Well, Eccleston's realised how crap it is and quit...

he said he didnt want to be "stereotyped"

ster·e·o·typed ( P ) Pronunciation Key (str--tpt, stîr-)

Conforming to a social norm; conventional.
Of or relating to stereotypy: stereotyped behavior.

Doesnt mention crap in its definition

I can see why he has made that decision, but he is already an established 'actor' so I wouldn't have thought that he would ALWAYS be remembered for playing the Doctor.

I always think of Wurzel Gummidge whenever Jon Pertwee is mentioned but maybe that is just my age.

I personally really enjoyed his adaptation of the Doctor and am disappointed he's not continuing with it...

Oh well.

I saw him in a really old (must have been early 70s) play where he played a Man Citeh fan (idolised Denis Law) with a Man United wife. The wife was aboot to give birth on the day of a Citeh match and it was all very hilarious.

Eddie Large was in it as well (seriously).

I can understand his decision though...think of all the old doctors. Now name something else they did. Jon Pertwee and Tom Baker are really the ones that i can name one series they were in. Of course Sylvester etc (the later doctors) are probably best forgotten in all aspects

I thought Chris was good but I just didn't enjoy it. Billie Piper got on my tits and it just had the feel of the writer/producers trying too hard to be campy and quirky.

And I am a big kid............

Patrick Troughton was the darts in The Omen.....

There's going to be another series though... anyone who didn't like Christopher Eccleston's Doctor can still wait for that.

Peter Davison - All Creatures Great And Small, A Very Peculiar Practice (which also starred David Troughton, son of Patrick)

I was going to mention Patrick Troughton in the Omen too, but just realised someone's already mentioned that!

I wounder if Christopher Eccleston will come back for the regeneration?

If I remeber correctly, the Dr can only regenerate 12 times - 8 down now then.....

I didnt realise he was in The Omen...i will have to check it out next time. oh and Peter Davison was one of those "later doctors". I thought he was terrible

Peter Davison was my favourite Doctor!
