Doctor's Grandaughter, later
appears in what episode of Tom Baker's Doctor as a completely
differant character?
And as the last log in the fire, of the various single-serial
companions, who would YOU like to see as a companion that never became
one.

Um, I hate to break it to Walt Pesch, but the last I saw ("The King's
Daemons") Tegan was alive and well and still had an Australian accent.
I also thought this a peculiar omission in the Dr. Who chronology
recently broadcast to the net.
