21 002 The Daleks

Bit of a difficult choice this time. A lot of really good ones! I deleated from this list, the ones that I didn't like as much. Then I found that I had 11 left.

I had a dilemma. Which one to get rid of? I had to get rid of The Romans, even though it's one of the better Hartnell stories that survives in full.

I just love historical stories, but I couldn't keep it in, sadly.

So glad I kept The Girl In The Fireplace in, as Sophia Myles is brilliant as Madame De Pompadour. She's good in Spooks too, in Series 9. Also glad that The Brain of Morbius is in the list, as it's my all-time favourite Fourth Doctor story.

I'm glad that Remembrance is also there as it's my second favourite Seventh Doctor story.

Now I'm looking forward to the final heat, in a week's time.

Started of quite easy as there were several Smith Snorefests in there but it a bitch getting it down to ten. Had to leave Remembrance Of The Daleks, State Of Decay and The Androids Of Tara out, all good stories that on another day many have made another top ten list.

A shame the wonderfully atmospheric and creepy Ambassadors of Death didn't make it through the last round. Great echoes of that story in Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon:

01 086 The Masque of Mandrogora
02 090 The Robots of Death
12 115 Logopolis
13 084 The Brain of Morbius
14 212 The Pandorica Opens/The Big Bang
17 137 Attack of the Cybermen
20 214 The Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon
21 002 The Daleks
24 041 The Web of Fear
25 143 The Mysterious Planet
