Makes me sad that you give places to the fugitive doctor and mcgann but not Peter cushing in the movies? Feels like everyone forgets him and though there's cannon issues etc It would have been great to see him at least with an honorable mention. 😅
It's unfortunate he had conflicts with some of those in charge making it an uncomfortable working environment for him. He was invited back for cameos before but turned them down. It would have been fantastic to have gotten Eccleston rather than Tennant for the upcoming 60th special (Tennant has already had several specials including the 50th) which would have been something special given he was there for the series reboot.
I think Capaldi gave a wonderful mix of anger, kindness, courage, dry humor, self-sacrifice, and a little bit of romance with Clara (even though he wasn't a hug person LOL) At the end of his cycle, the character was mature, powerful, still with doubts but strong enough to fight for what he considered right. His solo episode is one of the most powerful in the whole series and a challenge to the actor himself. He should be in the top 3 list.
@@Adam-vg8dn Absolutely. A lot of people didn't give him a chance considering he was the youngest actor to play the character and the successor to Tennant. But boy did he prove them wrong.
Eccleston's "And you know what? So was I" still gives me goosebumps to this day!!! The ninth doctor is the most impactful to me because he was my first doctor and helped get the show back on everybody's radar but ten is the BEST in the terms of literally everything else
Eccleston is still my favorite. I remember watching his regeneration for the first time and having never seen it before, not knowing what was going on.
I didn't grow up with him (or anyone other Doctor honestly) I was too attached to Eccleston that I thought I was going to resent him and yet he turned out to be the one who owns my heart.
Every Whovian have their Doctor, that's so true. Mine is Eleventh. Matt Smith did a brilliant job at such young age - I remember people not believing he'd be able to carry the show after Tennant - but he shone. It made me really happy to see Matt's Eleven in third place. It's deserved.
I grew up with this show. My dad sat down my brother and I for Christopher Eccleston’s first episode telling us this was a show from his childhood, and we’ve never looked back. As much as I loved Eccleston, David Tennant was my Doctor. His wild enthusiasm, his perfect emoting, just about everything from his era (although looking back there was way too much romantic emphasis between him and Rose) was everything to me. Saturday nights for 13 weeks a year gave me an escape from school I needed, and for that I’ll never be grateful enough. So excited to see Tennant return as the 14th Doctor with my favourite companion, Donna Noble!!
John Hurt should have been higher, while he was barely in the show, the moments he was in the show was great. As for Jodie, she should have been lower.
They have to put something in there to piss people off so they make comments. I don't want to accept the idea they're so moronic they'd honestly put Hurt below so many others.
I feel like Capaldi doesn't get enough love. Yes, he had a bit of a rough start in his first season, but quickly improved himself for the latter 2, and in my opinion delivered the best season of the new series in season 9. Going from the youngest actor to one of the oldest, showing the age and wisdom and weariness of the millenia-old alien who's probably lived too long. And the 2-part zygon episode in season 9 alone being my absolute favorite story, and being the one to close River Song's story in the best way! He deserves his high spot
He didn't improve himself though in that way. He didn't need to improve himself. His nasty series 8 personality was all part of the characters three season long arc of sorting out the characters issues.
I actually think he was the worst of the new doctors (controversial I know!). Capaldi is a good actor, the character is cool, but he just isn't the doctor. There is an episode where he literally tells a child they aren't special (the doctor would NEVER - to quote 10; "I've never met anyone who isn't special"), he is constantly calling Clara fat and ugly, and he is generally unpleasant to everyone around him. I understand the concept of his nasty personality being part of a growth thing - but honestly, I didn't care for that. We saw a nasty, anger-filled Doctor with 9 and in my opinion, that was way more true to who the Doctor is as his core. Capaldi felt too far from the Doctor imo.
Also the fact he played the series' theme on the electric guitar, the fact he draws previous Doctors flawlessly, the fact it was the part of his life. He's the biggest Doctor Who fanboy and it really shows in his acting. I've always liked his grumpy temper mixed with kindness and protectiveness. David remains my favourite Doctor but Peter comes as a close second.
It must have been hard as hell ranking the top four...were I asked to make a list like this, I'd be up all night trying to figure Tom Baker vs. Tennant
Thing about the Doctor is when he/she regenerates the new personality is the opposite of the last personality. That's reason why i like Colin Baker's Doctor.
I grew up with Jon Pertwee (despite being born in the '90s) and I will always go back his stories. I love the man of action, sarcastic wit and his interactions with the Brigadier, UNIT and above all, Roger Delgado's Master.
I would say that Pertwee's era is arguably the most consistent from start to finish. And many of the best stories in the entire history of the program. They had great writers during that time frame.
@@JasonGaylor-v6l Couldn't agree more. With many of the other incarnations I'll only like a small selection of stories and those will be the only ones I normally go back to. But I'll happily watch every Jon Pertwee serial. The only other Doctor I can really say that about is David Tennant I think.
@@jensonkiin3678 The one's I constantly go back to are Pertwee's and Tom Baker's first five seasons. I don't think Tennant's era is all that consistent though.
@@JasonGaylor-v6l That's fair. I think it's just the sheer energy and portrayal by Tennent that draws me back. But yeah, hard to find a bad Baker story in those early series. In my top three for sure.
The Third Doctor (Jon Pertwee) is my personal favorite. He always rigorously stood up for what was right even when it conflicted with UNIT's interests, plus his relationship with the Master, and especially with his companion Jo Grant, were excellently crafted. Apart from that my ranking goes: 2) Matt Smith (11th) 3) Tom Baker (4th) 4) David Tennant (10th) 5) Patrick Troughton (2nd) Peter Capaldi I have to give mention to as he is only narrowly edged out of my top five; truly underrated compared to most NuWho.
