Actually, I kinda agree with most of your picks below.

Tom Baker - yes, although I did start watching the show as a very young boy and for a time thought that THE doctor was the originator of the role, William Hartnell, I don't really remember my childhood viewings of the show, only the icons - the TARDIS, the Daleks, etc.. For a time I thought Jon Pertwee was the best doctor (after a gap in viewings spanning all of Troughton and much of Pertwee), until about Tom Baker's second or third season. Yeah, Tennant has been best of the revival doctors so far.

I never saw much of Jo Grant; when I caught up with the show, Katy Manning was leaving and Elizabeth Sladen (Sarah Jane) was arriving. I thought she was sexy... until Nyssa (Sarah Sutton) came along... and then came Nicola Bryant - mildly annoying character, but best boobs to ever grace the console room. Of the "new" companions, sexiest would be a toss-up between Jenna Coleman (Clara) and one-timer Michelle Ryan, though oddly I find a certain mature sexiness in Alex Kingston. Among guest stars, I found Orla Brady as Mother Superious of the Papal Mainframe Tasha Lem rather sexy too.

I heartily agree - Catherine Tate - most annoying

Yeah, "Bill" not a watchable companion IMHO.

I agree, Adam West will always be Batman.

Well....you probably would not agree with my picks on Doctor Who either....i.e.

Best Doctor Who = Tom Baker

2nd best = David Tennant

Sexiest companion = Katy Manning

Most annoying companion = Catherine Tate

Ugliest companion = Pearl Mackie.

I never really considered Sean Connery right for the part of Bond because while he was a good actor Ian Flemng wrote Bond to be an Englishman and Connery, Brosnan and Lazenby are not English. Timothy Dalton was too bland in the role and Daniel Craig was way too violent for my tastes....so I liked Moore's tongue in cheek portrayal.

I guess I prefer tongue in cheek portrayals because the best Batman for me has always been Adam West and I don't like any of the modern Batman actors.

Roger Moore was a fine performer....even though he was never likely to win an Oscar, he ways entertained me.

R.I.P. Roger Moore

From one of your tweets: "Roger Moore - the greatest Bond of all"...

Most entertaining, definitely. Best Bond? I think Connery deserves that distinction; I'm sure some will agree with me and others will disagree.

Moore certainly leaves a wonderful on-screen legacy as Simon Templar (The Saint), Brett Sinclair (The Persuaders) and of course James Bond, among other screen roles.The Bond films in which he appeared were certainly spectacular for the grandeur of their settings and special effects, the lovely ladies who played opposite him, and, of course, the villains. But he never really seemed to take his role seriously - there was always the silly pun, wisecrack, moment of sheer absurdity, or fracture of the fourth wall. OK, maybe Connery did all of those things too, but as Bond, Moore took it to a whole other level. Always entertaining and thoroughly watchable again and again, just not "best Bond" IMHO.

One of the shoots we did in The Bahamas.

As you can see from the raw footage, we did lots of re-takes.
