Doctor Who Thread

[Holmes]

The tenth and eleventh doctors appear to be quite the hotties. I've never seen any of the episodes, but I'm intrigued. Considering there's a sh**tload and most of the earlier ones don't even exist anymore, series 1 is a good place to start? Or are there any particular parts in the earlier series that I should start at, or just read summaries of important events?

Well, I found out you can do a sort of six degrees of separation to connect Jerry Brown with Doctor Who.

Jerry Brown had his gubernatorial portrait painted by Don Bachardy, who was in a relationship with Christopher Isherwood for thirty three years. The BBC aired a biography-type drama a few months ago, titled Christopher and His Kind, with Matt Smith playing Christopher Isherwood. Matt Smith, of course, plays the eleventh doctor in Doctor Who.

Well, more like five degrees, but good enough.