While I am a sucker for David Tennant, Tom Baker's Fourth Doctor will always be the quintessential Doctor to me. Peter Capaldi's Twelfth Doctor though will always stick out as such a missed opportunity, because I loved his take on The Doctor but the writing for those Series just left a lot to be desired.
just saying it to pleese the wrong side of fans you where probably one of the fans who left doctor who just because the doctor that left and the doctor replaced him was matt smith and left and came back in 2023 and probably leave again after the 60th has gone passed :I
I'm old enough to say that Tom Baker was my Doctor as a kid, as I grew up watching the show on PBS. I've been able to go back and watch a lot of the old serials, plus following most of the new series. I didn't take to Matt Smith as much of the younger fandom has. He was a bit to manic for my taste. I thought that Peter Capaldi has the right mix of sarcasm, wit, melancholy and fun to match Tom Baker.
You're right. Us old school fans are the best judges because we've seen the classic and modern series and we actually have better attention spans. So, we can tell the difference between substance and style. We can recognize great writing. Nothing touches 1970's Doctor Who! T. Baker and Pertwee forever!
Same here. I watched Tom Baker's Doctor on Chicago's WTTW every Sunday night. In those days, PBS was the way many of us were introduced to British TV. Monty Python, The Goodies, Fawlty Towers, No, Honestly, and of course, Doctor Who.
Matt will always be my doctor, as it was during his tenure I became a Dr Who fan. I have since watched all doctors and all episodes it is possible to watch. I find joy in every doctor. Yes, even Colin Bakers doctor😁
Colin Baker's Doctor started off rough, but the character evolved over the short time he had. It's a shame people seem to focus on the first few episodes he was in and ignore the rest.
@@wallacewallaby5782Yeah but those few episodes were absolutely horrible. Later on he progressed but the other doctors are leagues beyond him except the fugitive doctor.
Ten is my favourite and then eleven. The others are meh imo. Didn't watch Capaldi's run. Who didn't get a mention here. He can't have been that bad. I saw him in the one he was in with River and he was good. So I don't get it.
Because the votes are likely made by younger audiences who idolize Tennant as their first Doctor. Tennant is fine but should probably be a few spots below Baker imo.
Christopher Eccleston was the first doctor I stuck around to see the whole series through. I saw bits and pieces of older series through pbs and my very first doctor was Baker, but I had no idea what I was watching and just ended up playing with my toys more than I watched the show. My favorite is Tennant, if course. Once he regenerated and became the 11th, my interest waned. There was just something about Smith I didn't like.
My first doctor was the Tenth. Was flipping through the TV and came across the episode "Silence in the Library". Didn't know what the show was, so immediately thought "Ooooh! Barry Crouch jr.!"Been a Whovian ever since. Also sad that Jodie's doctor didn't get to really show her potential. Jodie is such a great actress, in both drama (Broadchurch) and comedy (St. Trinians). Just a shame the writing made her doctor seem so....flat.
8:40 - Placing Seven @ Seven seems like a trend these days. Personally, I think 7+Ace are one of the best TARDIS teams, and it was nice to see them one more time in POTD.
When 7 had to tear down Ace to get her to stop believing in him by telling her he didn't care for her and how useless she was her devastated reaction tore my heart out. It's one of the only times I really felt like that in Doctor Who (the Rose being stuck in another universe stuff did nothing for me). She was an orphan and The Doctor was all she had. I don't remember the specifics of the episode but remember he had to do it to save her life.
I only saw a couple of those episodes, but I did like them very much. And he and Ace were prefect together. I don't think either one would have been as good with others.
My favorite is Matt Smith. None of the doctors made me laugh or cry more than he did. David Tennant is my second favorite and I wished Christopher Eccleston had more seasons because I enjoyed every second of his appearance as well.
I love David Tennant and let me say this I personally think that the thirteenth doctor they did her storyline wrong it didn't fit her Persona if they wrote a strong storyline that fit her Persona she will be way higher on the list
@@triplejazzmusicisall1883 okay you got to think about it if you get somebody that actually fitted her optimistic fun personality what does smidge of seriousness and is aiming towards the right direction you can have three Riders to do that that would have made her away more likable doctor and she would have been higher on the list that's all I'm saying
I see why six was last but it’s a perfect way to show that the doctor gets a new personality upon regeneration not just small little tweaks but the way he thinks changes
@@JasonGaylor-v6l😂 Tennant is literally the improved version of Tennant I literally watched Classic Who ( Only Bakers ) just to see if they were good. They are identical but Tennant is a much improved version of Baker, If you can't deal with it maybe you need to rewatch if you even did, Classic Who.
Fun fact: Patrick Troughton was the grandfather of Harry Melling, the actor who played Dudley Dursley in the Harry Potter films. Harry has stated that he'd like to play the Doctor, too.
Peter Davison is my favourite. He felt the most vulnerable as it felt believable that he could lose while others Doctors at some point you knew would always pull out a victory which made his stories more interesting. His final story also showed him as the most selfless of Doctor's as he gave his life to save one person rather than saving the galaxy like many of the others, loved his speech in the Caves of Androzani when he was bringing down the spaceship as you could hear genuine panic in his voice.
Peter Davsion is my favourite as I love his take on the Doctor and his stories are amongst some of the best ever written especially the Caves of Androzani. The 5th Doctor is also who I grew up watching as a small child so there is some nostalgia there for me too.
Peter Davison is horribly underestimated! He was terribly backlashed for portraying the Doctor in a very different way, especially since he immediately followed Tom Baker- an immensely popular Doctor who played the role for 7 years! It’s no wonder Davison left after only 3 years and it’s only in recent times that his work on the show has been rereviewed and appreciated! While I like Tom Baker, David Tennant and a few others better, I do like Peter Davison’s work.
I may have grown up with modern who as i was born in 92, but Tom Baker will always be my favourite doctor. Jon Pertwee in a close 2nd place with 3rd going to William Hartnell
Without commenting on the rankings, this video is so poorly researched that they claim to have put 13 so low in part, because she "only had three seasons" and "her time was short"? Um...every modern Doctor, except for 9 and 10-ish did three seasons. Admittedly, hers were slightly shorter seasons. But still, how many eyes did that glaring error get past?
