This is a question Getting Old

Drimble asks: When was it last brought home to you just how old you're getting? We last asked this in 2004, and you're eight years older now. Eight. Years.

For me...
I found Jon Pertwee a bit like a try-hard David Niven, pretty cravat but no substance. And too much like a disciplinarion heamaster. (exact thoughts of a then 8 year old)

Tom Baker will always be Dr. Who for me. Quirky, created a trend of long scarves at my school, and he always had some cute chick sidekick in tow, with no yucky romance bits.

Then when Tristan from All Creatures Great and Small came along with his foppish hair, plummy accent and Etonesque overtones, I sort of drifted away from Dr. Who as I knew it would never be the same.

Sylvester McCoy is "my" Doctor Who,
as that was the point at which it became something I watched, rather than something my dad watched that I also watched.

Well, that and my huge, teenage crush on Sophie Aldred.
