Tom used to live around my English village. Never met him until both of us tried to cross the road in the rain on day. I looked at him. He looked back thinking he was about to be recognised and ready for any comment. I just said - "It's pissing hard again." That's how we English are....
Tom Baker was my 1st into. to Doctor Who as a child on PBS. He was what I remember till the New Doctor Who came out 5 years ago and Tourchwood. The new made me remember. It is one of the reasons why I love old Sci-Fi movies with bad special effects and love old movies with great special effects.
@Drkfantum I agree. My first doctor was technically Eccleston but i consider my first tom baker since after series one was over he made me watch all the series with baker. He is my official fav and first.
Ah yes, Tom Baker and Queen. Two of the absolute best at what they did. Tom Baker will always be the best Dr. Who by far. You also have to consider the wonderful timeperiod when he played the part too. There are just so many reasons as to why the Baker years were clearly the best.
I didn't start really watching Dr. Who that faithfully until Tom Baker took over the part. Then I fell in love! He is so eccentric and strange, but that's what I like about him. He infused the character with so much more energy and vitality than the previous 3 actors who played the role. I knew in advance that he was going to regenerate into another incarnation at the end of "Logopolis", but when it actually happened, I went sick on my stomach! I knew it was the end of an era! I felt so sad!
I saw this show for a brief time years back when I was trying to beat Turok 2 and immediately fell in love with it. I was very young, then, and have spend so long trying to find out who played the Doctor at the time. Tom Baker is obviously my favorite. I thought the rest sucked.

I like drwho when it was a kid's show for kid's who aren't childish, but I also like it now that it's for horny college aged gay people. Are ya buyin' that?
Aye, th' Doctorrr knows a thin` orrr too, but tharrr`s still a lot a he could learrrn frrrom yon th' Captain harrr, and a bottle of rum! Especially when 't comes t` sittin` rrround th' Captains table an' tuckin` in t` me finest fishfin`errrs,Garrr,and a bottle o' rum!
For American Whovians like myself, Tom Baker was the first Doctor we experienced (he was the Doctor when the series finally hit American television). Although I agree that David is fantastic, Tom's will always be the face in my head when I think of "The Doctor". Loved this tribute, thank you.
Best Doctors ever IMO:
1. Pertwee
2. Baker/Tennant (tie)
3. McCoy
4. Davidson
5. Troughton
6. Hartnell
7. Everyone else
8. Colin Baker

This song should be called Adventurous Rhapsody 'cause bohemian means adventurous or adventurer.
I share the personalities of all 12 Doctors, but I am the 13th Doctor, son of 10th Doctor.

Tom Baker was my first and to this day still my favourite. Whenever I think of Doctor Who I think of Tom to me he was the Doctor and the best.