Exactly. Each modern Doctor Who actor after Christopher Eccleston has played the role for three seasons. David Tennant was the Tenth Doctor from Seasons 2 to 4. Matt Smith was the Eleventh Doctor from Seasons 5 to 7, and Peter Capaldi was the Twelfth Doctor from Seasons 8 to 10.
The Fourth Doctor is far and away the best for me Twelve is #2 followed by Nine at #3. The rest are all portrayed by fantastic actors as well and can be numbered in any order afterwards.
A question that (probably) will never be answered: Would either Hartnell or Troughton be ranked differently if the entirety of their catalogue as The Doctor was available? For those who don't know, the BBC had an utterly annoying policy of taping over any number of their old shows (not just "Doctor Who") as a cost-cutting measure. Many of the shows from the first two Doctors suffered this fate and the only reason we have as many episodes of them as we do is courtesy of video and/or film copies that have shown up in various places around the world.
It's hard to rank something you can't see, and it's a shame. At least there's audio of most of them even if the video no longer exists. The 2nd Doctor and Jamie were a great duo. The only think I curse the 2nd Doctor for is the introduction of the Sonic Screwdriver, although back then it was used specifically AS a screwdriver rather than the magic wand it is now.
I watched William Hartnell as the Doctor he was brilliant. I only hope that the 60th anniversary against the Toymaker is as good as the one I remember. Tom Baker should have come in 4 and Matt Smith at number 1
The whole Rose storyline was more relevant to me than the doctor's who encountered her. So tragic but so much emotion in Tenant's last encounter at bad wolf bay,, best episode by far
When they brought up the first doctor I just realized how much they hosed us on seeing his granddaughter again. We got the granddaughter of leftbridge stuart we could've gotten another version of her or her son. I know the audio dramas have more but I kinda wanted more on screen appearances. Also do a top 20 of companions next.
I first saw David Tennant on TV as the 10th doctor, and I grew up with him, but quickly abandonned doctor who, only to come back to it years later and got attached to Patrick Troughton, Jon Pertwee and Tom Baker as doctors. People are *urging* me to watch Peter Capaldi as soon as I can, so I'm pretty excited. I have my soft spot for David Tennant, but Patrick Troughton, Jon Pertwee and Tom Baker are very very high on my list of favourite doctors
2nd was one of the best with Jamie as his companion. Great chemistry. His first episode I was "meh" about since all he did was play that darn flute and barely said a thing, but the rest of his run was great. Although it was that Doctor that gave us the Sonic Screwdriver, but back then it was just a literal screwdriver rather than a magic wand so I can forgive him for that.
My Best to Worst Doctors: 1. David Tennant 2. Tom Baker 3. Jon Pertwee 4. Matt Smith 5. Patrick Troughton 6. Peter Capaldi 7. Sylvester McCoy 8. William Hartnell 9. Christopher Eccleston 10. Peter Davison 11. Paul McGann 12. John Hurt 13. Jo Martin 14. Colin Baker 15. Jodie Whittaker Honorable Mention: David Bradley
Five will forever be my Doctor. He's one I grew up watching until my parents stopped me watching when it got too scary (in their eyes). But Six is kind of my Doc as well as I grew up with him as well as Five. And I will defend him and Colin until my dying day.
The only Dr Who I ever watched was the first guy. I used to run home from school so I could watch it (maybe re runs) when I was 8 or 9. Realtors had no idea what was going on but I loved it never realizing the Dr Who character would become so iconic.
Lol at "we only placed Jodie this low because her stay was so short" but then put Paul McGann and Christopher Eccleston above her 😬 The truth is she was let down by below-average episodes! 😥
I just want to lay this out there. It’s not that Jodie Whittaker was a bad Doctor. It’s not that she was a woman. It’s that she was given shit material. Everyone who made Doctor Who great had pretty much left the show at this point. Give her credit. She had to work with what was handed to her. And she still pulled off a believable Doctor.
I'm sure there are plenty of people who would consider him overrated, but David Tennant is definitely my Doctor. While I do think RTD DID go a little overboard by having him need to kiss literally every young female companion (to be fair, it still grated on me less than how heavily Moffat tended to sexualize Matt Smith), I always loved his more human take on the role. Imo Ten was the most broken version of the Doctor. He was tormented by guilt and regret, and ultimately just wanted a place to belong. I really resonated with his tragic character arc. All that said, I also LOVE Eccleston and Capaldi's versions of the character, and I haven't watched all the Classics at this point, but of what I've seen so far, I'm a fan of the Patrick Troughton and Sylvester McCoy.
I actually quite liked Colin Baker's Doctor. I would've put Paul McGann last and McCoy lower than C Baker. Also don't like how the fugitive Doctor is above C Baker.
I'm Gen X. I grew up on the 4th Doctor on PBS and have always put him at number one. No one else even comes close. Tennant is overrated. And many of the best stories come from Jon Pertwee's era.
My top 5 favorite Doctors 1. David Tennant 2. Jon Pertwee 3. Tom Baker 4. Peter Capaldi 5. Matt Smith I will admit Paul McCann is my least favorite Doctor on account that I just couldn't connect with the guy. (John Hurt can do any role justice)
1, Patrick Troughton 2, William Hartnell, David Bradley 3, Tom Baker 4,Peter Capaldi 5, John Pertwee 6, David Tennant 7, Christopher Eccleston Colin Baker was underated
Everyone has there own list, I think I agree about the Doctors in the top 5 just would amend the order slightly. For me personally it would be Baker, Tennant, Capaldi, Smith & Ecclestone
The wonderful thing about TEN is that he is also exists as the Meta-Crisis-Doctor and as FOURTEEN. You simply never get enough of him. I'm very curious to see how FIFTEEN will fit into the ranking one day, but after the first episodes of his first season, I'm convinced he'll be a fan favourite too.
Don't understand why the fugitive doctor is on there, she just doesn't make sense to me, no idea why she was brought in, like what was the point? Jodie Whittaker would unfortunately be last for me. Cannot remember a single episode or a title or anything, it was just terrible. Maybe if she had better writing it could've been something. Tennant at 1 is 100% correct, he was the embodiment of the Doctor, just incredible.
