Of all the available Who, apart from Web of Fear & Shada, I've purchased all of Docs: 1 to 5. This doesn't mean I've watched all of the others (as of yet) however..

In terms of the existing released original series, & ones still to watch that I own:
-The Web Planet (not sure on this one)
-The Tenth Planet (looking forward to)
-The Moonbase (yes, okay, I did get around to purchasing for those that saw my thread: "The Moonbase & is it worth purchasing?", particularly if you've already seen/ got the 2 remaining complete episodes on Lost in Time.. I did purchase this for $4NZD though -a bargain -it helps that there was a 25% sale & I had a $20 gift card )
-The Ice Warriors (looking forward to)
-The Enemy of the World (ditto)
-The Keys to Time season (really looking forward to -missed it in NZ when it was original on in 1980 & again when we moved to Aussie in the early 80's, even with all the repeats the ABC kindly gave us -I had no idea the UK missed out on the classics not being repeated, until I recently saw on one of the extras -wow)
-Nightmare of Eden (not sure about)
-The Horns of Nimon (ditto)

Moving on to the 6th & 7th:

-Timelash (don't own or viewed, is it worth purchasing -?)
-Trial of a TimeLord season (do own, somewhat looking forward to view)
-Time and the Rani (don't own & not fussed about even viewing after seeing Paradise Towers )
-Delta and the Bannermen (ditto)
-Dragonfire (ditto)
-The Happiness Patrol (ditto)
-Battlefield (do own, somewhat looking forward to view as it has the Brig on it )

New Who:
All of 9th seen, chunks of the 10th that my previous flatmate banned me from watching (will get around to as they are repeated quite a bit), seen all of 11th

Although I've far from seen every surviving episode, I've managed to watch at least one featuring every Doctor and companion so far (although I think Katarina may have appeared in Day of Armageddon for all of a minute).

I've never seen a Troughton, Ben and Polly episode though.
Well, in that case, these may interest you:

Original BBC Trailer for Power of the Daleks:

The Moonbase clip:

Coming soon to DVD trailer for The War Machines:

I'd really reccommend you purchase the War Machines. It's such a strong story. Plus it introduces Ben and Polly to the DW universe. I love this story and have seen it loads of times since the DVD release in 2008.

It's quite cheap too!

Oops sorry just saw this. I actually already own The War Machines, but thank you for the suggestion (and yes it's very good). I'll definitely be getting The Moonbase as well when it comes down in price a bit.

hardly seen any of the 80's Doctor's stuff, I've just always avoided them cos I knew, when I first started watching Dr Who in the early noughties, that the 80's was kinda when it went downhill. I have been watching more of 5 and actually think quite a lot of his stories are good though, however, although there is some good things about them, most of 6 and 7's stuff I just find pretty unentertaining or unenjoyable, so I've only seen one or two stories from their era. Plus, although I like the 2nd Doctor, I've not seen much of his, partly cos lots of it's missing, also cos a lot of the time I've found myself either focusing on colour Dr Who or the very beginning with William Hartnell (actually, with the 50th having just gone I'm watching a lot of Hartnell's right now and I'm really surprised to find people don't like him, I thought he was a bit to hostile when I was a kid, but now that I've watched quite a lot with him he's turning into one of the most childish Doctor's almost, he's always hooting and celebrating little stuff )

Yeah, I like that about him. Whimsical. All the other Doctors are made from different bits of Hartnell.

The War Machines is unique in being the only time in the black-and-white era when an entirely new TARDIS crew joined the Doctor with no 'overlapping' companion to ease the transition.

Peter Cushing. I must admit though I have not watched Peter Davison-Sylvester Mccoy since their episodes were on Gold 7am-10am on Saturday and Sunday mornings.

I used to really love gettng up early back then just for that reason!

Now you'd be lucky to get me out of bed before 10 on a day off

You could also say that although it was the first episode. Susan was an 'Overlapping companion'. We just didn't see her earlier life in the TARDIS!

I've watched every episode of every Doctor plus the Peter Cushing movies and pretty much every Doctor Who related Big Finish audio (with the exception of the last 20 or so which I haven't caught up with yet).

I haven't seen Scream of the Shalka yet, though.
