Imagine a Big Brother gameshow scenario where each week the Doctors nominate which one of them gets evicted from the TARDIS....

Which Doctor would be likely to be booted first and who do we reckon would last the course and be the survivor?

Taking into account personalities, mannerisms, humility and overall likeability, I think it fair to say that the first to be given the boot would be either Colin Baker (his hysterical manner would grate with the other Doctors) or perhaps William Hartnell (who might come across as too moany and his older age could alienate him.)

The safest bet for the longstayer would be Peter Davison (just so nicey nice).

It is hard to call a runner up..possibly Pertwee, Eccleston or Troughton (usually all good natured)

I would suspect Matt Smith would irritate with his quirks and Tennant would be perceived as OTT. Tom Baker would almost certainly leave hair in the shower and this would definitely annoy, so he would go quickly.

Who do you think would go first and who would win?

Tom Baker would be the John McCririck of the house!

Pertwee would annoy the others. Tom Baker's wit would keep him in the house.

Colin Baker would be kept around for the entertainment value of him shouting at everyone. McCoy would try and turn everyone against each other and Eccleston would quit after the first week.

Michael Grade would from somewhere outside the house make sure Colin Baker would be evicted after the second week!

It's about public popularity, so T Baker and Tennant would be the final two with the daft teenage girl voting power going in Tennant's favour.

The big love affair would be Troughton and Smith, I bet they'd have a major bromance.

Task rewards would include jelly babies, punishments licorice allsorts.


"I fart in the jacuzzi now. Farting in the jacuzzi is cool."

"I say, is this the diary room? It's bigger on the inside, isn't it?!"

"There. I've reversed the polarity of the one-way mirrors, so now we are free to escape."


"One packet of custard and a fish finger? Is that it?"
"Well what did you expect to find in the store cupboard? Unlimited rice pudding?!"
"Oh no. I'm afraid there isn't any celery."

It would be fairly evenly matched until the 8th Doctor stripped off for a dip in the hot tub (yes, that is him!). I think Big Brother's fan base (teenage girls and Gay men) would quickly pick their winner.

That sounds about right to me.