7 was and is my Doctor, along with Ace they were the template for Modern Who, he also, especially in the last season brought the darkness to Doctor Who
Same here. I'll always find the dark and more mysterious side of the Doctor more interesting than the usual do-good explorer. You don't live that long and see that much without breaking a few eggs along the way.
Although everyone has their favourites, I think every Doctor Who fan owes a lot to Patrick Througton and Christopher Eccleston. Throughton because it showed that the series could change it's leading man without it becoming a gimmick while allowing the show to change and Eccleston because it showed Doctor Who could have a place in the 21st century.
Hear, hear! Eccleston was my first doctor and he was so full of energy, but also incredibly humane and somehow ancient. I remember fearing that I could never continue watching the show after his regeneration... but that only shows how much you know.
Only the Doctors of the 2000s count for me; saw bits in the 70s when little, didn't appeal. Chris was the 1st & love him for it! What little I got to see of Jodie really amused me, & David I saw the most -- & adore his fast-talking quirkiness! (Also, have great-grandparents named Tennant, so go "kinsman"! 😁) Rest... meh.
I feel the opposite. The modern series hasn't really done much for me at all. The writing has been weak throughout with only the sporadic good story here and there. Whereas during the 1970's especially, you have great writers, depth and development of characters, superb acting, and just great stories all around(many of them with powerful social commentary). And lastly, I don't think any of the modern actors to play the Doctor can touch Tom Baker or even Jon Pertwee. They don't call it the "golden era" for nothing, ya know.
Smith is the best in my opinion. He brought a sense of wonder back to the Doctor that, while an understated necessity to the role, I feel was overlooked in other performances.
I don't know why some younger people can't or rather won't watch the classic series. They are missing out. I don't get it. I know what quality is and it has zero to do with when something was made. Many of my favorite films and tv shows come from before I was born. Many of my favorite albums are from before I was born. It's about quality and substance.

Yes! My favorite Doctor. Granted I never watched the original run.
Capaldi is also my favorite
Best by far but watch mojo cares more abt popularity
@brobro9169 yeah I know but that won't change my mind ya know?
Agree. Capaldi was the best.
Matt Smith got some damned good lines but one of his best is one of the simplest.
“Hello. I’m the doctor. Basically… run.”
An echo of Troughton's MO.
"Bow ties are COOL!"
It was actually a callback to 10. He actually said this line first
The BBC literally thought the show would fail after Tennant left. That's how damn good he was. He was a generational treasure.
@@Sundae_Times Huh? Oh the 'literally' was quite unnecessary wasn't it? You're probably right.

If that's true , that is extremely arrogant of the BBC. For me, Tennant was around No.5 (Baker is my No.1). Tennant was good, but not great.
Eccleston's "And you know what? So was I" still gives me goosebumps to this day!!!
The ninth doctor is the most impactful to me because he was my first doctor and helped get the show back on everybody's radar but ten is the BEST in the terms of literally everything else
Eccleston is still my favorite. I remember watching his regeneration for the first time and having never seen it before, not knowing what was going on.
I remember thinking David tennant was some evil person who was impersonating the doctor until the next episode.
No. Tom Baker is the best. Tennant is overrated.
@@JasonGaylor-v6l Hater
its a hilarious out of context scene of him just smiling really quick and burst out in regeneration.

Factssss💯
I didn't grow up with him (or anyone other Doctor honestly) I was too attached to Eccleston that I thought I was going to resent him and yet he turned out to be the one who owns my heart.
Every Whovian have their Doctor, that's so true. Mine is Eleventh. Matt Smith did a brilliant job at such young age - I remember people not believing he'd be able to carry the show after Tennant - but he shone.

Matt Smith will forever be my Doctor. The fairy tale behind his time, the comedy, the companions. Chefs kiss.
He’s my doctor too
Yes I completely agree I couldn't have said it better myself.
100% agreed
I don’t mind him, but his episodes just got too confusing, with the whole river song being amy’s daughter and everything!
Season 5 was just magical. My most rewatched season of Who by a long shot.
I grew up with this show. My dad sat down my brother and I for Christopher Eccleston’s first episode telling us this was a show from his childhood, and we’ve never looked back.
As much as I loved Eccleston, David Tennant was my Doctor. His wild enthusiasm, his perfect emoting, just about everything from his era (although looking back there was way too much romantic emphasis between him and Rose) was everything to me. Saturday nights for 13 weeks a year gave me an escape from school I needed, and for that I’ll never be grateful enough.
So excited to see Tennant return as the 14th Doctor with my favourite companion, Donna Noble!!
Watch more Classic Who and Tom Baker. That's the golden era.
Well, I think that's lovely. That's how the show should be experienced.
@@JasonGaylor-v6l ACE AND SEVEN!

I liked Jodie
John Hurt should have been higher, while he was barely in the show, the moments he was in the show was great.
As for Jodie, she should have been lower.
Jodie was good. Let down by her writing.
John Hurt played a major role in one episode versus Jodie's 3 seasons so she deserves to be higher.
They have to put something in there to piss people off so they make comments. I don't want to accept the idea they're so moronic they'd honestly put Hurt below so many others.
I feel like Capaldi doesn't get enough love. Yes, he had a bit of a rough start in his first season, but quickly improved himself for the latter 2, and in my opinion delivered the best season of the new series in season 9. Going from the youngest actor to one of the oldest, showing the age and wisdom and weariness of the millenia-old alien who's probably lived too long. And the 2-part zygon episode in season 9 alone being my absolute favorite story, and being the one to close River Song's story in the best way! He deserves his high spot
He didn't improve himself though in that way. He didn't need to improve himself. His nasty series 8 personality was all part of the characters three season long arc of sorting out the characters issues.
capaldis doctor had the most development of all, what a pitty moffats burnout ruined the later part of his run
I actually think he was the worst of the new doctors (controversial I know!). Capaldi is a good actor, the character is cool, but he just isn't the doctor. There is an episode where he literally tells a child they aren't special (the doctor would NEVER - to quote 10; "I've never met anyone who isn't special"), he is constantly calling Clara fat and ugly, and he is generally unpleasant to everyone around him. I understand the concept of his nasty personality being part of a growth thing - but honestly, I didn't care for that. We saw a nasty, anger-filled Doctor with 9 and in my opinion, that was way more true to who the Doctor is as his core. Capaldi felt too far from the Doctor imo.
