With every available Doctor Who episode and its wife coming to BBC iPlayer on November 1, how should you approach a Classic and NuWho rewatch? We have options…
And I thought watching all of One Piece was crazy.
You must ABSOLUTELY start with Series 1, Serial 4 - Marco Polo.
The show by that time has really found its footing. Without seeing that, none of the rest makes sense, so it’s not even worth bothering. Don’t settle for the audio or book versions, it’s video or nothing.
Oof - I’m quite happy with recons but for some that would be a tough call… :p
Also you’d miss out on the first Dalek adventure. It’s not the best maybe but it’s probably the story that saved the show and gave it mainstream appeal.
I am a big fan of 60s historicals though and Marco Polo is where the first TARDIS crew feel like a unit.
There’s a very particular reason I chose that specific serial.
I’m guessing scuba diving lessons are a prerequisite…?
More likely a Tardis given the current state of that serial.
For folks who have never seen it I like the episode with Sally Sparrow. Since you said re-watch… I m thinking of making a game of watching new who episodes and trying to spot the references, going back and watching the corresponding classic series. Mix it up a bit
I mean my options as a fan growing up in the wilderness years was basically whatever I had on video/whatever I could borrow or copy off someone else.
And my options now as a father are quite limited to ‘does it have Daleks/Cybermen in?’ That said he watched Midnight recently. He thought it was really funny.
You know, I’ve never thought about this until now. I have two thoughts related to the question.
- Has anyone here watched the episodes in chronological order? https://www.stitchesinti.me/watch
- Is it established fact that the airing order is chronological order on the Doctor’s timeline (more or less)?
