I'm so old that I go back to the very first Doctor, William Hartnell, in 1963. I've kept in touch with the series ever since although I am am not a "can't miss an episode" kind of viewer. I kind of lost interest when, in an exercise of political correctness, they made the latest Doctor a woman. After over 50 years of male Doctors I suppose it had to happen. I did watch a couple of episodes in the last few days ... just for old times sake.