Also the fact he played the series' theme on the electric guitar, the fact he draws previous Doctors flawlessly, the fact it was the part of his life. He's the biggest Doctor Who fanboy and it really shows in his acting. I've always liked his grumpy temper mixed with kindness and protectiveness. David remains my favourite Doctor but Peter comes as a close second.
Tom Baker was the first Doctor I saw. My local PBS station used to play reruns. By
It I absolutely am in love with the 10th.
If you have a RetroTV channel near you, they're currently broadcasting Classic Who reruns!
Was it Ch. 11 in Chicago?
It must have been hard as hell ranking the top four...were I asked to make a list like this, I'd be up all night trying to figure Tom Baker vs. Tennant
Thing about the Doctor is when he/she regenerates the new personality is the opposite of the last personality. That's reason why i like Colin Baker's Doctor.

Such a typical bland pairing.

Yes! I too love them both equal. Can't wait for the 60th Anniversary.
Capaldi is my favorite Doctor with David Tennant being almost a tie. I just love both of them so much!
I grew up with Jon Pertwee (despite being born in the '90s) and I will always go back his stories. I love the man of action, sarcastic wit and his interactions with the Brigadier, UNIT and above all, Roger Delgado's Master.
I would say that Pertwee's era is arguably the most consistent from start to finish. And many of the best stories in the entire history of the program. They had great writers during that time frame.
@@JasonGaylor-v6l Couldn't agree more. With many of the other incarnations I'll only like a small selection of stories and those will be the only ones I normally go back to. But I'll happily watch every Jon Pertwee serial. The only other Doctor I can really say that about is David Tennant I think.
@@jensonkiin3678 The one's I constantly go back to are Pertwee's and Tom Baker's first five seasons. I don't think Tennant's era is all that consistent though.
@@JasonGaylor-v6l That's fair. I think it's just the sheer energy and portrayal by Tennent that draws me back. But yeah, hard to find a bad Baker story in those early series. In my top three for sure.
The Third Doctor (Jon Pertwee) is my personal favorite. He always rigorously stood up for what was right even when it conflicted with UNIT's interests, plus his relationship with the Master, and especially with his companion Jo Grant, were excellently crafted.
Apart from that my ranking goes:
2) Matt Smith (11th)
3) Tom Baker (4th)
4) David Tennant (10th)
5) Patrick Troughton (2nd)
Peter Capaldi I have to give mention to as he is only narrowly edged out of my top five; truly underrated compared to most NuWho.
While I am a sucker for David Tennant, Tom Baker's Fourth Doctor will always be the quintessential Doctor to me. Peter Capaldi's Twelfth Doctor though will always stick out as such a missed opportunity, because I loved his take on The Doctor but the writing for those Series just left a lot to be desired.
I personally love Moffat and his writing especially for 12. I am only finding out now there are some who did not like his style thats ok :)
And what was the deal with him replacing the Sonic Screwdriver for those Sonic Sunglasses?
he's not that special
Tom Baker forever -- with the short, but memorable Paul McCann -- he needed more time imo
Fell in love with Eleven with one phrase: "hello, I'm the doctor. Basically, run"
that's why he's the best
cringe
It’s always Tennant and Baker for the number 1 and 2 spot. After that, fans mostly just mix and match their own lists based on taste.
Me who puts Tennant at the bottom *laughs nervously*😅
Tennant is so overrated don't know what the big appeal is.
@@salliewagenblatt5188 I'm curious, who Is your favorite then
@@Renfield97 Don't blame you lol
just saying it to pleese the wrong side of fans you where probably one of the fans who left doctor who just because the doctor that left and the doctor replaced him was matt smith and left and came back in 2023 and probably leave again after the 60th has gone passed :I
I'm old enough to say that Tom Baker was my Doctor as a kid, as I grew up watching the show on PBS. I've been able to go back and watch a lot of the old serials, plus following most of the new series. I didn't take to Matt Smith as much of the younger fandom has. He was a bit to manic for my taste. I thought that Peter Capaldi has the right mix of sarcasm, wit, melancholy and fun to match Tom Baker.
You're right. Us old school fans are the best judges because we've seen the classic and modern series and we actually have better attention spans. So, we can tell the difference between substance and style. We can recognize great writing. Nothing touches 1970's Doctor Who! T. Baker and Pertwee forever!
Same here. I watched Tom Baker's Doctor on Chicago's WTTW every Sunday night. In those days, PBS was the way many of us were introduced to British TV. Monty Python, The Goodies, Fawlty Towers, No, Honestly, and of course, Doctor Who.
Matt will always be my doctor, as it was during his tenure I became a Dr Who fan. I have since watched all doctors and all episodes it is possible to watch. I find joy in every doctor. Yes, even Colin Bakers doctor😁
Colin Baker's Doctor started off rough, but the character evolved over the short time he had. It's a shame people seem to focus on the first few episodes he was in and ignore the rest.
@@wallacewallaby5782Yeah but those few episodes were absolutely horrible. Later on he progressed but the other doctors are leagues beyond him except the fugitive doctor.
Ten is my favourite and then eleven. The others are meh imo.
Didn't watch Capaldi's run. Who didn't get a mention here. He can't have been that bad. I saw him in the one he was in with River and he was good. So I don't get it.
@@louwinters508He's number 4.
How is Tom Baker not number 1?
Because David Tennant was incredible in the role.
I was wondering that as well
Its fine that the 4th Doctor is on the #2 spot. The 10th Doctor did really great during his tenure.
Because the votes are likely made by younger audiences who idolize Tennant as their first Doctor. Tennant is fine but should probably be a few spots below Baker imo.
Because compared to most modern Doctors he wasn’t great
Christopher Eccleston was the first doctor I stuck around to see the whole series through.
