1. When did you start watching and why? I can't remember, however my older sisters watched the show, so probably as soon as I was born.
2. What was your first serial/episode? The earliest I can remember is Planet Of The Spiders, the last Jon Pertwee episode.
3. Which serials/episodes have you seen? Most of them.
3a. Favourite? Old Who: With something like 700 episode (and that's only in Classic Who) and 159 stories, who can choose. I'll try to narrow it down though.
The Three Doctor, The Five Doctors and The Two Doctors (multiple Doctors are always fun – it almost doesn't matter what the story is about.),
1st – The Dalek Invasion Of Earth
2nd – The Tomb Of The Cybermen
3rd – Invasion Of The Dinosaurs, The Green Death (both for Benton)
4th – Ark In Space – for Ian Marter's well done making sure Elizabeth Sladen didn't flash the camera. Face Of Evil
5th – Snakedance – for comforting Tegan, Mawdryn Undead
6th – Revelation Of The Daleks
7th – Battlefield, Remembrance Of The Daleks, Silver Nemesis
3b. Favourite? New Who: Blink, The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances, The Doctor's Daughter
4. Are your friends/family interested in the show? Yes, it's all their fault.
5. Which Doctor is your favourite? Seven maybe, although it's hard they all have parts that I like and don't like.
6. Which Doctor is your least favourite? Nine, didn't like him at all. Six but I think that's more about how he was written than about Colin Baker's portrayal. In Revelation of the Daleks, he was superb.
7. Which TV companion is your favourite? Benton – although technically he wasn't considered a companion. Jamie, Sarah-Jane, Leela, Ace, Martha, Donna,
8. Which TV companion is your least favourite? Rose. I liked Jackie and Mickey much better.
9. Do you listen to the Big Finish audios? I haven't, although I've been meaning to.
9a. If so, which is your favourite?
9b. Also: which Big Finish companion is your favourite?
10. Have you listened to any non-Big Finish audios? No
10a. If so, which is your favourite?
11. Have you read any of the novels or short stories? Yes, but I should read more.
11a. Have you written any of the novels or short stories? No.
11b. Which is your favourite? I don't have a favourite.
12. Have you read any of the comics? No.
12a. You guessed it – which is your favourite?
13. Do you watch any of the spinoffs (e.g. Torchwood, Sarah Jane Adventures)? I tried Torchwood but didn't like it or any of the characters (including Jack.) Sarah Jane Adventures on the other hand was excellent.
13a. Which is your favourite? Hands down SJA is the better one. I think it's more like Classic Who.
14. Is there any particular episode/book/audio/comic you desperately want to watch/listen to/read? The lost ones.
15. Do you write fanfic for Doctor Who? No, just read it.
15a. If so, post a snippet of a work-in-progress (or several)!
16. Do you create Doctor Who icons? I did an icon of the unit logo
16a. Let's see a sample! http://p-userpic.livejournal.com/57542318/11174974
17. Recommend a fanfic/icon/fanvid/fancomic/fancreation!
jinxed_wood's Pit Stop, Not Quite A Normal Day by schizophrenic, Strange Chaps With Bad Teeth series by MikeDavid @ TTH, Twins series by LE McMurray @ The Jumper Bay, Birds Of A Feather by Cliff Chen, Crossed Broadwords by Kristin Beall. I'm sure there are others.
18. Have you been to any Doctor Who conventions? Yes, Doctor Who - Inside The TARDIS in 2005 with Colin Baker, Sylvester McCoy and Katy Manning. Although I suppose it's not really a convention.
19. Have you ever dressed up as a Doctor Who character? No.
20. Do you own any Doctor Who merchandise? Books, DVDs. I bought a Dalek egg at Easter. I kept the little electronic sound chip that says EXTERMINATE!
21. Are you a fan of Russell T. Davies? He seems to have done fairly well for Classic Who fans.
21a. Steven Moffat? He's written some of my favourite episodes.
21b. Paul Cornell? Haven't really cared that much for his episodes.
22. What say you to Season 6b? Eh?
23. The UNIT dating controversy? This is that first I've heard that there is one.
24. The Blinovitch Limitation Effect? This at least I've heard of.
25. Multi-Doctor episodes? Love them.
26. What's your favourite Doctor Who technobabble? Reverse the polarity of the neutron flow.
27. Have you watched other TV shows exclusively because of the presence of Doctor Who actors? Yes.
28. Have you met any of the actors? When I went to Doctor Who - Inside The TARDIS there was the autograph line, unfortunately I was sick at the time so didn't really talk to any of them.
28a. Travelled to any filming locations? No.
29. What do you think of "The Curse of Fatal Death"? Very funny and for something so silly, it was very Doctor Who, but then Steven Moffat wrote it.
30. Do you have any fannish opinions that you think are fairly unpopular? I don't care for the Daleks. I never found them scary and I can't stand Rose.
31. What's your favourite pairing? The only good ship is the TARDIS. Although secretly, I'm kinda an Ian & Barbara shipper.
32. What pairing(s) won't you touch with a really long pole? Incestuous ones.
