Since 1963, Doctor Who has been revolutionary. The show has reacted to the changing world, always left wing, always supporting the individual. Eccleston, Tennant, Smith and Capaldi magnificently portayed a man who had no centre, but was always determined to do (occasional glitches aside) the right thing. My recommendation is to watch the lot but stop at Chris Chibnall (Jodie Whittaker), Jodie could have been a fine - even exceptional - Doctor, but she was undermined by Chibnall's pathetic insistence on resuscitating a sory from more than twenty years ago that had absolutely zero relevance to the Davies/Moffat rebirth (and wouldn't even have worked as intended in the Sylvester McCoy era). Chibnall's laughable idea was that the character played by William Hartnell in 1963 was not the first Doctor - with that single notion he disrespected those people - old series and new series -who had built a mesmerising mythology. Amyway - enough, Everything before Chibnall is magnificent.