I saw bits and pieces of older series through pbs and my very first doctor was Baker, but I had no idea what I was watching and just ended up playing with my toys more than I watched the show.
My favorite is Tennant, if course. Once he regenerated and became the 11th, my interest waned. There was just something about Smith I didn't like.
I tell people that Troughton is my classic favourite, Eccleston modern, and Colin Baker for Big Finish.
Same
My first doctor was the Tenth. Was flipping through the TV and came across the episode "Silence in the Library". Didn't know what the show was, so immediately thought "Ooooh! Barry Crouch jr.!"Been a Whovian ever since.
Also sad that Jodie's doctor didn't get to really show her potential. Jodie is such a great actress, in both drama (Broadchurch) and comedy (St. Trinians). Just a shame the writing made her doctor seem so....flat.
8:40 - Placing Seven @ Seven seems like a trend these days. Personally, I think 7+Ace are one of the best TARDIS teams, and it was nice to see them one more time in POTD.
When 7 had to tear down Ace to get her to stop believing in him by telling her he didn't care for her and how useless she was her devastated reaction tore my heart out. It's one of the only times I really felt like that in Doctor Who (the Rose being stuck in another universe stuff did nothing for me). She was an orphan and The Doctor was all she had. I don't remember the specifics of the episode but remember he had to do it to save her life.
I only saw a couple of those episodes, but I did like them very much. And he and Ace were prefect together. I don't think either one would have been as good with others.
My favorite is Matt Smith. None of the doctors made me laugh or cry more than he did. David Tennant is my second favorite and I wished Christopher Eccleston had more seasons because I enjoyed every second of his appearance as well.
Top three are my favorites in the Doctor Who line up! But all of these actors and actress bring something different to time table ❤
I love David Tennant and let me say this I personally think that the thirteenth doctor they did her storyline wrong it didn't fit her Persona if they wrote a strong storyline that fit her Persona she will be way higher on the list
@@triplejazzmusicisall1883 okay you got to think about it if you get somebody that actually fitted her optimistic fun personality what does smidge of seriousness and is aiming towards the right direction you can have three Riders to do that that would have made her away more likable doctor and she would have been higher on the list that's all I'm saying
I see why six was last but it’s a perfect way to show that the doctor gets a new personality upon regeneration not just small little tweaks but the way he thinks changes
The 4th Doctor Tom Baker was my introduction to Doctor Who and still my favourite Doctor to this day!
David Tennant is easily the best doctor, followed by Matt smith. Loved both but Tennant made me feel so many different emotions
Let me guess. You've seen little to no "Classic Who"? Otherwise, you wouldn't say that. Tom Baker is easily the best doctor and it's not even close.
@@JasonGaylor-v6l That's just your opinion. Everyone has different tastes
@@samuelnicholson7905 pretty much a fact though. Id put both pertwee and baker above tennant
i started watching clasic who due to comments like these i have to agree with them
@@JasonGaylor-v6l😂 Tennant is literally the improved version of Tennant I literally watched Classic Who ( Only Bakers ) just to see if they were good. They are identical but Tennant is a much improved version of Baker, If you can't deal with it maybe you need to rewatch if you even did, Classic Who.
Fun fact: Patrick Troughton was the grandfather of Harry Melling, the actor who played Dudley Dursley in the Harry Potter films. Harry has stated that he'd like to play the Doctor, too.
10:51 Christopher Eccleston
15:59 David Tennant
Christopher Eccleston got me into Doctor Who back in 2005
Peter Davison is my favourite. He felt the most vulnerable as it felt believable that he could lose while others Doctors at some point you knew would always pull out a victory which made his stories more interesting. His final story also showed him as the most selfless of Doctor's as he gave his life to save one person rather than saving the galaxy like many of the others, loved his speech in the Caves of Androzani when he was bringing down the spaceship as you could hear genuine panic in his voice.
I agree with this. He was my favorite. I started watching with Baker, but Davison seemed far more relatable
Peter Davsion is my favourite as I love his take on the Doctor and his stories are amongst some of the best ever written especially the Caves of Androzani. The 5th Doctor is also who I grew up watching as a small child so there is some nostalgia there for me too.
I liked him too
He's mine as well. Forever my Doc.
Peter Davison is horribly underestimated! He was terribly backlashed for portraying the Doctor in a very different way, especially since he immediately followed Tom Baker- an immensely popular Doctor who played the role for 7 years! It’s no wonder Davison left after only 3 years and it’s only in recent times that his work on the show has been rereviewed and appreciated! While I like Tom Baker, David Tennant and a few others better, I do like Peter Davison’s work.
I may have grown up with modern who as i was born in 92, but Tom Baker will always be my favourite doctor. Jon Pertwee in a close 2nd place with 3rd going to William Hartnell
You got it right!
Without commenting on the rankings, this video is so poorly researched that they claim to have put 13 so low in part, because she "only had three seasons" and "her time was short"? Um...every modern Doctor, except for 9 and 10-ish did three seasons. Admittedly, hers were slightly shorter seasons. But still, how many eyes did that glaring error get past?
Yeah I found that baffling too... 3 series' is standard at this point
This bugged me too. The classic doctors were also mostly less than 3 years.
Yup. Poor research at best.
Exactly. Each modern Doctor Who actor after Christopher Eccleston has played the role for three seasons. David Tennant was the Tenth Doctor from Seasons 2 to 4. Matt Smith was the Eleventh Doctor from Seasons 5 to 7, and Peter Capaldi was the Twelfth Doctor from Seasons 8 to 10.
The Fourth Doctor is far and away the best for me Twelve is #2 followed by Nine at #3. The rest are all portrayed by fantastic actors as well and can be numbered in any order afterwards.
Your just trying to be different and that's all there is to it.
10th served as my introduction to Doctor Who so I'm extra excited to see David Tennant back as the 14th.
A question that (probably) will never be answered: Would either Hartnell or Troughton be ranked differently if the entirety of their catalogue as The Doctor was available?
