I really enjoy McGann's BF stuff granted some of the early stuff isn't to good but it does get better, I find most of the BF stuff a lot better than new who.

I really recommend Rob Shearman's 6th Doctor story Jubilee.

It ended up on the tv as Dalek. Although different, both versions are excellent.

I might try Chimes of Midnight with McGann, as that's one everyone seems to go on about.

Watching classic who from the beginning skipped the first few epsoises and started with the daleks

I might just skip some of the 1st and 2nd doctor stories, some great stories but also seem a lot of poorer stuff that has not aged well at all

Suspension of disbelief. It helps.....

Was going to watch them in order but have decided to watch one of my favourite classic who story's the daemons. Fantastic episode with its great atmosphere and hammer horror vibe

Enjoyed The Sunmakers on THC, especially the intimation that Leela & co run over two corpses cough.

Now we're onto The Key To Time (well, most of it haha) so I can now revel in Mary Tamm's bum ahem.

You need something to get through The Armageddon Factor.

The Key to Time is both brilliant and dire all rolled into one. Ribos is an utter delight, Armageddon is five episodes too long. It's summed up so well by The Stones of Blood which is half brilliant and half shite.

Sadly BBC only gave them 4 of the KTT stories. I personally like TAF though, each to their own etc. I notice you haven't mentioned The Pirate Planet
