Great pic, well done. Troughton inspired practically every Doctor that came after him. Davison, Colin Baker, McCoy, McGann and Smith have all spoken about Mr Troughton's impact on them in the preparation for playing the character.

Troughton was awesome, I love his struggles against the Cybermen & the Ice Warriors, those baddies need more love these days :3

All the baddies they have brought back need better stories like those of the past. I think Dalek was very good...but the others don't hold the respect in me the classic series does

Yeah, I've enjoyed the Daleks in the new series, mostly in the first & fourth seasons...Less said about Daleks in Manhattan or underdeveloped New Paradigm Daleks the better lol, but I do feel like they've been over utilized in recent years & that the other classic baddies deserve more stories focusing on them, whether they be normal episodes or season finale big bad material. I feel like all the best Cybermen stories for example are in the classic era, & that the modern cybers keep playing second fiddle to other baddies, like how the daleks stole their thunder in season 2 or "Missy" was controlling them in the last season finale "rolls eyes." I would like to see the returned baddies given stories more like those of the classic era...New Who introduced me to Doctor Who so I still have a fondness for it, but the more I watch of the classic series, the more I tend to favor its style of story telling more, especially the serialized format, makes the Doc's adventures & mysteries seem more challenging & the villains more menacing & fleshed out since it takes multiple episodes to figure out their plans & defeat them. Hopefully the new season will be an improvement over last season, heard the Zygons are returning again :3

Yes.. Less Dalek stories. Bring back the original Cybermen...not the Cybus ones. Make the Sontarans villains again fighting their war with the Rutans, do a good Ice Warriors story, Bring back the Dominators, don't use the human looking Silurians again, bring back the Master...the OLD master not these new silly abominations

Indeed. My favorite companions of all time.
There are some corners of the universe which have bred the most terrible things. Things which act against everything we believe in. They must be fought.

That's one of the best damned quotes from the show. Sums the Doc up perfectly.

He still needs an epic story. I like him but I have yet to see a episode like Blink, Silence in the Library, Genesis of the Daleks, Earthshock etc for him

BBC is making Moffat work on another season of Sherlock but not giving him the green light to do both...it's Sherlock first.