For those who don't know, the BBC had an utterly annoying policy of taping over any number of their old shows (not just "Doctor Who") as a cost-cutting measure. Many of the shows from the first two Doctors suffered this fate and the only reason we have as many episodes of them as we do is courtesy of video and/or film copies that have shown up in various places around the world.
It's hard to rank something you can't see, and it's a shame. At least there's audio of most of them even if the video no longer exists.
The 2nd Doctor and Jamie were a great duo. The only think I curse the 2nd Doctor for is the introduction of the Sonic Screwdriver, although back then it was used specifically AS a screwdriver rather than the magic wand it is now.
@@wallacewallaby5782 Too, the Second Doctor was the first to make bow ties cool, and the first to incorporate the advice: “When all else fails- RUN!”😄
I watched William Hartnell as the Doctor he was brilliant.
I only hope that the 60th anniversary against the Toymaker is as good as the one I remember.
Tom Baker should have come in 4 and Matt Smith at number 1
@@gillianhynes7120 Tom Baker has been ranked as the best Doctor more times than anyone else...and for good reason.
@@JasonGaylor-v6l that's the thing not everyone agrees on the same Doctor
The whole Rose storyline was more relevant to me than the doctor's who encountered her. So tragic but so much emotion in Tenant's last encounter at bad wolf bay,, best episode by far
When they brought up the first doctor I just realized how much they hosed us on seeing his granddaughter again. We got the granddaughter of leftbridge stuart we could've gotten another version of her or her son. I know the audio dramas have more but I kinda wanted more on screen appearances. Also do a top 20 of companions next.
I first saw David Tennant on TV as the 10th doctor, and I grew up with him, but quickly abandonned doctor who, only to come back to it years later and got attached to Patrick Troughton, Jon Pertwee and Tom Baker as doctors. People are *urging* me to watch Peter Capaldi as soon as I can, so I'm pretty excited. I have my soft spot for David Tennant, but Patrick Troughton, Jon Pertwee and Tom Baker are very very high on my list of favourite doctors
The Second Doctor in 8th place?????????????????????????????????????
This list is pure comedy 😂
2nd was one of the best with Jamie as his companion. Great chemistry. His first episode I was "meh" about since all he did was play that darn flute and barely said a thing, but the rest of his run was great. Although it was that Doctor that gave us the Sonic Screwdriver, but back then it was just a literal screwdriver rather than a magic wand so I can forgive him for that.
Agree. I put Troughton over most of the modern Doctors.
I will always love all of them, each of them had a unique spark to them.
My Best to Worst Doctors:
1. David Tennant
2. Tom Baker
3. Jon Pertwee
4. Matt Smith
5. Patrick Troughton
6. Peter Capaldi
7. Sylvester McCoy
8. William Hartnell
9. Christopher Eccleston
10. Peter Davison
11. Paul McGann
12. John Hurt
13. Jo Martin
14. Colin Baker
15. Jodie Whittaker
Honorable Mention: David Bradley
Five will forever be my Doctor. He's one I grew up watching until my parents stopped me watching when it got too scary (in their eyes). But Six is kind of my Doc as well as I grew up with him as well as Five. And I will defend him and Colin until my dying day.
Amen!!!
The only Dr Who I ever watched was the first guy. I used to run home from school so I could watch it (maybe re runs) when I was 8 or 9. Realtors had no idea what was going on but I loved it never realizing the Dr Who character would become so iconic.
If any of you are interested in more Doctor Who like the 8th Doctor, Big Finish has some amazing writing and voice acting.
I want to see more of the Eighth Doctor and the Fugitive Doctor on the regular series!
David Tennant (Doctor #10/14)is great- but my Number One will always be Tom Baker (Doctor #4)!
I remember watching 'Dont Blink'... a masterpiece. The 10th and Martha Jones ' arc was special for me...
I agree because I am a qualified lesbian
I don't understand why Martha doesn't get more love. She was amazing and, for my taste, less needy and dramatic than Rose.
Lol at "we only placed Jodie this low because her stay was so short" but then put Paul McGann and Christopher Eccleston above her 😬 The truth is she was let down by below-average episodes! 😥
I did love Jodie last words as her doctor "blossoming blossoms, doctor whoever I'm about to be, tag your it"
Patrick is my favorite, Jamie was the best companion so much so there’s a popular series based on him!
2nd Doc and Jamie were a fantastic on screen. Great chemistry and funny. I believe the actors were friends off-screen as well.
Can we all just agree that this is an amazing character? Doctor Who? No better character. Doctor Who, is infinite. Just amazing.
It’s a real shame big finish isn’t even considered here because Colin baker and Paul McGann are incredible there
Colin Baker #1, McGann #2, Capaldi #3 for me.
I just want to lay this out there. It’s not that Jodie Whittaker was a bad Doctor. It’s not that she was a woman. It’s that she was given shit material. Everyone who made Doctor Who great had pretty much left the show at this point. Give her credit. She had to work with what was handed to her. And she still pulled off a believable Doctor.
I cant really rank all the doctors, they all make the role their own, can we not just love each one for what they are?
You got the first place right and although Eccleston is my second favourite, it’s hard to argue against Tom Baker in second.
I'm sure there are plenty of people who would consider him overrated, but David Tennant is definitely my Doctor. While I do think RTD DID go a little overboard by having him need to kiss literally every young female companion (to be fair, it still grated on me less than how heavily Moffat tended to sexualize Matt Smith), I always loved his more human take on the role. Imo Ten was the most broken version of the Doctor. He was tormented by guilt and regret, and ultimately just wanted a place to belong. I really resonated with his tragic character arc.
All that said, I also LOVE Eccleston and Capaldi's versions of the character, and I haven't watched all the Classics at this point, but of what I've seen so far, I'm a fan of the Patrick Troughton and Sylvester McCoy.
I actually quite liked Colin Baker's Doctor. I would've put Paul McGann last and McCoy lower than C Baker. Also don't like how the fugitive Doctor is above C Baker.
Colin Baker's Doctor gets unfairly judged based on his early episodes. The character evolves and gets much better by the end.
@@wallacewallaby5782 so true
#1. Tom Baker. #2 everyone else. This has been another episode of Tell Me You’re GenX Without Telling Me You’re GenX.
I'm Gen X. I grew up on the 4th Doctor on PBS and have always put him at number one. No one else even comes close. Tennant is overrated. And many of the best stories come from Jon Pertwee's era.
@@JasonGaylor-v6l "overrated" hahahahaha you is joker bro.
McCoy ad-libbed ""Unlimited rice pudding!!!!"Genius.
Hope to hear more Jodie Whittaker Doctor, if she agrees to do Big Finish Audio Adventures, like Paul McGann did for his Doctor.
My top 5 favorite Doctors
1. David Tennant
2. Jon Pertwee
3. Tom Baker
4. Peter Capaldi
5. Matt Smith
I will admit Paul McCann is my least favorite Doctor on account that I just couldn't connect with the guy.
(John Hurt can do any role justice)
It was a cool video. For me the top5 would be from bottom to top: 11th, 3rd, 10th, 12th, 4th. 😎
1, Patrick Troughton
2, William Hartnell, David Bradley
3, Tom Baker
4,Peter Capaldi
5, John Pertwee
6, David Tennant
7, Christopher Eccleston
Colin Baker was underated
Everyone has there own list, I think I agree about the Doctors in the top 5 just would amend the order slightly. For me personally it would be Baker, Tennant, Capaldi, Smith & Ecclestone
My first three would be 3. Baker, 2. Eccleston, 1. Tennant.
I won’t argue with Jodie Whitaker’s placement, but giving her “short” tenure as reason is really weird since 3 series/seasons is basically the norm.
David Tennant and then Matt Smith for me :)
The wonderful thing about TEN is that he is also exists as the Meta-Crisis-Doctor and as FOURTEEN. You simply never get enough of him.
I'm very curious to see how FIFTEEN will fit into the ranking one day, but after the first episodes of his first season, I'm convinced he'll be a fan favourite too.
Wrong. The only correct answer for worst is Jodie Whittaker
I agree. Matt Smith is MY Doctor but Tom Baker is THE Doctor. No one else has been so "Doctor."
I am really shocked ! Where is my GOAT, Rowan Atkinson ?
David tennant will always be my doctor. He's the one my dad introduced me to. And his stories are the best.
Unfortunately I've only gotten to see the first seven doctors plus the TV movie. My favorite would be a Tom Baker followed by Patrick Troughton
Tom Baker is easily my favorite
Don't understand why the fugitive doctor is on there, she just doesn't make sense to me, no idea why she was brought in, like what was the point? Jodie Whittaker would unfortunately be last for me. Cannot remember a single episode or a title or anything, it was just terrible. Maybe if she had better writing it could've been something. Tennant at 1 is 100% correct, he was the embodiment of the Doctor, just incredible.
Christopher Eccleston will forever be my favorite doctor. He is fantastic.
7 was and is my Doctor, along with Ace they were the template for Modern Who, he also, especially in the last season brought the darkness to Doctor Who
Same here. I'll always find the dark and more mysterious side of the Doctor more interesting than the usual do-good explorer. You don't live that long and see that much without breaking a few eggs along the way.
I think there are many fan theories the woman the 7th doctor spoke to near at the end of the last episode of survival was Rose's mum
@@animelovers000really?
Although everyone has their favourites, I think every Doctor Who fan owes a lot to Patrick Througton and Christopher Eccleston. Throughton because it showed that the series could change it's leading man without it becoming a gimmick while allowing the show to change and Eccleston because it showed Doctor Who could have a place in the 21st century.
Hear, hear! Eccleston was my first doctor and he was so full of energy, but also incredibly humane and somehow ancient. I remember fearing that I could never continue watching the show after his regeneration... but that only shows how much you know.
The Best Doctor and Eleventh, by Matt Smith.
Too nice and energetic.
Nine will always be underrated. He BROUGHT the show back.
Only the Doctors of the 2000s count for me; saw bits in the 70s when little, didn't appeal. Chris was the 1st & love him for it! What little I got to see of Jodie really amused me, & David I saw the most -- & adore his fast-talking quirkiness! (Also, have great-grandparents named Tennant, so go "kinsman"! 😁) Rest... meh.
I feel the opposite. The modern series hasn't really done much for me at all. The writing has been weak throughout with only the sporadic good story here and there. Whereas during the 1970's especially, you have great writers, depth and development of characters, superb acting, and just great stories all around(many of them with powerful social commentary). And lastly, I don't think any of the modern actors to play the Doctor can touch Tom Baker or even Jon Pertwee. They don't call it the "golden era" for nothing, ya know.
“ I don’t wanna go” then then the TARDIS starts crashing towards it really hurt seeing tennant go but we needed him back facts💯
Peter Capaldi is my personal favorite because he was my introduction to Doctor Who
For me it’s Tom Baker for the same reason
They say you never forget your first doctor
Pertwee, but Baker owned it. Then Sylvester,, Matt and David, who I reckon had best writing, no 1
15: Fugitive
14: 8th
13: 13th
12: 6th
11: War
10: 5th
9: 1st
8: 2nd
7: 7th
6: 3rd
5: 9th
4: 11th
3: 12th
2: 4th
1: 10th
Smith is the best in my opinion. He brought a sense of wonder back to the Doctor that, while an understated necessity to the role, I feel was overlooked in other performances.
Tom Baker is the definitive Doctor. Youth will always pick Tennant but Baker is legend
I don't know why some younger people can't or rather won't watch the classic series. They are missing out. I don't get it. I know what quality is and it has zero to do with when something was made. Many of my favorite films and tv shows come from before I was born. Many of my favorite albums are from before I was born. It's about quality and substance.
For me, Tom Baker IS the only Dr. Who. I feel he should be no. 1, disappointed he isn't. 4th and final answer 😂
Tom Baker is the only true doctor.
David Bradley and Christopher will always be my favorites
Whittaker’s stay wasn’t that short. Most of the doctors have done it for 3 years
No offense, this is so off for me!
Putting Hurt under Whittaker is a crime.
